[Intro] Step close, read the room, see the paint on the wall Big talk in a small frame, now you're shrinking tall [Verse 1] You borrowed every posture, every phrase, every pose I can spot the loose stitching in the suit that you chose Claim a throne made of cardboard, call it solid gold One gust from the truth and the whole act folds You rehearse for the mirror, then you freeze in the crowd All volume, no substance, trying hard to sound proud I bring receipts in a folder, dates marked in red You bring rumors and a grin like the truth is dead [Pre-Chorus] No disguise, no detour, no place left to hide When the bass drops low, hear the bluff divide [Chorus] You talk like a boss, but the record says no Every step that you take leaves a trail in the snow I don't need your crown, I don't need your crew I just hold up the facts and they point back to you [Verse 2] Your shine came rented, your story came staged Your best line got borrowed from a page you misplaced I built mine brick by brick while you waited for praise Now the room knows the difference between craft and a craze You mistake being noticed for earning respect But a loud little rumor still fails the test When the lights turn plain and the camera rolls still Who are you without a borrowed name to fill? [Bridge] Count it out, one, two, three, let the mask hit the floor Four, five, six, nobody buys it anymore Seven, eight, nine, hear the whole block say Truth walks in slow, then it takes your place [Chorus] You talk like a boss, but the record says no Every step that you take leaves a trail in the snow I don't need your crown, I don't need your crew I just hold up the facts and they point back to you [Outro] Keep the pose, keep the story, keep the costume on cue When the beat cuts out, what's left is you
