Lyrics

Just 13, when the world went cold

And mom left me with him and now the devil had hold

But he ain't drink, he ain't smoke, he just hit when he spoke

He said I looked like my mom and every word was a choke

Ever since my little brother was born

It was like I didn't exist unless it was exactly for that war

Got beat on the daily and then pushed past the edge

Had that ninemm, put it right to my head

I pulled that trigger but then it jammed in place

I guess death, ain't ready just to look me in the face

Laid there shaking with my soul half gone

Like if life don't kill me then I'll write this song

There were some nights when I prayed to feel less hate

But the devil in the mirror just laughed it's too late

This is the end of the boy who I was

This is for the nights when I bled for the love

This is for the click that could've took me away

But it didn't so I'm here, I got something to say

This is the end of the silence and fear

This is the end of the screams that no one could hear

I ain't break, I evolve, Just exactly in the dark

So if this is goodbye then I'm leaving my mark

17 kicked out, nothing to pack

And no love in the house and just the weight on my back

Lived on the streets and then a place I couldn't afford

1500 a month, California's at war

Tried to drink myself just out of existence

Three times almost gone and still no resistance

Nobody called, nobody came

I was losing my soul and forgot my name

The silence was loud and the nights were long

I was screaming in my head to feel like I belonged

Even pain felt like that, it knew my face

And so I slept with shame and a ghost in my place

Wrote rhymes to a God that I couldn't believe

I laid my trauma on beats just to help me breathe

I was dead to the world but then I still woke up

I guess rock bottom talks when you don't give a fuck

This is the end of the boy who I was

This is for the nights when I bled for the love

This is for the click that could've took me away

But it didn't so I'm here, I got something to say

This is the end of the silence and fear

This is the end of the screams that no one could hear

I ain't break, I evolve, Just exactly in the dark

So if this is goodbye then I'm leaving my mark

20 years old, moved back in with mom

And with my old girl cause you know I thought I found calm

But the rage came with me, I was screaming and breaking

Controlling the one person who stayed when I was shaking

I became a father and it made me sick

She saw the raw monster but then she never quit

She held me through the fire while I tore rust down

She still wore her ring while I burned this house

Then I signed up, military dreams

But war just doesn't fix what I couldn't redeem

Came home with a limp with these nightmares in my chest

My career was all gone, mind cracked with no rest

Had blood on my boots and with the fire on my bones

I couldn't define peace even back at home

Now every salute feels like a part of a grave

And now I march with regret through the lives that I saved

This is the end of the boy who I was

This is for the nights when I bled for the love

This is for the click that could've took me away

But it didn't so I'm here, I got something to say

This is the end of the silence and fear

This is the end of the screams that no one could hear

I ain't break, I evolve, Just exactly in the dark

So if this is goodbye then I'm leaving my mark
