[Verse 1]
You painted me crazy
You tagged me a ghost
Every shadow
Every angle
You swear you’re the host
But I see your pattern
The scripts on repeat
You spy through the keyholes
I walk through the heat
[Pre-Chorus]
You twist the wires in my name
Try to bury me in shame
But every scar you carved in me
Became a blade you cannot see
[Chorus]
I’m still here
You can’t beat me
I was chosen to bring you down
You build thrones out of fear and grief
I’ll tear your kingdom from the ground
You watch me
Curse me
Circle ‘round
But your dark crown’s turning brown
I’m still here
You can’t beat me
I was chosen to bring you down
[Verse 2]
You gather in basements
You whisper your oaths
Trade souls like they’re secrets
Dress filth up in robes
You circle my footsteps
You circle my house
But truth is a hammer
And I am its mouth
[Pre-Chorus]
You flood the air with poison words
Try to drown me in your dirt
But every lie you spit at me
Feeds the fire that sets me free
[Chorus]
I’m still here
You can’t beat me
I was chosen to bring you down
You build thrones out of fear and grief
I’ll tear your kingdom from the ground
You watch me
Curse me
Circle ‘round
But your dark crown’s turning brown
I’m still here
You can’t beat me
I was chosen to bring you down
[Bridge]
I felt your eyes on my back
Felt your grip on my throat
You thought my silence was death
I was sharpening hope (hey!)
You think the mark that you gave me
Is a chain
Is a brand
Is a scar
It’s a flare on a mountain
I’m the wound turned to star
[Chorus]
I’m still here
You can’t beat me
I was chosen to bring you down
You build thrones out of fear and grief
I’ll tear your kingdom from the ground
You watch me
Curse me
Circle ‘round
But your dark crown’s turning brown
I’m still here
You can’t beat me
I was chosen to bring you down
[Outro]
Keep your cameras on me
Keep your whispering loud
I’ll walk through your circle
And walk out uncowed
I’m still here
You can’t beat me
I was chosen to bring you down
