[Verse 1]
You wrote the rules
In skin and shame
Taught me to flinch
At the sound of my name
Every locked door
Every swallowed shout
Built you a kingdom
Inside my mouth
[Pre-Chorus]
But I bled your script
Line by line
Ripped your voice
Out of my mind (yeah)
[Chorus]
I will not be what you did to me
I’m more than the bruise you tried to leave
You broke my bones
But you won’t break my name
I’m tearing your shadow off my skin
If I have to burn
I’ll rise again
You broke my bones
But you won’t break my name
[Verse 2]
I see your face
In the bathroom glass
Hands start to shake
Like I’m back in the past
But I’m not your fear
I am not your fault
Carved my own door
In the back of your vault
[Pre-Chorus]
You trained my heart
To crawl and hide
Now hear it roar
From the other side (hey!)
[Chorus]
I will not be what you did to me
I’m more than the bruise you tried to leave
You broke my bones
But you won’t break my name
I’m tearing your shadow off my skin
If I have to burn
I’ll rise again
You broke my bones
But you won’t break my name
[Bridge]
Every scar
Every night
Was a match to the fuse
You thought I was ruined
I call it proof
I’m the crack in your story
You can’t rewrite
Your hands built a fighter
You built my fight (yeah)
[Chorus]
I will not be what you did to me
I’m more than the bruise you tried to leave
You broke my bones
But you won’t break my name
I’m tearing your shadow off my skin
If I have to burn
I’ll rise again
You broke my bones
But you won’t break my name (my name)
You broke my bones
But you won’t break my name
