Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah
From dawn 'til dusk, books piled high
Expectations looming like stormy skies
Teacher preaching, "You gotta excel"
Grades and school stars to impress yourself
Yeah, pressure builds like a ticking clock
Uh, parents push hard for that perfect shot
But in the silence of my room at night
I'm just tryna find what feels right
Social media screens light up like
Faces so flawless, lives disguised
Scrolling through feeds filled with envy and fame
Wondering why I ain't got no game
Grew up under this weighty strain
Trying to break free from the chains
School, society pulling me tight
But in my heart's where I take flight
Grew up under this weighty strain
Trying to break free from the chains
School, society pulling me tight
But in my heart's where I take flight
Friends say, "Keep your head high" (Head high)
But every day feels like a fight (Like a fight)
College essays and deadlines creep (Yeah)
Stress eats away while I barely sleep
Snapshots of success on TikTok screens
Living out dreams through filters and memes
Reality blurred, just chasing likes
Feeling trapped in someone else's hype
Pressure cook a mind, can't unwind
Caught between what's real and what you find
Yearning for peace, but it's nowhere to be found
Doubts creeping in when the world slows down
Grew up under this weighty strain
Trying to break free from the chains
School, society pulling me tight
But in my heart's where I take flight
Grew up under this weighty strain (Yeah)
Trying to break free from the chains (Yeah)
School, society pulling me tight
But in my heart's where I take flight
In the chaos of expectations and noise
Yeah, I find solace in every wordless voice (Oh)
Through the struggle, there's a light that gleams
Gotta trust myself through all these dreams (Oh)
Grew up under this weighty strain
Trying to break free from the chains
School, society pulling me tight
But in my heart's where I take flight
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
