šµ Backroads to Redemption (Final Lyrics)
(Verse 1)
I was raised on dust and diesel,
But I chased the neon flame.
Thought Iād find my freedom
In a bottle or a game.
Three schools down, kicked out again,
Weed in my veins, no real friends.
Running from the silence,
But the silence always wins.
(Verse 2)
Sold my tools, pawned my pride,
Told my folks another lie.
Quit my job with no plan B,
Just a ghost in my own story.
Stayed out late, avoided fights,
Couldnāt face the morning light.
Chasing highs, falling low,
Losing pieces of my soul.
(Chorus)
Now Iām walking these backroads to redemption,
With a heart full of scars and good intentions.
Iāve been broken, Iāve been blind,
But Iām learning to be kind.
To myself, to the ones I left behind,
On these backroads to redemption, Iām trying to find
That long ride home, one mile at a time.
(Verse 3)
There was love that turned to p****n,
Words that cut like steel.
I gave my all, but lost myself
In a love that couldnāt heal.
Tried to fix what couldnāt bend,
Went back again and again.
But every time I tried to stay,
I lost a little more each day.
(Bridge)
Iāve seen jail cells, Iāve seen fights,
Demons dancing in the night.
Lost my name, lost my way,
But Iām still standing here today.
Got a tag on my keys that says āNA,ā
And I wear it proud every day.
Aināt ashamed of where Iāve been,
Thatās where my healing begins.
(Chorus)
Yeah, Iām walking these backroads to redemption,
With a heart full of scars and good intentions.
Iāve been reckless, Iāve been wrong,
But Iām learning to be strong.
One prayer, one step, one honest song,
On these backroads to redemption, where I belong.
Trying to make it home, where I can stand tall.
(Outro)
So hereās to the ones still fighting the tide,
To the quiet tears and the sleepless nights.
I aināt perfect, but Iām free,
And Iām finally learning how to be me.
On these backroads to redemption,
Thatās where youāll find me.
