Voices: Song Lyrics of Struggle, Resilience, and Finding Your Strength
Voices by Thorne Empire

When I was young, heard ghosts in my mind,
Whispers in the dark saying, quit, don’t climb.
No escape, no peace, just a war in my head,
Told me I was nothing, just a name left for dead.
Fade away, boy, you ain't built to stay,
Just a picture in a frame, just a shadow in the gray.
But I kept on pushing, fighting through the rain,
Broke the chains, now I'm carving my name.
Hope was a flicker, but I gripped it tight,
While the demons kept pulling me into the night.
I ain't giving in, I just catch my breath,
Turned whispers to embers; I rose from the depths.
Now the voices still talk, but they whisper my name,
I walk through the fire, never burn in the flame.
Lost in the dark, now I blaze my own way,
Ain't no voice gonna tell me that I’m fading away.
Fade away, boy, you ain't built to stay,
Just a picture in a frame, just a shadow in the gray.
But I kept on pushing, fighting through the rain,
Broke the chains, now I'm carving my name.
Now the voices still talk, but they whisper my name,
I walk through the fire, never burn in the flame.
Lost in the dark, now I blaze my own way,
Ain't no voice gonna tell me that I’m fading away.
