*Verse 1*
Midnight strikes, I'd hide under my bed
Fearful of ghosts, the darkness in my head
I'd tremble with fear, at every little sound
Thinking monsters lurked, all around
*Refrain 1*
But the darkness passed, and the dawn would rise
And my fears would fade, before my opened eyes
*Chorus*
But now I know, the real fright
Isn't ghosts, but the darkness of night
Cruel realizations, and the chaos that reigns
The scariest things, are the ones that remain
Adulthood's heavy chains, and the weight of my name
The midnight hour, brings a different kind of pain
*Verse 2*
I grew up fast, and the world's harsh light
Exposed the truths, that I couldn't ignite
Bills to pay, and a life to design
The responsibilities, that come with the grind
*Refrain 2*
And the clock strikes twelve, with a haunting tone
Reminding me, of the life I've sown
*Chorus*
But now I know, the real fright
Isn't ghosts, but the darkness of night
Cruel realizations, and the chaos that reigns
The scariest things, are the ones that remain
Adulthood's heavy chains, and the weight of my name
The midnight hour, brings a different kind of pain
*Bridge (Rap Verse)*
Listen up y'all, let me share my tale
From childhood fears, to adulting's gale
Thought I was safe, from the ghosts in my head
But reality's monsters, are the ones that I've fed
Student loans, and a 9-to-5 grind
Relationships that strain, and a mind that's left behind
Politicians lying, and a world that's unkind
The system's designed, to keep me in line
I'm searching for answers, in the dark of the night
Trying to find solace, in the city's cold light
But the more I search, the more I realize
The scariest things, are the ones that I've compromised
My dreams, my hopes, my youth, my prime
All sacrificed, for the sake of the grind
But I won't give up, I won't give in
I'll rise above, and start again
*Chorus*
But now I know, the real fright
Isn't ghosts, but the darkness of night
Cruel realizations, and the chaos that reigns
The scariest things, are the ones that remain
Adulthood's heavy chains, and the weight of my name
The midnight hour, brings a different kind of pain
Midnight strikes, I'd hide under my bed
Fearful of ghosts, the darkness in my head
I'd tremble with fear, at every little sound
Thinking monsters lurked, all around
*Refrain 1*
But the darkness passed, and the dawn would rise
And my fears would fade, before my opened eyes
*Chorus*
But now I know, the real fright
Isn't ghosts, but the darkness of night
Cruel realizations, and the chaos that reigns
The scariest things, are the ones that remain
Adulthood's heavy chains, and the weight of my name
The midnight hour, brings a different kind of pain
*Verse 2*
I grew up fast, and the world's harsh light
Exposed the truths, that I couldn't ignite
Bills to pay, and a life to design
The responsibilities, that come with the grind

Reminding me, of the life I've sown
*Chorus*
But now I know, the real fright
Isn't ghosts, but the darkness of night
Cruel realizations, and the chaos that reigns
The scariest things, are the ones that remain
Adulthood's heavy chains, and the weight of my name
The midnight hour, brings a different kind of pain
