Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You wrote a rumor on my back in pen Thought that little story was the shape I'm in Boxed me, locked me Cheap little summary You don't know the nights that rewrote my skin You don't know the corners that I had to fight in You only met the version you could manage Never saw the hunger under all that damage You love the label more than you love the person Kept that frame tight while the pressure kept worsenin' Smile in my face Talk in a code But I'm not your forecast, I'm my own weather pattern [Chorus] You drew a picture Tried to make me live inside it I'm past your image now You can't even recognize it You called me broken I turned every crack to lightning You wrote my story small Watch me make the ending frightening I'm not your rumor I'm louder than what you told You had me buried I grew roots around your stones You drew a picture I burned it, see the smoke You named me failure Now I'm the one that spoke [Verse 2] You said "too quiet," I became a storm You said "too strange," I made that the norm You said "no way" I said "say less" Turned all that doubt into blood in my form You never saw me reading when the room got dark Practicing alone just to sharpen my art You just saw grades, clothes, posts, gossip Never saw the grind or the weight on my heart I was busy buildin' while you were busy judgin' Stacking every second you were casually grudgin' You kept receipts, I kept receipts too Every word you ever used, I feed that to the fuel [Chorus] You drew a picture Tried to make me live inside it I'm past your image now You can't even recognize it You called me broken I turned every crack to lightning You wrote my story small Watch me make the ending frightening I'm not your rumor I'm louder than what you told You had me buried I grew roots around your stones You drew a picture I burned it, see the smoke You named me failure Now I'm the one that spoke [Bridge] You said "that's all you'll ever be" (ever be) Repeat that line, I'll count to three (count with me) One for every time I bled in silence Two for every scar they called defiance Three for when I walk right past your shade Head so high that the sky feel afraid (hey!) [Chorus] You drew a picture Tried to make me live inside it I'm past your image now You can't even recognize it You called me broken I turned every crack to lightning You wrote my story small Watch me make the ending frightening I'm not your rumor I'm louder than what you told You had me buried I grew roots around your stones You drew a picture I burned it, see the smoke You named me failure Now I'm the one that spoke
Tags
rap, Moody boom-bap with modern punch, male vocals. Hollow piano loop and dusty hats in the verses, giving space for tight, syllable-dense flow. Chorus widens with layered, shouted doubles and a deep, steady kick. Bridge strips to vocal and bass hits then slams back into the last hook for a triumphant finish.
