The painful truth
The burdens from our youth
Heavy is a mind that's been forced to fight
From birth with nail and tooth
Raised as a product of fear
Guided by a violent hand
Shaped by the words you hear
But still too young to understand
That you were forged under pressure and hate
You lay your head down in a broken home
You couldn't help that you were bound by fate
Destined to walk this path alone
Your parents made you who you are today
Now you're a carbon copy of everything you hate
The very person you swore you'd never become
Burdens of youth
Damage that can't be undone
Burdens of youth
Damage that can't be undone
The burdens of your youth
Is damage that can't be undone
