[Intro – low, tense]
You said “just us”… steel to steel
No witnesses, no cracks, no appeal
But whispers travel faster than truth
And now I see the fracture in you
[Verse 1 – building]
I brought it straight, no mask, no spin
Trusted the code we’re standing in
You wore the weight, you knew the line
But folded quick when it wasn’t mine
Quiet rooms, concrete walls
That’s where truth is supposed to fall
Not passed around like cheap control
You didn’t just slip—you sold the role
[Pre-Chorus – rising]
You broke the chain you swore you’d keep
Now every word just cuts too deep
[Chorus – explosive]
You let it slip—now watch it burn
Respect is something you don’t return
Anchor’s heavy till it drags you down
You lost your ground, you lost that crown
I gave you truth, you gave me lies
Now I see through the rank disguise
No more trust, no second call
Should’ve kept it to you, me, and the wall
[Verse 2 – aggressive]
This isn’t anger—it’s clarity
Cutting out your duality
You played the part, but missed the mark
Now your shadow’s showing in the dark
I don’t forget, I don’t ignore
I see the cracks beneath the core
You wore the badge but dropped the weight
Now you’re just noise I won’t translate
[Breakdown – halftime, crushing]
You talked.
You broke.
You cracked the code we never spoke.
No spine.
No line.
Don’t wear that trust—it’s never mine.
You chose the easy way out
Now drown in the fallout
[Chorus – heavier repeat]
You let it slip—now watch it burn
Respect is something you don’t return
Anchor’s heavy till it drags you down
You lost your ground, you lost that crown
I gave you truth, you gave me lies
Now I see through the rank disguise
No more trust, no second call
Should’ve kept it to you, me, and the wall
[Outro – stripped, cold]
Steel remembers what men forget
And I don’t forgive—I just reset
