Another year, but nothing's changed,
I'm still the same, but I feel so strange.
I used to stand, now I'm feeling small,
Afraid of failing, afraid to fall.
I've worked so hard, but now I'm scared,
Of what's ahead, of what I've bared.
My body's tired, my mind's a mess,
What if I'm not enough? What if I can't pass the test?
Why does it feel like I'm losing control?
Why do I feel like I'm losing my soul?
I built this life with my blood and my sweat,
But they'll tear it down, and they won't regret.
They're staring at screens, while I break my back,
Chasing fame, but what do they lack?
Streamers, influencers, their world's so fake,
No one needs them, but they're all they take.
I bake the bread, I sweep the streets,
I heal the sick, I carry the heat,
But they're out there, living in the light,
While I'm stuck here, fading into the night.
Why does it feel like I'm losing control?
Why do I feel like I'm losing my soul?
I built this life with my blood and my sweat,
But they'll tear it down, and they won't regret.
I'm just a man, no more, no less,
Fighting battles they won't confess.
They don't see what keeps this world alive,
All they care about is just getting by.
I've worked the grind, the endless hours,
But all they want are digital flowers.
No one knows the weight I bear,
But they're too lost in their fake air.
Why does it feel like I'm losing control?
Why do I feel like I'm losing my soul?
I built this life with my blood and my sweat,
But they'll tear it down, and they won't regret.
Why does it feel like I'm losing control?
Why do I feel like I'm losing my soul?
I built this life with my blood and my sweat,
But they'll tear it down, and they won't regret.
The fear won't fade, the night won't end,
I close my eyes, but I can't pretend.
I built this all, but it's slipping through,
What if tomorrow doesn't come for me too?
