Lyrical Analysis of...
Emotions
- Yeah, I grew up in the silence, no voice in my ear,
- Dad was just a shadow that was never really near.
- Every call was missed, every seat was bare,
- At games, at my life —he was never there.
- People thought I had it easy, like I lived a perfect script,
- But they never saw my mind when the thoughts would flip.
- Anger turned to chaos, chaos turned to rage,
- I was writing my emotions on an empty page.
- Nobody understood, man, I felt so strange,
- Thoughts in my head that I couldn’t rearrange.
- Yeah, I’d laugh with the crowd but be breaking inside,
- Wrestling my demons with nowhere to hide.
- Football was my refuge, that field was my cure,
- Only place I felt steady, only time I felt sure.
- Every hit was therapy, every play was a fight,
- Blocking out the voices that kept me up at night.
- Nobody understood the storm in my brain,
- The mask on my face hid the weight and the pain.
- Dad wasn’t there, just a ghost in the stands,
- So I fought for my peace with a ball in my hands.
- Mom’s face still flickers when I look to the sky,
- Her voice is in my chest when I question why.
- But it’s Dad that’s the echo in the empty seats,
- And the silence gets louder every time we meet.
- I went crazy at times, yeah, my thoughts ran wild,
- Still felt like a burden when I was just a child.
- People saw the athlete, thought the boy was strong,
- But they never heard the verses I’d been writing all along.
- It’s like every single down was a war in disguise,
- Every yard was a battle just to quiet my mind.
- If you didn’t see the pain, then you never looked deep,
- I was playing through my trauma while they thought it was just a game to keep.
- Nobody understood the storm in my brain,
- The mask on my face hid the weight and the pain.
- Dad wasn’t there, just a ghost in the stands,
- So I fought for my peace with a ball in my hands.
- Now I look at the field like the place that saved me,
- Every broken thought, yeah, the game reframed me.
- Still got scars in my head, but I’m stronger each day,
- Turned the silence and the anger into words I can say.
- Dad might never know the man I became,
- He missed all the moments, but I rose from the flame.
- And Mom, I know you see me from the place you rest,
- Your boy fought the battle and gave it his best.
- Life was chaos, pain, and missing calls,
- But I learned to break free when my back hit the walls.
- Nobody understood, but that’s okay,
- I found my own peace in the game I play.
