Scars is confronting difficult conversations with family members and encourages breaking the cycle of trauma responses. Speaking on abuse, rape, and family disagreements, the scars will only heal when the truth is revealed.
lyrics
IS IT HARD, to believe
That these scars, can still bleed
We’re from stars, history
Going far, to succeed
Sign sealed deliver it
Blood of my blood, flesh or flesh huh
Situations occurred, weighs on my chest uh
Where do you go when all that you know is
Lies, deceit, disguise, defeat straight from the nest huh
...Wrapped around my wounds is Respect
I can’t promise it won’t happen but I try my best
Wu taught me to protect ya neck
But what they missed was the steps on how to lay Trauma to rest it’s a mess
Hook
IS IT HARD, to believe
That these scars, can still bleed
We’re from stars, history
Going hard, to achieve
Sign sealed deliver it
When there was rape in the family what you do?
Did you sweep it under the rug or did you try and search for clues?
what about abuse to your nephews,
Was it teaching a lesson or was it pent up anger you need to let loose?
I, gather these fears just to let you,
Know that these aren’t easy pills to swallow but the healing from it will come through
we are damaged beings searching for Refuge
This ain’t pointing the finger at you, I’m talking me too. The light will beam through
vrs 3
What if the hand that raised us didn’t have the proper maintenance
What if the things I was taught came from a plan of strangers
Hard to manoeuvre through a room of darkness when you’re an angel
Why is it unknown that the roots where I was grown have been pulled out and left me anxious
We question the life of adults when their story has ripped out pages
How can we rise above when its the very same system that keeps us in cages
I’ve seen the stages, shock, denial, guilt,
and these are the same stones that they expect us to start with to build?
Well we all know what happens when there isn’t a firm foundation
But we can’t allow the past to strain us away from our own dedication
Good vibration, No frustration, All our patience
straight communication
Love
