Kira Rae - Drift Lines Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Scribbled thoughts in margins, bleeding through the page
Daddy's jazz notes hidden, mama's dreams locked in a cage
Paper cuts and ink stains, marking where I've been
These fragments of my story, where do I begin?

[Pre-Chorus]
Lost between the lines I drew
Memories scattered, black and blue
Who am I supposed to be?
When these anchors won't set me free

[Chorus]
I'm drifting, drifting like loose pages in the wind
Stories untold, secrets that I can't rescind
My words are floating, dancing without a home
Through beautiful wounds that I've never shown

[Verse 2]
Caribbean lullabies echo in my head
Mixed with whispered promises that we left unsaid
Your voice fades like footnotes in my diary
These scattered thoughts are all that's left of me

[Bridge]
Sometimes I wonder if I'm really here
Or just a ghost between the lines, my dear
Inherited silence, generational pain
Washing over me like summer rain

[Chorus]
I'm drifting, drifting like loose pages in the wind
Stories untold, secrets that I can't rescind
My words are floating, dancing without a home
Through beautiful wounds that I've never shown

[Outro]
These margins hold my truth
Scattered pieces of my youth
Watch them float away from me
Like thoughts across an endless sea
