[Intro]
Silent whispers, shadows grow
Trust was a seed I let them sow
[Verse 1]
I opened up, I let you in
Shared my heart, shed my skin
But behind my back, the lies unfurled
Shit-talkin’ stories half the world
[Pre-Chorus]
You knew my truth, you knew my name
Still played your game, you caused the pain
Using my past like a weapon to attack
But I’m done with the lies, I’m taking my track
[Chorus]
Is it so much to ask for respect?
To call me Noah, keep my deck
Don’t let my past resurface, unfurl
I just want to be seen in this new world
[Bridge]
Redacted in secrecy, I stand tall
No more shadows, I break the wall
Reclaim my voice, my rightful name
No more hurt, no more shame
[Outro]
So here I am, standing free
Rewriting my story, just let me be
Friends no more, but I’m okay
Finally living for today
