Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hands in my pockets
Same dirt road, same cold stares
Little kids pulled back by they parents
Like I’m made of knives and nightmares
Teacher say “play nice”
But his eyes say “stay away”
Why my name on every whisper?
Why they flinch when I just play?
I see candles by the memorial
My birthday, but they mournin' still
They look at me like it was my fault
Like I swung that blade, signed that deal
Every door shut when I walk past
Every laugh die, go real flat
I ain’t done nothin’ to deserve that
But they look at me like a flashback
[Pre-Chorus]
Heart beatin’ like a warning
I can taste all of their fear
If I’m guilty just for breathing
Tell me why am I still here?
[Chorus]
They made a monster in their stories
Painted fangs on my face in the dark
Every side-eye fed the fury
Every rumor lit a spark
If I become the monster they wanted
Would it finally make 'em see?
If I burn down all their glory
Would they finally look at me?
(look at me, look at me)
[Verse 2]
Voice in my head like, “listen”
“Why you beg for crumbs of love?”
“They already threw you in prison
Built from stone and empty hugs”
“Break out, boy, be the villain
Give 'em all the fear they paid for
Grin wide, walk through the village
Let 'em drown in what they prayed for”
I see myself in the window
Half me, half red in the eyes
Half tears, half wildfire ripple
Half truth, half beautiful lie
I punch walls till my knuckles split
Blood drip on the old leaf sign
If I’m cursed just for existin’
Why not cross that final line?
[Pre-Chorus]
Crowd cheerin’ in my nightmare
While the houses fall in flames
Hear ’em chanting out my nickname
Like they finally learned my name
[Chorus]
They made a monster in their stories
Painted fangs on my face in the dark
Every side-eye fed the fury
Every rumor lit a spark
If I become the monster they wanted
Would it finally make 'em see?
If I burn down all their glory
Would they finally look at me?
(hey, hey, look at me)
[Bridge]
But if I turn, is that still me?
If I destroy, who sets me free?
If I’m just what they decided
Do I ever get to choose what I’ll be?
I’m talkin’ back to that shadow
“Shut up, this heart still mine”
If they curse me till tomorrow
I’ma still stand in that line
Ramen bowl, empty pockets
Dreams louder than their hate
If I gotta fight the whole world
I’ma fight to change my fate (yeah)
[Chorus]
They made a monster in their stories
Painted fangs on my face in the dark
Every side-eye fed the fury
Every rumor lit a spark
But I won’t be the monster they wanted
I’ll be more than what they see
If I rewrite all their stories
Will they finally look at me?
(yeah, look at me, look at me)
