Trust Issues

"Mind on the edge, I'm about to blow / Fighting these doubts everywhere I go / If I fall down, I'll rise again / 'Cause I was built to take this pain" "Trust Issues" captures internal turmoil, paranoia, and the anxiety of navigating shady relationships when trust completely collapses. Built around heavy sludge rock dynamics, the track contrasts high-tension self-doubt with a raw, defiant drive to push through the noise and survive the pain.
