I carry weight meant for giants, I learned to read the danger Before I ever learned to crawl

I learned silence as survival Learned to smile when I was torn

I grew tough instead of human I was hardened, not reborn

I built myself too early just to make it through the pain

Now I'm trying to find the pieces of a kid I never became

Sometimes I look in mirrors and don't know the face I see

It looks older than the years I lived Like someone stole my history

I don't blame who I became But I miss who I could've been

I'm rebuilding with shaking hands Starting over from within

I built myself too early just to make it through the pain

Now I'm trying to find the pieces of a kid I never became

I built myself too early just to make it through the pain

Now I'm trying to find the pieces of a kid I never became
