Deep Reflections
Joe Budden

Verse 1:
Yo, life got layers like an onion, peeling back the pain,
Each tear that falls, is a lesson I gained.
Navigating through the shadows, where the demons reside,
Trying to find the light, in the chaos I confide.

Got dreams in my pocket, but the weight's on my back,
Every step feels heavy, in this endless track.
But I push on, breaking chains, can’t be confined,
Understand my purpose, yeah, I’m redefining.

Chorus:
It’s a journey through the struggle, gotta rise up high,
With every small step, I’m touching the sky.
Life’s a canvas, I’m painting it deep,
Through the highs and the lows, these memories I keep.

Verse 2:
Reflecting on my past, all the twists and turns,
Fires that I walked through, all the bridges I burned.
Friends turned foes, but I carried the weight,
In the book of my life, only I write the fate.

Questions in the mirror, staring back at me,
Who am I becoming, is this who I’m meant to be?
Lost in translation, but I’m learning to speak,
Every truth I uncover, brings strength to the weak.

Chorus:
It’s a journey through the struggle, gotta rise up high,
With every small step, I’m touching the sky.
Life’s a canvas, I’m painting it deep,
Through the highs and the lows, these memories I keep.

Verse 3:
Moments turn to memories, treasures of the past,
I cherish every heartbeat, every moment that lasts.
But I know time’s a thief, it don’t wait for no one,
So I’m chasing my dreams, till the day I’m done.

Every scar that I carry, tells a story untold,
A warrior in this life, I refuse to fold.
With my pen as my sword, I’ll fight till the end,
In this battle called life, I’ll always transcend.

Outro:
‘Cause every soul’s a story, every heart's got a beat,
Through the struggles and the triumphs, we just stay on our feet.
Deep reflections of life, we keep moving along,
In the rhythm of existence, together we strong.
