JoMNi - Wounded Hero

(I'm the hero)
(The wounded hero)
(All on my own)
(With no place to go)
Feelin' like I'm trapped in a war zone
Emotions neutral, loss of energy
Thinkin' 'bout where I could've went wrong
In my life to be inured this burdening
Sinking more the further I move forward
Quicksand has found its way beneath my feet
Got to struggle in order to move onward
Wondering if it's worth another defeat
Heart beating
Blood pumping
Pulse thumping
Heart rate jumping but can't see nor hear nothin'
Hot surface warning, don't touch or you'll get burned just like I did
Now I'm recording while mumbling to the world, "I'm sorry"
Guilt eating up my bones
Don't got no place to go
Ran away from my home, now I'm hoping I'll make it home
Stuck in this nightmare, I swear I'm in this battle alone
At least I know the fight's fair
It's me versus my clone
(I'm struggling to speak, can't stop hyperventilating)
Down a long long road
Tryna keep it racing
Don't know which way to go
But not afraid to take it
Down this long long road
With no path and no pavement
I'm struggling to speak
Can't stop hyperventilating
Lost feeling in my body
Seems like no one cares about me
And when I try to do good
A black cloud storms on top of me
Don't want to go overlooked
I just want to be acknowledged
Open my eyes, sit up and realize I'm alive
Vibes flowing, not knowing where my life's going, waiting on the time
But time ain't waiting on me
Clock tickin' with each second going by
And I can't say that I've been givin' it my all if I ain't dyin'
They say the realest lasts forever and forever will be treasured and remembered after they die
Givin' a dyin' effort so I'll be treasured while I'm alive
Hoping things'll get better but no ones perfect, neither am I
Writing a wishful letter, signing it and sending it to God
Saying, "Please don't let me go out without saving the world for ones who mean the world to me and give me the strength to keep moving on"
Emotions swirl for me, got all these feelings blending together
Cuts open, no bleeding, 'cause all the fuel dried up inside my heart
Don't know how I'm running, it must be from my nerves sparking because they're stuck in shock
Entering different dimensions
Regretting all that I didn't
Only bad ever gets mentioned when viewed as the supervillain
Transforming into the lifted
Using all that I've been gifted
Why cannot I seem to prosper?
Can't take this shit anymore
Been giving all I could give when investing into my vision
Vessel sinking in the deep end of the sea where I've been lured
Had set out in hopes of fishin' for completion to my mission
Didn't realize I was also a reward being fished for
Got captured and then imprisoned
Broke chains that kept me constricted
Took an oath that I'd relive with caution of the traps in store
Listening to intuitions
To make critical decisions
Now all of my incisions spilling out fuel onto the floor
More industrious than ever
Since I've been returned my letter
Stamped by the sender and whoever watching over the boy
Wrote back stating I'd make it
Rising above the hatred
Might walk out wounded, but with people saying that
I'm the hero
The wounded hero
I'm the hero
The wounded hero
All on my own
So far away from my home
Got no place to go
Following this long long road
Ohh
