Lyrics

Hook
You can see it in me
Every scar got a story underneath
Every win came wrapped around defeat
I still carry old battles when I sleep
You can see it in me
All the miles that I walked through the rain
All the nights I was losing my faith
Still standing, but I ain't been the same
Verse 1
I grew up where tomorrow wasn't promised
Where sirens sang louder than lullabies
Had to learn how to read people's intentions
Just by looking deep into their eyes
Seen good people buried before their time
Seen dreams disappear right in the street
Seen mothers trying hard to stay hopeful
While the pressure kept knocking them off their feet
I learned young that survival got a price tag
And success don't erase what you've been through
The money got bigger, the houses got nicer
But some memories still cut right through
Hook
You can see it in me
Every scar got a story underneath
Every win came wrapped around defeat
I still carry old battles when I sleep
You can see it in me
All the miles that I walked through the rain
All the nights I was losing my faith
Still standing, but I ain't been the same
Verse 2
People see the shine but miss the sacrifices
The funerals, the heartbreak, the doubt
The nights I sat alone with my thoughts
Trying to figure what this life about
Some friends turned strangers over jealousy
Some promises faded into smoke
Some lessons came disguised as disasters
Some wounds came from people I trusted most
Now I move with gratitude and caution
Thankful for every blessing I've received
Because life taught me nothing lasts forever
Except the things you choose to believe
Bridge
I got angels in my memories
And ghosts in my rearview too
Both keep reminding me
Why I can't quit
Why I gotta keep pushing through
Final Hook
You can see it in me
The victories and the pain combined
Every loss left a mark on my soul
Every lesson changed my mind
You can see it in me
But don't mistake the hurt for defeat
Everything I survived built the man
Standing on his own two feet
Outro
Yeah...
The road got rough...
The nights got long...
The pressure got heavy...
But I made it through.
And if you look close enough...
You can see it in me.
