Verse 1 (staccato, fast)
Raised on slogans, not advice
Truth shrink-wrapped, one perfect size
Every doubt gets side-eyed quick
Curiosity labeled sick
Lines get drawn before we speak
Crowd decides what’s strong or weak
Say it clean, don’t hesitate
Free thought’s always running late
Pre-Chorus (lift)
If it’s fragile, keep it loud
If it’s hollow, join the crowd
Chorus (wide, punchy)
I don’t need a megaphone
To tell me I’m not alone
If it’s real, it doesn’t mind
Every question crossing lines
I won’t trade my pulse for peace
Or rent my brain for certainty
If thinking makes me hard to please
Good, that’s how it’s supposed to be
Verse 2 (groove switch)
Every feed’s a loyalty test
Say it wrong, you’re laid to rest
Context dies in thirty seconds
Outrage pays a higher dividend
They sell comfort dressed as truth
Soft restraints and tighter rules
Call it safety, call it care
As long as no one stops and stares
Pre-Chorus
When belief needs guards and gates
That’s not faith, it’s fear in shape
Chorus
I don’t need a megaphone
To tell me I’m not alone
If it’s real, it doesn’t mind
Every question crossing lines
I won’t trade my pulse for peace
Or rent my brain for certainty
If thinking makes me hard to please
Good, that’s how it’s supposed to be
Bridge (Neck Deep weight, half-time)
Maybe I’m tired of easy answers
That fall apart under pressure
If the truth can’t take a hit
Then it’s not built for this
Breakdown (Blink chaos)
Clap on cue
Say it right
Wrong opinion, wrong tonight
Nod it through
Don’t ask when
Thinking ends where trends begin
Final Chorus (last lift)
I don’t need your unity
If it costs my clarity
I’ll take friction, I’ll take heat
Over quiet disbelief
No script taped inside my head
No borrowed words I never said
I don’t need your certainty
I’d rather choose complexity
