Lyrics
[Intro]
Clock on the wall, same scar in the paint
Another day wearing yesterday's weight
[Verse 1]
Time moves slow when you're behind bars
Four gray walls, no map, no stars
Mind runs circles till the floor wears thin
Every locked door grows another one within
Names get traded like cards in a game
Some speak soft but they study your name
I learned quick what a promise can cost
How a little trust turns into something lost
Outside, the world keeps moving on
Buses pull out, morning turns to dawn
Inside, every footstep changes the air
Head on a swivel, nobody plays fair
[Hook]
They want a monster, so they feed the cage
Turn every quiet thought into a page
Fake words fall flat when the room goes still
I keep my pulse low, but I carry the chill
They want a monster, they measure the scars
I count every second between these bars
Outside keeps spinning, I stay awake
Nothing but survival in every move I make
[Verse 2]
Serval in my head, pacing side to side
Wild-eyed focus with nowhere to hide
I hear the latch before it starts to turn
Feel every lesson in the bridges burned
No clean heroes in a place this cold
Truth gets bent before it gets told
A smile can sharpen, a handshake can sting
Every small favor comes tied to a string
I write my thoughts where the dust won't read
Cut out the noise, protect what I need
If I leave this place, I won't leave the same
The cage has a key, but it remembers my name
[Hook]
They want a monster, so they feed the cage
Turn every quiet thought into a page
Fake words fall flat when the room goes still
I keep my pulse low, but I carry the chill
They want a monster, they measure the scars
I count every second between these bars
Outside keeps spinning, I stay awake
Nothing but survival in every move I make
[Bridge]
Don't call me broken, call me aware
I learned to breathe when there was no air
Don't call me empty, look in my eyes
I kept one spark where the daylight dies
[Final Hook]
They want a monster, but I know the cost
I know every piece that the silence has lost
Fake words fall flat, let the whole room shake
I walk out carrying every choice I make
[Outro]
Time moves slow, but the mind still runs
Behind these bars, I became someone
Outside keeps moving, beyond my sight
I keep my head up through another night
