Untitled

I’ve been walking through the static

Every voice wants something from me

Tongues like knives, they talk in circles

Try to tell me who I should be

I learned early not to listen

To the poison in their tone

If I give them all my anger

Then I’m never standing on my own

I feel the pressure climbing

But I’m breathing through the weight

They want a reaction

I won’t give them what they crave

I keep my head above the fire

While they’re begging me to fall

I won’t let the worst among us

Be the ones who take it all

I’ve been tested, I’ve been tired

I’ve been dragged through hell and back

But I rise with steady hands

I don’t break — I adapt

Every smile hides an angle

Every promise has a price

They mistake my silence

For weakness, not restraint

I’ve been bleeding in the background

Learning how to choose my wars

You can keep your empty power

I don’t need it anymore

I see through the violence

In the way they use control

I don’t need to shout to prove

I’m unshakeable

I keep my head above the fire

While they’re begging me to fall

I won’t let the worst among us

Be the ones who take it all

I’ve been tested, I’ve been tired

I’ve been dragged through hell and back

But I rise with steady hands

I don’t break — I adapt

You feed on chaos

You thrive on fear

I won’t become the monster

You want right here

(Transition to clean)

I’ve learned the power

Of walking away

You lose your grip

When I don’t play

I keep my head above the fire

I let the lies burn out below

I don’t need revenge or violence

Just the strength to let it go

I’ve been scarred, but I’m not shattered

I’ve been bent, but not erased

I stand calm in the pressure

With a level head — I face

I won’t sink

I won’t fade

I rise clearer through the flames
