[Verse]
Books in my bag, thick lenses on my frame
Quiet kid in the back, they snicker my name
Chessboard dreams, they called me a pawn
But the king’s in my blood, though the crown feels wrong
[Prechorus]
His voice a hammer, breaking my spine
"Boy, you're my legacy, you'll toe the line"
But I’m stitching my wounds, no more Frankenstein
[Chorus]
Break the chain, cut the rope, I’m free
Living my life, no shadows over me
His world’s a cage, I threw the key
I exist, I resist, just let me be
[Verse 2]
Mom’s tears fell, puddles on cracked tiles
Siblings hushed, walking eggshell miles
Dinner plates clashed, his wrath in the air
A throne built on fear, but I’m not his heir
He yelled, "You’re weak, you’ll never survive!"
But I saw his kingdom rotting, barely alive
My silence is my anthem, my protest is clear
He’s a ghost to me now, I don’t shed a tear
[Chorus]
Break the chain, cut the rope, I’m free
Living my life, no shadows over me
His world’s a cage, I threw the key
I exist, I resist, just let me be
