Maniac

Intro (calm, controlled)

Yeah

Quiet mind, quiet room

Heart ticking like a metronome

I’m good… I’m good

I said I’m good

⸻

Verse 1 (cocky, sharp)

I’m focused, I’m steady, I’m moving precise

Every thought in a row, every cut with a knife

I don’t miss, I don’t slip, I don’t trip on the past

I just laugh at the cracks, keep my foot on the gas

Everybody talk loud, I just smile and wait

I been ten steps ahead, let ‘em argue with fate

I don’t stress, I don’t bend, I don’t break what I built

I got ice in my veins, I got calm in my guilt

⸻

Hook (confident, catchy)

I’m fine, I’m fine, yeah I say that a lot

But the echo in my head getting harder to stop

I’m fine, I’m fine, keep the mask real tight

If I say it enough maybe it turns into right

⸻

Verse 2 (paranoid edge creeping in)

Why they looking like that when I finish a line?

Why the room feel smaller every time that I shine?

I swear I heard my name in the back of the sound

Every laugh feel sharp, every smile feel loud

I don’t sleep much now, but I’m sharper awake

If I close my eyes then I feel it all shake

I been writing my thoughts just to prove they’re okay

But the words keep staring back, saying “stay”

⸻

Hook (strained, faster)

I’m fine, I’m fine, yeah I swear I’m straight

But my pulse don’t match when I try to relate

I’m fine, I’m fine, if I breathe real slow

Why my hands still shake when I already know?

⸻

Verse 3 (manic confidence, messy flow)

I don’t need help, nah, help need me

I see patterns nobody else see

Clock on the wall talking way too slick

Tick got teeth, wanna bite my wrist

I been pacing lines into carpet burns

If I stop moving then my chest might turn

Inside out, upside down, let me talk real fast

If I don’t say it now then it won’t last

⸻

Bridge (fractured, almost shouted)

Don’t touch that

Don’t move that

Why you breathing like that?

Say it again—

No, say it back

No—

Say it right

⸻

Verse 4 (full breakdown, disjointed)

I’m not crazy

I’m not—

I just hear everything at once

Walls lean in when I blink too long

Who wrote this?

I don’t remember this song

My thoughts overlap like they fighting for space

I see my face split into pieces of blame

If I laugh right now is it real or a test?

If I scream will the room finally rest?

⸻

Final Hook (distorted, desperate)

I’m fine I’m fine I’m fine I’m fine

Say it again till it sound like mine

I’m fine I’m fine don’t look at me

If you see too much you’ll see what I see

⸻

Outro (quiet, unsettling)

…yeah

I’m good

I said I’m good

Why you still listening?
