[Intro – airy, distant, almost whispered] Echoes in the glass… I see a god with a fracture Gold glow, no soul… just a beautiful capture Yeah… Heaven got a filter now [Hook – melodic, hypnotic, slightly haunting] Hollow halo, heavy on my head though Shinin’ like I’m blessed but it’s dead glow Angel in the mirror lookin’ dead broke Smilin’ for the crowd with a red soul Hollow halo, don’t let ‘em get close Light so artificial it’s a dress code Floatin’ but I’m sinkin’ in the echo Heaven ain’t a place I can rest, no [Verse 1 – reflective, layered storytelling] Yeah, I learned to levitate in rooms full of doubt Now I hover over pain but it’s bloom from a drought They see the aura, think it’s holy how I move through the crowd But it’s fumes from a fire I been usin’ to shout Jewels like constellations, but they chainin’ my thoughts Every diamond got a story, every story got cost I was prayin’ for a throne, now the throne feel lost ‘Cause the king wear a crown but it’s coated in frost Cold shoulders, I got fame in a chokehold Applause echo louder when your soul go I could sell ‘em every dream I was told though But the script feel rehearsed, it’s a ghost role Look— I been dancin’ with reflections I don’t recognize Every blessing feelin’ cursed in a better disguise Got the glow but it flicker when I step inside So I keep the lights on, never question why [Hook – repeat, fuller instrumentation] Hollow halo, heavy on my head though Shinin’ like I’m blessed but it’s dead glow Angel in the mirror lookin’ dead broke Smilin’ for the crowd with a red soul Hollow halo, don’t let ‘em get close Light so artificial it’s a dress code Floatin’ but I’m sinkin’ in the echo Heaven ain’t a place I can rest, no [Verse 2 – more aggressive, punchline-heavy] I made a million off illusions, now I’m payin’ in truth Every lie I ever sold got a stain on the proof I put the “icon” in isolation, hidin’ the root ‘Cause the higher that I climb, less I’m able to root See the halo just a brand, it ain’t heaven-sent It’s a marketing plan with a reverence I’m a god in they eyes, that’s the evidence But internally I’m fightin’ irrelevance Double life, I got a saint and a savage blend Holy water turn to wine when the cameras spin I could baptize the pain, let it vanish then But it come back stronger like a phantom sin They don’t see the fine print in the fame contract Every smile got a clause I can’t redact I’m a light to the world but it drain me black Like a star burn bright just to fade to black [Bridge – dreamy, melodic, almost dissolving] If I fall from the sky, would they notice me? Or just worship the light that I’m ‘posed to be? I been chasin’ a glow that controlling me Now the dark feel closer than it’s ‘posed to be [Hook – stripped, echo-heavy, vulnerable] Hollow halo, heavy on my head though Shinin’ like I’m blessed but it’s dead glow Angel in the mirror lookin’ dead broke Smilin’ for the crowd with a red soul Hollow halo… Hollow halo… Heaven ain’t a place I can rest, no [Outro – fading, spoken tone] They love the light… They don’t ask what it cost … Halo still glowin’ But it’s hollow
