Game of Shadows

In the beginning, he wore a charming smile
Promises and laughter, made it seem worthwhile
But behind the mask, lies and deceit
You found yourself trapped, in his twisted conceit
He seemed loaded, flush with cash
Made it rain from his million dollar stash
Lovebombing and gifting all the horde
Then the truth was revealed and we found he was a fraud

He played his games, twisted every truth
Gaslighting your world, stealing your youth
With every word, he tore you down
Left you doubting, in a sea to drown

Breaking free from the shadows, cutting all the strings
No more flying monkeys, or the pain they bring
I'll rise above your twisted schemes
Finding strength in my own dreams
The truth will set me free, lies melt under the light

Watch this little bird spread its wings and take flight

He had his minions, his twisted crew
Spreading lies and rumors, all on cue
Blame-shifting, alter-egos and smear campaigns
Trying to drive us all insane

But his hold on you, it started to break
As you found strength in the turbulent wake
Triangulation, intimidation and those empty threats
You rose above, with no regrets

Breaking free from the shadows, cutting all the strings
No more flying monkeys, or the pain they bring
I'll rise above your twisted schemes
Finding strength in my own dreams
The truth will set me free, lies melt under the light

Watch this little bird spread its wings and take flight

Take flight

Breaking free from the shadows, cutting all the strings
No more flying monkeys, or the pain they bring
I'll rise above your twisted schemes
Finding strength in my own dreams
The truth will set me free, lies melt under the light
Watch this little bird spread its wings and take flight

Breaking free from the shadows, cutting all the strings
No more flying monkeys, or the pain they bring
I'll rise above your twisted schemes
Finding strength in my own dreams
The truth will set me free, lies melt under the light
Watch this little bird spread its wings and take flight
Take flight

Surround yourself with those who care
Seek the truth, let go of despair
Build your strength, one day at a time
Trust your heart, let your spirit climb
Set boundaries firm, and don't look back
Find your path, get back on track
Embrace your worth, let your heart feel
One day soon you'll begin to heal
