R Music IA - The Weight Within Lyrics

I walk with the weight of my days
Each step screams what silence never says

My shadow is bigger than my dreams
A reflection that doesn't fit in my small schemes
Stairs feel like mountains too steep to climb
And stares are arrows that hit every time
The mirror doesn't lie but its truth cuts deep
Echoing a battle that steals my sleep

Carrying chains no one can see
A weary body but a standing soul in me
I'm more than my size more than this disguise
My worth isn't tied to what meets the eyes

Food is a refuge and also a cell
A fleeting truce in a battlefield's hell
I hide in clothes that mask my stride
But the heart has no fabric where it can hide
Words wound deeper than the sharpest knife
And every mockery dims the light of my life

But change doesn't come from hating my form
It's learning to see beyond the norm
I'm not my flaws or the falls I've faced
I'm a fighter learning to find my grace

Carrying chains I've begun to break
A weary body rising for its own sake
I'm more than my size more than this disguise
Today I claim self love as my true prize
