[I WON’T CRY ]
[Soft piano + ambient pad + breathy reverb]
[Minimal beat enters – soft kick + subtle 808]
My day won’t fall apart again
You won’t make me feel that pain
I’m stronger than I was before
Every scar’s worth something more
[Light hi-hats added]
My armor broke into pieces
But my heart still beats the same
You tried to erase my name
But I’m still here, I remain
[Pads widen + snare build]
Tried to make me cold, anti-emotional
But what I feel is real, undeniable
Say what you want, throw your doubts
I won’t keep it in now
[FULL BEAT DROP – heavy 808 + strong kick + synths]
[Backing vocals: “no, no”]
I won’t cry
Not this time — no, no
I won’t let nobody bring me down
Not this time
[Extra percussion layer + vocal layers]
I won’t cry
Not this time — no, no
I won’t let nobody bring me down
Not this time
[POST-CHORUS – chant + minimal beat groove]
Fake, fake — you call me fake
False, false — what you say
Fake, fake — I don’t break
False, false — I’m wide awake
[Beat switch – heavier 808 + fast trap hi-hats]
Yeah, yeah
You tried to break me, I don’t fold, I evolve
Every time I hit the ground, I stand tall
Talkin’ like you know me, you don’t know at all
I’m the fire in the dark, I won’t fall
[Hi-hat triplets intensify]
Say I’m fake? Say I’m false? — say it twice
But you never saw the truth in my eyes
All your words, all your lies — I outgrew
Turned pain into power, now I’m bulletproof
[Beat pause]
Front line, I don’t run, I attack
Step back? Never that — I snap back
Built strong, every scar on my skin
Call me fake, call me false — I still win
[Pads + choir + snare roll]
You tried to break me from inside
But I turned pain into my fight
You can try to drag me down
But I rise every time
[Riser + drop]
I won’t cry
Not this time — no, no
I won’t let nobody bring me down
Not this time
[Ad-libs layered: NO! / yeah, yeah]
I won’t cry
Not this time — no, no
I won’t let nobody bring me down
Not this time
[POST-CHORUS – stronger, layered vocals]
Fake! Fake! — you call me fake!
False! False! — what you say!
Fake! Fake! — I don’t break!
False! False! — wide awake!
[Instrumental drops – piano + deep reverb]
I almost believed everything they said…
Almost lost myself instead…
[Pause + breath + low rumble]
But no…
Not this time
[FINAL DROP – full instrumental + crashes + vocal stacks]
I won’t cry
Not this time — no, no
I won’t let nobody bring me down
Not this time
[Beat intensifies + strong ad-libs]
I won’t cry
Not this time — no, no
I won’t let nobody bring me down
Not this time
[POST-CHORUS – final, chant with attitude]
Fake, fake — you call me fake
False, false — what you say
Fake, fake — I don’t break
False, false — I’m wide awake
[Fade out – piano + long reverb tail]
I won’t cry…
not this time…
