[Verse 1] My heart numb Feelings on lockdown Scrollin through the memories I gotta put the phone down You say "come here" Only when you stressed out Turn me to a therapist You never heard me tap out Walkin on eggshells Crackin under both feet Every "sorry" that you said Came on repeat I gave you all my colors You painted me weak Now I’m gray in the mirror Haven’t slept all week [Chorus] I’m all cried out Tears ran dry like the well in a drought Used to break down Now I barely make a sound I can’t keep Being your human punching bag I just want peace I just want peace, is that so bad? I’m all cried out Heart gone quiet, ain’t you proud? You swing words round But I won’t stick around I can’t keep Being your human punching bag I just want peace I just want peace, is that so bad? (yeah) [Verse 2] You call it "tough love" I call it straight damage You break then blame me For what you can’t manage Told me I was "too much" Then wanted me to stay less Shrank myself daily Just to keep you from a rage text I held you through storms You left me in silence You only touched gentle After your violence I used to beg "change" Now I beg "leave" Rather breathe alone Than die when you breathe [Chorus] I’m all cried out Tears ran dry like the well in a drought Used to break down Now I barely make a sound I can’t keep Being your human punching bag I just want peace I just want peace, is that so bad? I’m all cried out Heart gone quiet, ain’t you proud? You swing words round But I won’t stick around I can’t keep Being your human punching bag I just want peace I just want peace, is that so bad? [Bridge] You hit my spirit More than you hit my phone Turned our house to a cage Now I’m breakin that home Packin my pain In this little suitcase I’d rather start from zero Than restart this same place (hey) [Chorus] I’m all cried out Tears ran dry like the well in a drought Used to break down Now I barely make a sound I can’t keep Being your human punching bag I just want peace I just want peace, is that so bad? I’m all cried out Heart gone quiet, ain’t you proud? You swing words round But I won’t stick around I can’t keep Being your human punching bag I just want peace Yeah, I choose peace, and I won’t backtrack

rap, Sparse, moody hip hop beat with female vocals; low piano stabs, deep sub bass, and crisp, swung drums. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d with subtle pitchy background hums; hook widens with layered doubles and airy harmonies. Gradual lift from numb resignation to quiet defiance, ending on a strong, dry a cappella bar before the beat drops back in., hip hop
