Verse 1
Broken glass on the highway of my life,
Reflections of the man I used to be.
Behind the wheel of pain, I chased the night,
But the dawn brought only empty company.
Pre-Chorus
Now the silence screams louder than the crowd,
And the truth comes crashing down.
Chorus
On the road to clarity, I found my name,
Through the haze and the shadows, I faced the shame.
Left behind the ghosts, the bottle’s grip,
And learned to stand tall when the world would slip.
On the road to clarity, I found my soul,
Through the wreckage, I made myself whole.
Verse 2
Eighteen months, a sentence or a gift?
Time to see the scars I’d always missed.
Friends who left, their echoes fading fast,
But the ones who stayed are the ones who last.
Pre-Chorus
Now the silence feels like a sacred song,
And the road ahead is where I belong.
Chorus
On the road to clarity, I found my name,
Through the haze and the shadows, I faced the shame.
Left behind the ghosts, the bottle’s grip,
And learned to stand tall when the world would slip.
On the road to clarity, I found my soul,
Through the wreckage, I made myself whole.
Bridge
It’s not the driving that defines a man,
It’s the miles he walks on his own.
Through the storm and the quiet, I understand,
I’m stronger now than I’ve ever known.
Chorus
On the road to clarity, I found my name,
Through the haze and the shadows, I faced the shame.
Left behind the ghosts, the bottle’s grip,
And learned to stand tall when the world would slip.
On the road to clarity, I found my soul,
Through the wreckage, I made myself whole.
Outro
The wheel’s not the answer, the bottle’s not the cure,
The road to clarity taught me something pure.
Life is the driver; I’m just the guide,
On this road to clarity, I’ve found my pride.
