[Verse 1]
I came in pure, heart full of gold
Smile on my face, but the nights was cold
I tried to play fair, tried takin’ the high road
They laughed at the scars, said “watch him fold”
Every favor cost me a piece of my spine
Every promise broke right in front of my eyes
I asked for love, they handed me lies
So I learned real quick how to weaponize pride
I was loyal to people who prayed I would fail
Carried they weight, but I cracked under mine
Every “be patient” just sharpened the nail
They built the coffin and called it “my time”
Now I hear voices when I’m left alone
They say, “Remember who left you to drown”
I used to want peace, used to want a crown
Now I want silence when I shut it down
[Hook]
Don’t ask why I’m heartless, don’t act surprised
You fed me the darkness, then watched me rise
I begged for mercy, you handed me pain
Now I speak fluent villain, call it my name
Yeah, you made me this
You made me this
I was innocent once—don’t say I missed
You made me this
[Verse 2]
I learned how to smile with a blade in my sleeve
Learned how to trust but never believe
Every betrayal left ink on my soul
Now my past got a verse every time that I breathe
They love you when you’re quiet, broke, and confused
Hate when you sharpen the things you abused
I was a joke, now I’m headline news
Same mouths talkin’ like, “We always knew”
I stopped explainin’, I started collectin’
Receipts of the nights I was losing direction
Pain made a monster, but gave me protection
If love is a game, I’m done with the lessons
I don’t chase closure, I close the door
I don’t seek justice, I settle the score
They wanted an angel, I gave them a war
Now they scared of the thing they ignored
[Hook]
Don’t ask why I’m heartless, don’t act surprised
You fed me the darkness, then watched me rise
I begged for mercy, you handed me pain
Now I speak fluent villain, call it my name
Yeah, you made me this
You made me this
I was innocent once—don’t say I missed
You made me this
[Bridge – half-sung, half-rap]
I tried to be gentle, they broke my trust
Told me “forgive,” but I’m built from dust
If I’m the devil, look where I came from
Heaven was closed, so I made my own sun
[Verse 3]
Now every move calculated, cold and precise
No more rollin’ the dice with my heart in the price
I don’t need love, I don’t need advice
I turned every tear into permanent ice
They say, “You changed,” yeah, I had to adapt
Survival ain’t pretty, it’s teeth and it snaps
If this is a movie, I’m done with the past
I burned the old script, now I’m writing the last
[Final Hook – darker]
Don’t ask why I’m ruthless, don’t act surprised
You fed me the darkness, then watched me rise
I begged for mercy, you handed me pain
Now the villain’s the only thing keeping me sane
Yeah, you made me this
Remember this
When you point your finger, remember this
You made me this
[Outro]
I was good once…
But good don’t survive where I’m from.
