This song is basically me trying to let go of the things my adoptive father put me through. My adoptive father is a narcissist and alcoholic. I called it Bottles Over Me cause he literally chose alcohol over me, his own family
⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅

Verse One
In the shadow of your bottles, I grew up so fast
Daddy’s laughter turned to echoes, memories from the past
You promised love and sunshine, but all I got was rain
In the broken home in my memories, it’s driving me insane

Chorus
Why did you choose the bottle over me?
Your narcissistic ways, they’ve taken all I used to see
But I’ll rise above the darkness, find my own way to be free
I’ll break these chains you forged and be the best that I can be

Verse Two
Your reflection in the class, it’s a stranger I can’t know
As you drown in self-indulgence, I’m learning how to grow
I’ve patched my wounded heart with strength and empathy
For I won’t let your demons steal the best of me

Chorus
Why did you choose the bottle over me?
Your narcissistic ways, they’ve taken all I used to see
But I’ll rise above the darkness, find my own way to be free
I’ll break these chains you forged and be the best that I can be

Bridge
In your world of illusions, I’ll find my own truth
In your storms of confusion, I’ll build my own roof
I’ll shine like the sunrise, let my spirit be my guide
For my future’s waiting, and I won’t let it hide

Chorus
Why did you choose the bottle over me?
Your narcissistic ways, they’ve taken all I used to see
But I’ll rise above the darkness, find my own way to be free
I’ll break these chains you forged and be the best that I can be

Outro
Though you left me with scars that may never fade away
I’ll rise above the pain, find my own brighter day
No longer bound by your choices, I’ll finally be set free
Daddy, I’ll reclaim my life and become the best of me
