Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – whispered, distorted, low piano] I don’t explode. I corrode. ⸻ [Verse 1 – low, controlled rap] I don’t yell, I just clench my jaw, Smile through pressure like I’m built for war, Every insult sits under my skin, I collect every moment like a loaded sin. They think I’m calm, think I’m chill, Don’t see the storm buried under still, I don’t fight back, I memorize, Every slight stored behind these eyes. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – spoken/shouted, tense] I don’t slam doors, I lock them silently, I don’t break people, I erase them mentally, You think I forgot—nah, I archived the pain, And it plays on repeat in a loop in my brain. ⸻ [Chorus – screamed rap metal] THIS IS QUIET RAGE—SILENT BUT LOUD, A THUNDER IN MY CHEST THAT I NEVER LET OUT, TEETH GRINDING, BLOOD BOILING UNDERNEATH, I DON’T SCREAM—I JUST LET IT EAT! YEAH, THIS IS QUIET RAGE—COLD LIKE A KNIFE, I’M SMILING THROUGH FIRE WHILE IT BURNS MY LIFE, YOU THINK I’M FINE, BUT YOU DON’T SEE THE CAGE, I’M LOCKED INSIDE MY HEAD WITH THIS QUIET RAGE! ⸻ [Verse 2 – faster, darker rap] I swallow disrespect like it’s medicine, They think I’m weak ‘cause I never let it in, But every word turns to iron in my veins, Every laugh at me carves deeper in my brain. I don’t lash out, I shut down, Build a throne from every time I was pushed around, You think silence means I’m okay, Nah, it just means I learned how to bury the pain. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – shouted] I don’t throw punches, I throw away trust, I don’t blow up, I implode in disgust, I don’t forget, I just file away, And replay every scene when I’m alone in the dark. ⸻ [Chorus – heavier guitars, layered screams] THIS IS QUIET RAGE—SILENT BUT LOUD, A THUNDER IN MY CHEST THAT I NEVER LET OUT, TEETH GRINDING, BLOOD BOILING UNDERNEATH, I DON’T SCREAM—I JUST LET IT EAT! YEAH, THIS IS QUIET RAGE—COLD LIKE A KNIFE, I’M SMILING THROUGH FIRE WHILE IT BURNS MY LIFE, YOU THINK I’M FINE, BUT YOU DON’T SEE THE CAGE, I’M LOCKED INSIDE MY HEAD WITH THIS QUIET RAGE! ⸻ [Bridge – breakdown, whispered over distorted bass] They think monsters roar. They don’t know monsters learn to whisper. They think anger explodes. They don’t know anger can freeze solid and never melt. ⸻ [Final Chorus – chaotic but controlled] THIS IS QUIET RAGE—A STATIC IN MY BONES, A COLD WAR WAGING IN THE SPACES BETWEEN TONES, I DON’T NEED SCREAMS TO PROVE THAT I BLEED, I’M A WALKING EXPLOSION THAT REFUSED TO BREATHE! YEAH, THIS IS QUIET RAGE—A SMILE WITH TEETH, A CALM FACE HIDING EVERYTHING BENEATH, YOU’LL NEVER KNOW HOW CLOSE I AM TO THE EDGE, ‘CAUSE MY ANGER DOESN’T SCREAM— IT JUST LIVES IN MY HEAD.
