Intro (male vocals only):
He gave and he gave, but his soul felt the cost,
Love turned to numbers, and all that was lost.
In the mirror he saw only pain and regret,
A prisoner of shadows he’ll never forget.

Verse 1 (male vocals only):
She only saw a wallet, thick and full of cash,
Love disappeared in bills and the aftermath.
Every day was cold, no words, no touch,
Instead of walking together—a wall built too much.

Somewhere he lost himself, kept giving too much,
Every step forward just never was enough.
In the mirror he saw a shadow, loneliness and pain,
Banker and client, their roles rearranged.

Life together became an empty stage,
He was the matter, she was the rage.
He loved at first, now only anger remains,
No warmth, no home, so he broke the chains.

He made the decision, though his heart was sore,
Left to save what was left at his core.
No longer a tool, his eyes open wide,
He broke out to freedom, with deep scars inside.

Chorus (male vocals only):
He broke the bars, built a world of his own,
Though the wounds still ache, he dreams of what’s grown.
He won’t return to where darkness waits,
He found himself—now he conquers fate.

[Instrumental break – heavy guitar, vinyl scratching]

Verse 2 (male vocals only):
He felt the air taste different and new,
Freedom had come, but sadness too.
The love he once knew was a mirror of lies,
And his feelings faded, hidden in disguise.

Every day, every step, every move he made,
Reminded him life’s better without the charade.
He didn’t want to fake that everything was fine,
He knew that freedom was finally mine.

Her words echoed like ghosts from the past,
She tried to bind him in her anger’s grasp.
But he was strong, no more afraid,
Life without her—debts finally paid.

Now with Lili he sees the world in new hues,
True love, not anger, colors every view.
Every moment with her is a blooming rose,
Once empty hands now hold what he chose.

Chorus (male vocals only):
He broke the bars, built a world of his own,
Though the wounds still ache, he dreams of what’s grown.
He won’t return to where darkness waits,
He found himself—now he conquers fate.

Verse 3 (male vocals only):
He doesn’t regret, though the scars still sting,
There were days full of tears, lost to everything.
But he knew that freedom comes at a price,
Better that than a life where you sacrifice.

Sometimes he looks back, feels the chill of the past,
It’s dark but he’s not hiding, the anger won’t last.
She had her own plan, he carried his pain,
But now he’s the one who’s changed the game.

Every moment with Lili is laughter and light,
Real love fills every breath, every night.
He’s not chasing illusions, not lost in the shade,
His life is now shining, a new path is made.

Demons of the past still sometimes call,
But with Lili he’s strong—they conquer them all.
Freedom has a taste he never knew before,
Now with head held high, he’s himself once more.

Chorus (male vocals only):
He broke the bars, built a world of his own,
Though the wounds still ache, he dreams of what’s grown.
He won’t return to where darkness waits,
He found himself—now he conquers fate.

Outro (male vocals only):
From the prison of shadows, he walks into light,
With scars as reminders, he stands up to fight.
No chains can hold him, no darkness remains,
He’s found his own freedom—reborn from the pain.
