[Intro]
Yeah…
Funny how the story changes depending who tells it.
⸻
[Chorus] (Pop – emotional, catchy)
I’m the villain in your story, I can see it now
You paint me black and white, but you don’t know how
I was fighting for the truth, you were saving face
Now I’m the bad guy just for walking away
Call me the villain, if that’s what you need
But I was the one who was trying to believe
If loving you made me the enemy
Then I’ll wear the crown—but it’s not really me
⸻
[Verse 1] (Rap)
Yeah, you cut the scene where I stayed up nights
Held you together when you couldn’t fight
Left out the parts where I gave you trust
But kept every moment I lost my touch
You got the spotlight, I got the blame
You tell your version, I take the shame
But truth don’t bend just ‘cause you hurt
You dug that hole, now I’m in the dirt
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
You needed someone you could blame it on
So you turned me into what I’m not
If I’m the shadow in your light—
Why was I the one who tried?
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m the villain in your story, I can see it now
You paint me black and white, but you don’t know how
I was fighting for the truth, you were saving face
Now I’m the bad guy just for walking away
Call me the villain, if that’s what you need
But I was the one who was trying to believe
If loving you made me the enemy
Then I’ll wear the crown—but it’s not really me
⸻
[Verse 2] (Rap – sharper, introspective)
Yeah, perspective twisted like a shattered lens
You lost me once, now you lose me again
Turned my silence into something loud
Told your friends I was dragging you down
But I was lifting while you let me fall
Took every hit just to have it all
Now I’m the lesson that you rewrite—
Truth don’t fade, it just waits for light
⸻
[Bridge] (Soft → build)
Maybe I’m the villain in your eyes
But heroes don’t always wear a disguise
Sometimes they leave when it’s killing them slow…
Sometimes the “bad guy” is letting you go
[Final Chorus – Bigger / emotional payoff]
I’m the villain in your story, tell it how you want
Turn me into everything that I was not
I won’t fight your version anymore
I know my truth—I don’t need yours
Call me the villain, I’ll take the name
But deep down we both know who changed
If being good meant losing me—
Then I’m okay with your fantasy
[Outro]
Yeah…
I’m your villain—
But I know who I am.
