Who I’ve Become

[Intro]
Yeah
Been a long way down
To get this high
(uh)
[Verse 1]
I was counting cracks in my ceiling
Talking to the dark like a friend
Every little scar had a meaning
Every quiet night never end
I was chasing shadows in the mirror
Trying on a face that fit
Told myself "tomorrow I'll be different"
Tomorrow never did
[Pre-Chorus]
Now my heart got a siren in it
Red flash in a quiet kitchen
I was praying just to make it to the finish
Now I'm sprinting past the line, no limit (yeah)
[Chorus]
I don’t even recognize who I’ve become
Turned my damage to a drum, now it thumps
All the ghosts that had me running, now they run
I’m alive in the fire, I’m the sun
I don’t even recognize who I’ve become
Took the weight on my chest, turned it numb
Now I’m screaming from the bottom of my lungs
I’m afraid and I love
Who I’ve become
[Verse 2]
Used to bite my tongue till it bled
Swallowed every word, played nice
Now I write my name on the edge
Tattooed on the teeth of vice
Every little "no" they fed me
Turned into a war drum, heavy
I was made in a flood of regret
Now I walk on the waves, still wet (yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
Every bruise, every blame, every breakdown
Built a staircase outta breakdowns
Thought the dark was a pit, it’s a playground
I was buried, now I’m banging on the gates loud (hey!)
[Chorus]
I don’t even recognize who I’ve become
Turned my damage to a drum, now it thumps
All the ghosts that had me running, now they run
I’m alive in the fire, I’m the sun
I don’t even recognize who I’ve become
Took the weight on my chest, turned it numb
Now I’m screaming from the bottom of my lungs
I’m afraid and I love
Who I’ve become
[Bridge]
Hands shake, but I still hold on
Eyes red, but I still see dawn
If I fall, I’mma fall headstrong
Hit the ground, make a brand new song (woah)
If I break, that’s a cracked halo
Little light still leaks through, say so
If I die to the past, that’s payload
Blow it up just to watch this day glow
[Chorus]
I don’t even recognize who I’ve become
Turned my damage to a drum, now it thumps
All the ghosts that had me running, now they run
I’m alive in the fire, I’m the sun
I don’t even recognize who I’ve become
Took the weight on my chest, turned it numb
Now I’m screaming from the bottom of my lungs
I’m afraid and I love
Who I’ve become
(yeah, yeah)
