Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] All you do is apologize But you never even ask why Same speech, same sad eyes Then you turn around and twist my mind You never ask me for forgiveness You just pray that I forget this Patch it over with a cheap smile Then you’re screaming in a short while You say it’s “just how you were raised” Like that’s supposed to make it OK I was a kid in that crossfire Learning rage from a liar [Chorus] You build a delusion of lies Paint halos over your crimes You’re my parents, you should love me Not break me every time that you’re lonely You take your anger out on us Then tell me that it’s “tough love” That ain’t love, that’s just disguise That’s just a delusion of lies [Verse 2] You slam doors, I count to ten You say ”grown-ups fight now and then” But grown-ups don’t throw their kids Like words they regret and forget they said You call it “normal,” I call it fear I still flinch when you walk near You say “sorry” like it costs air Then load the blame on my small shoulders there I had birthdays you slept through Then blamed bills for what you didn’t do You swear you’d die for me in a breath But you’re killing parts of me with every threat [Chorus] You build a delusion of lies Paint halos over your crimes You’re my parents, you should love me Not break me every time that you’re lonely You take your anger out on us Then tell me that it’s “tough love” That ain’t love, that’s just disguise That’s just a delusion of lies [Bridge] I’m not your mirror, I’m not your bruise I’m not the weight you make me choose I’m done carrying what ain’t mine I’m cutting through your tangled lines (yeah) [Chorus] You build a delusion of lies Paint halos over your crimes You’re my parents, you should love me Not break me every time that you’re lonely You take your anger out on us Then tell me that it’s “tough love” I see through your practiced lines I’m done with your delusion of lies

rap, Dark, intimate rap over sparse piano and deep sub bass; verses in a close, confessional pocket, hooks open up with layered, slightly distorted doubles and distant child-choir hums; drums swing with sharp snares and rattling hats, bridge strips back to just vocal and low drone before final chorus crashes in
