The lyrics convey deep feelings of sorrow, struggle, and a longing for relief and change. The repetitive nature of the phrases emphasizes a sense of hopelessness and the burden of pain but also reflects resilience and a desire for strength.
This song can be played in various scenarios such as introspective moments, self-reflection, or during times of personal struggle. It could also be used in therapeutic settings to evoke emotions or during meditation when one is seeking solace.
The lyrics feature a repetitive structure typical in house music, creating a hypnotic effect that enhances the emotional weight of the verses. The imagery of darkness and struggle contrasts with the desire for light and relief, which could be reflected in the musical arrangement through melancholic melodies and slower tempos resonant with the themes of despair and longing.

[Verse 1] I wake up each day in this same dark place, Staring at shadows, can’t escape this space. They say it'll pass, that the sun will shine, But I’m trapped in a storm that I can't define. Every step feels heavy, every breath so slow, Trying to climb, but I’m sinking below. I didn’t ask for this weight on my soul, But here I am, falling deeper in this black hole. [Chorus] Why does it always have to be this way? Fighting shadows, pushing light away. I didn’t ask to be here, drowning alone, Searching for hope, but it's already gone. Why does it hurt just to survive the day? Why does it always have to be this way? [Verse 2 - Swahili Rap] Niko hapa, najaribu kuvumilia maumivu, Lakini giza linazidi, moyo unalilia kivuli. Kila siku ni kama vita, nafsi inajikokota, Hakuna mtu anayeona, ninaishi gizani nalia kimya. Wananiambia niwe na nguvu, nisimame, Lakini kwa moyo huu mchovu, sijui kama naweza endelea. Ninazunguka kwenye ndoto za huzuni na hasira, Sijui mwisho wake, sijui ni lini nitapata raha. [Verse 3] I look around, see everyone’s at ease, While I’m locked in chains only I can see. They’re building lives, they’re chasing dreams, But mine keep fading, or so it seems. Love feels distant, like a tale I’ve read, I reach out for comfort, but find darkness instead. They say there’s meaning, that it’s worth the fight, But I’m losing hope, slipping out of sight. [Chorus] Why does it always have to be this way? Fighting shadows, pushing light away. I didn’t ask to be here, drowning alone, Searching for hope, but it's already gone. Why does it hurt just to survive the day? Why does it always have to be this way? [Verse 4 - Swahili Rap] Kila siku napambana na ndoto zilizopotea, Nataka kutoka, lakini sijui njia. Kazi kila saa, hakuna furaha ndani, Moyo wangu umejaa uzito, na nateseka peke yangu. Wananiambia nisimame, nishike maisha, Lakini najiuliza, hii ni nini, na kwa nini mimi? Natamani upendo, natamani mwanga, Lakini siku zinaendelea, na mimi nimeshikwa na giza. [Bridge] Maybe someday I'll find my release, A quiet moment, a breath of peace. But till then, I’m caught in this fight, Lost in darkness, far from light. They say to keep going, one step at a time, But each step feels heavier, hard to climb. I want to break free, find some kind of way, But all I feel is this endless gray. [Chorus] Why does it always have to be this way? Fighting shadows, pushing light away. I didn’t ask to be here, drowning alone, Searching for hope, but it's already gone. Why does it hurt just to survive the day? Why does it always have to be this way? [Outro - Swahili Rap] Hii maisha ni mzigo, maumivu hayana mwisho, Najaribu kutabasamu, lakini moyo umechoka kabisa. Kila siku ni vita, sijui mwisho wangu, Lakini naendelea kupambana, na giza bado lipo. Nitaendelea kutafuta mwanga, hata kama uko mbali, Kwa sababu ndani ya mimi, bado kuna matumaini kidogo. Labda siku moja nitapata njia ya kutoka, Kwa sasa, napigana peke yangu, natembea gizani.
