The Last Word

Verse 1

I bit my tongue till it tasted like rust

Called it love but boy, that was a bust

Held the door while you burned down the house

Said I’m sorry like I threw the match

You wore my silence like a crown

But paint me as the villain now

I’ve been collecting every truth

While you’ve been running from the proof

⸻

Pre-Chorus

You thought I’d stay small

Thought I’d stay scared

Thought I’d keep carrying

The weight you never bared

⸻

Chorus (belt this like your life depends on it)

You don’t get the last word

You don’t get my pain

You don’t get to rewrite

Why I broke away

I walked through the fire

You lit with your lies

If karma don’t get you

Baby — I survived

⸻

Verse 2

You love to look clean in a dirty room

Point fingers just to blur the view

Every promise you ever made

Was just a debt you’d never pay

I held us together with shaking hands

You called your grip “better plan”

But I see you now — no disguise

Just a boy hiding from his own lies

⸻

Pre-Chorus

You thought I’d stay quiet

Thought I’d stay weak

But you don’t get to haunt me

When I finally speak

⸻

Chorus

You don’t get the last word

You don’t get my fear

You don’t get to live rent-free

In my atmosphere

I walked through the fire

You lit with your lies

If karma don’t get you

Baby — I survived

⸻

Bridge (half-time, raw, almost spoken at first)

I used to pray you’d change

Now I never wanna hear your name

You don’t get forgiveness on demand

You don’t get access to who I am

(beat drops — full power)

I am not your villain… I am not;

I am not your past… I am not;

I am the truth

The truth you’ll never outrun

⸻

Final Chorus

You don’t get the last word

You don’t get my soul

You don’t get the story

That I now control

I walked through the fire

You lit with your lies

If karma don’t get you

Baby — I survived
