🎵 Hook (emotionally detached, autotune croon)
I shaped myself off hate I seen (yeah)
Now I mirror what made me bleed (real)
Told myself I’d break the chain (chain)
Now I got victims in my name (damn)
It’s cold in here, and I made it that
Heart iced out from the tit-for-tat
Thought I was healing — I just froze
Now I mold pain in the mirror I hold
---
[Verse 1 – Spiral of becoming, raw introspection]
Used to say I’d never lie, then I lied good
Used to say I’d love soft, now I love like hood
Told myself I’d never raise my voice
Now I bark orders like I ain’t got choice
I seen my father cheat, now I play like him
Told my girl she safe — but I slay like him
I said I’d break the cycle, not be it
Now I ghost folks like I ain’t got feelings
Pain made me cold, pride made me mean
Now I hurt who care — just to feel seen

🔊 Ad-Libs – Verse 1:
“Damn.” / “Truth hurts.” / “Look at me now.” / “That’s me.”

🎵 Hook (repeat with layered vocals, echo FX)
I shaped myself off hate I seen
Now I mirror what made me bleed
Told myself I’d break the chain
Now I got victims in my name
It’s cold in here, and I made it that
Heart iced out from the tit-for-tat
Thought I was healing — I just froze
Now I mold pain in the mirror I hold
---
[Verse 2 – Regret & self-honesty, poetic and brutal]
I ain’t evil, just broken real neat
Learned revenge before I learned to speak
I said I’d protect — now I push away
Bleed on people who ain’t make me this way
Every “never” became my mode
Now my habits like wounds in code
I ain’t changed — I just reshaped rage
Into actions I swore I’d never engage
I’m not proud, I’m just aware
The monster I feared been living in there
---
🔊 Ad-Libs – Verse 2:
“Inside me.” / “Can’t lie.” / “It’s in the mirror.” / “All me.”

🎧 Outro – beat slows, reverb trails off
(Spoken softly)
Funny how I hated him…
But now I walk like him, talk like him, break like him.
