(Verse 1)
I walk these empty roads with shadows at my side,
Every cracked and broken corner, where my heart used to reside,
They say a smile can hide the tears, but I'm not smiling now,
Just a silent victim in a world that won't allow.
I gave my all to dreams that crumbled, like dust in the wind,
And all I got in return was a voice they'd silence again.
(Chorus)
I didn't ask for much, just a chance to be free,
But you came with your silence and you took my right to speak.
Now I'm standing here alone, with the weight that's hard to bear,
Sad, not mad, just lost in a world that doesn't care.
I hope you see the truth, in the shadows of my pain,
I'm asking for my children, help me place the blame.
(Verse 2)
It's a bitter pill to swallow, when you've fought for what is yours,
But I can't keep on hiding, it's time to close those doors.
"Why are you single?" They ask me with a glance,
They don't see the battles fought, they don't know the dance.
With every step I take, I'm reclaiming all that's lost,
If I've gotta walk this road alone, it's worth the heavy cost.
(Chorus)
I didn't ask for much, just a chance to be free,
But you came with your silence and you took my right to speak.
Now I'm standing here alone, with the weight that's hard to bear,
Sad, not mad, just lost in a world that doesn't care.
I hope you see the truth, in the shadows of my pain,
I'm asking for my children, help me place the blame.
(Bridge)
Blind to love once promised, a promise now betrayed,
But in my kids' laughter, I can find a better way.
They're the light that guides me home, through the nights that felt so dark,
And every tear I've shed has built this mother's heart.
(Chorus)
I didn't ask for much, just a chance to be free,
But you came with your silence and you took my right to speak.
Now I'm standing here alone, with the weight that's hard to bear,
Sad, not mad, just lost in a world that doesn't care.
I hope you see the truth, in the shadows of my pain,
I'm asking for my children, help me place the blame.
(Outro)
So I turn this page now, my heart's no longer chained,
It's time to break the silence, let my voice rise again.
And though the road is heavy, I'll carry it with pride,
Sad but not mad, just a mother who won't hide.

Don't hide the world let you down not the other way around
Title: "Turn It Back (For You)"Verse 1:
You don't have to turn back time to turn it back,
The moments we lost still leave a track.
I walked through fire, bent and broke,
Carried the weight so you'd never choke.I've been the shadow to your burning sun,
Fought your battles, let you hold the gun.
You don't know the storms I had to fight,
To give you the chance to live your light.Chorus:
I did that for you, all the scars I bear,
Tore through the darkness so you'd find air.
J1 and B, I carved this path,
So step ahead while I walk back.
No need to undo what was already done,
The future's in your hands—just run, just run.Verse 2:
You don't see the nights I prayed for strength,
The sleepless wars, the endless length.
I traded my peace so you'd have a shot,
Left pieces of me in places you forgot.But I wouldn't turn back—nah, not for me,
You're the proof of what I hoped to see.
Each choice I made was a brick in the road,
To carry the weight you'll never know.Chorus:
I did that for you, bore the pain alone,
Bled through the cracks so you'd call it home.
J1 and B, I gave you the stage,
So write the story, turn the page.
The past is a shadow—don't look behind,
The clock ain't broken; it's all in your mind.Bridge:
Every wound I carried was a lesson to teach,
You don't have to turn back, it's all within reach.
The clock's on fire, but the flame is you,
What you believe will make it true.Outro:
You don't have to rewind, just start anew,
I lived this life so you'd have a view.
J1 and B, this is my vow,
I've turned it back—your time is now.
Go ahead, take the wheel, don't wait,
I paid the price, now rewrite your fate
They think (mindset) . They are you illi
lUl the you you used to be maybe? Not a Time loop just letting you see that side
