Not Your Puppet

(Verse 1)

They drew the lines, signed my fate,

In a room where I had no name.

Speaking for me with plastic smiles,

Like I’m just part of their game.

They said “It’s best,” they said “Just trust,”

But I’ve had enough of fake-ass love.

Cut the strings, burn the script —

I ain’t your silent, twitching glitch.

(Chorus)

I'm not your puppet, not your slave,

Not a pawn you move then blame.

Keep your lies, keep your throne —

I’ll raise hell on my own.

You make the rules, then break them fast —

But this time, I’m breaking back.

I won’t be quiet, won’t behave —

You don’t own what you can’t cage.

(Verse 2)

You think I don’t see behind the glass,

The whisper deals, the snakes in masks.

But I’m a fuse, lit and live,

Sick of just trying to survive.

No more nods, no more fear,

I’ll scream truth into your ears.

Your control’s a dying breed —

My mind’s not yours to lead.

(Bridge – spoken/screamed)

I was born with a voice —

You just never let me use it.

Now it’s a weapon.

And I’m done being muted.

(Final Chorus – more aggressive)

I'm not your puppet, not your slave,

Not a tool you use then trade.

Screw your plans, your safe clichés —

I’m the storm you can’t explain.

You make the rules, but I break fast —

No more silence, kiss my past.

I won’t be quiet, won’t obey —

You don’t own me anyway.
