[Intro]
Yeah
Same pain, different day
[Verse 1]
Same pain, different day, heart heavy in my chest
Walk in and they read my skin before they hear the rest
Ink across my arms, now they label me a threat
Judge a book by the cover, never turn a page yet
I’ve been carrying the weight that I don’t mention in the room
Learned to keep a steady face when everything feels doomed
If I step between the danger, it ain’t pride, it’s what I do
I protect the ones beside me, even when I’m breaking too
[Pre-Chorus]
You see the marks, you miss the man
You see the guard, not where I stand
I got a heart beneath this armor
I still reach out when life gets harder
[Chorus]
Watch me move, I’m not the monster that you made
I’ve got scars, but every scar is proof I stayed
Heart heavy, still I carry what I can
Look beyond the ink and see the man
Watch me move, watch me move
I protect the people that I love
Watch me move, watch me move
I’m more than what you think I’m made of
[Verse 2]
They whisper when I pass, like my silence means I’m cold
Never saw the nights I gave my last to keep them whole
Never saw me bite my tongue so someone else could breathe
Never saw the trust I built with every promise I would keep
I’m not asking for a pardon, I’m just asking you to look
There’s a thousand hidden chapters in the pages that you shook
If my fists are ever raised, it’s to pull somebody through
I don’t need to prove I’m ruthless, I’ve got better things to do
[Bridge]
I’m just a man with a heart
Trying to do my part
If the world wants a villain
I won’t play that part
[Chorus]
Watch me move, I’m not the monster that you made
I’ve got scars, but every scar is proof I stayed
Heart heavy, still I carry what I can
Look beyond the ink and see the man
Watch me move, watch me move
I protect the people that I love
Watch me move, watch me move
I’m more than what you think I’m made of
[Outro]
Same pain, different day
Still standing anyway
Read the whole story
Before you turn away
