Zloy Rock — Redemption

Shadows follow me for years behind.
I caught a fade and closed my eyes.
People were breaking under dirty designs,
While I kept smiling through all their cries.
I betrayed souls without feeling called,
Burned every bridge for power and lies.
Inside my chest, just wires and steel; outside,
Sharp suits and expensive knives.
But every night, forgotten faces return,
Watching in silence through smoking glass.
And all my walls poured out of concrete,
Start to crack like they were never meant to last.
I don't ask heaven for forgiveness; I was worse than beats for far too long.
But if there's still one road to redemption,
I will walk it through the ruins I've become.
Let every scar become a reminder of the lives that I destroyed.
I'm searching for redemption,
Where I killed all light before.
A light before.
I saw fear in the eyes of everyone who walked away without a word.
The world, to me, was only paper currency,
Where human souls could all be sold.
And now the silence crushes every corner.
No enemies, no friends remain.
Only guilt, like rust inside the machine,
Slowly eating through my veins.
I'm no hero; I won't be a saint.
My past still drags me underground.
But if there's someone willing to stay,
Maybe I can learn to be human now.
Be human now.
I don't ask heaven for forgiveness; I was worse than beats for far too long.
But if there's still one road to redemption,
I will walk it through the ruins I've become.
Let every scar become a reminder of the lives that I destroyed.
I'm searching for redemption,
Where I killed all light before.
And if the truth arrives too late,
Let it cut deeper than a blade.
I earned every storm above me,
But I'm not done learning how to breathe.
Learning how to breathe.
Maybe there's no absolution; maybe there's no way back home.
But for the first time in all these years of silence,
I chose the light instead of the dark.
Instead of the dark.
