Invisible Fight

Mornings hit heavy, legs feel like stone
I drag 'em through fire, but I do it alone
No crowd, no cheers, just a battle with pain
Every quiet moment still screams my name
I laugh with the world, but my hands still shake
I fake it so well they don't see what it takes
The nights feel longer than the days I survive
But I grind through the dark just to feel alive

MS don't sleep, it creeps when it can
Cuts through my body, but I stick to the plan
Ain't asking for help, don't need your pity
Just respect for the war you'll never see in me
Pressure in my chest, but I breathe it out slow
Mind locked in, even when my body says no
Pain don't talk, but it screams in my head
Still I rise every time when they think that I'm dead

You don't see the war that I fight each night
But I wake up swinging in this invisible fight
Scars you can't see, but they cut me deep
Still I stand my ground, won't accept defeat

You don't see the war that I fight each night
But I wake up swinging in this invisible fight
Scars you can't see, but they cut me deep
Still I stand my ground, won't accept defeat

Some days I smile, but I'm breaking inside
Anxiety loud, got nowhere to hide
Depression creeps in, tells me I'm through
But I fight that voice like I always do
People say "you look fine," and that's the worst part
They don't see these nights tearing me apart
I piss my pants, can't control that shame
Still I stand tall, won't let it kill my name

Frustration burns, I want to scream and shout
But I choke it all down, just grind it out
This war's in my head, but I won't lose pace
Every scar in my mind is a badge I face
Pressure in my chest, but I breathe it out slow
Mind locked in, even when my body says no
Pain don't talk, but it screams in my head
Still I rise every time when they think I'm dead

You don't see the war that I fight each night
But I wake up swinging in this invisible fight
Scars you can't see, but they cut me deep
Still I stand my ground, won't accept defeat

You don't see the war that I fight each night
But I wake up swinging in this invisible fight
Scars you can't see, but they cut me deep
Still I stand my ground, won't accept defeat
