(Intro)
This is the war, the battlefield inside,
where my demons dance and my angels hide.
Fighting for a life that’s out of control,
but the weight of my past keeps breaking my soul.

(Verse 1)
Every step I take, I'm a match to the flame,
demons in my shadow, whisperin’ my name.
They don’t want me to rise,
they just feed on my doubt,
keep me locked in a cycle I can’t claw out.
Been at war with myself, but I’m battle-scarred,
every dream that I bled for still feels too far.
Wrote my pain into verses, let the ink run deep,
but the wounds don’t heal, they just talk in my sleep.
Look in the mirror, but I don’t see me,
just a ghost of a man that I used to be.
Told myself it gets better, but that’s a lie,
I ain’t living- I’m just learning how to survive.

(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah, I’m stuck in the silence, but it's screaming my name,
every truth I buried got me drowning in shame.
Told myself to fight, but I’m frozen in place,
lost inside memories I can’t erase.

(Chorus)
This is the war, the battlefield inside,
where my demons dance and my angels hide.
Fighting for a life that’s out of control,
but the weight of my past keeps breaking my soul.

(Verse 2)
Try to speak my pain, but they don’t comprehend,
like I’m talkin’ in a language that they’ll never understand.
I been gasping for air in a world full of smoke,
drowning in the questions that I never spoke.
They tell me "hold on," but the grip is too tight,
i been clawing at the dark, tryna drag in some light.
But the past is a chain, and it cuts to the bone,
i got crowds all around me, still feelin’ alone.
I been searching for peace in a warzone mind,
where the bullets are words and they hit every time.
Every time I get close, it slips through my hands,
like a ghost in the night, like a castle of sand.

(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah, I’m stuck in the silence, but it's screaming my name,
every truth I buried got me drowning in shame.
Told myself to fight, but I’m frozen in place,
lost inside memories I can’t erase.

(Chorus)
This is the war, the battlefield inside,
where my demons dance and my angels hide.
Fighting for a life that’s out of control,
but the weight of my past keeps breaking my soul.

(Bridge)
I been walkin’ through fire with burns on my skin,
tryna climb out of hell, but it pulls me back in.
Every lesson I learned got a price I regret,
every sin that I carried still pays me in debt.
But I bite down hard, I don’t fold, I don’t break,
i been shattered before, but I rise from the ache.
They said I was done, but I’m built from the pain,
turn my blood into lyrics and let it remain.

(Outro)
Yeah, the struggle’s real, but so is the fight,
i keep walkin’ through the darkest nights.
No matter the pain, no matter the cost,
ikeep goin’ even when I feel lost.
