Hmmm... Yeah... Verse 1 Don’t roll your eyes, don’t say you get it When you’ve already closed the case Your voice walks in and fills the room Mine barely makes it past my face You laugh it off like that’s the toll For standing anywhere near your flame You say, That’s just the price you pay If you wanna be my friend. Pre-Chorus Funny how you read the room so well Hear the words before they land Know exactly when to speak too loud And when silence is command But somewhere in that gifted sight You missed the space I’m standing in One look from you and I’m on trial For something I didn’t even say yet Chorus You mistake me for someone else Just because I don’t fight out loud I’m quiet, not invisible I just don’t bleed in crowds You dismiss my thoughts mid-sentence Like you already know the end But I’m done being edited Just to fit inside your lens Verse 2 You fire fast, you fill the air No room left for my reply I’m counting breaths, letting smoke clear While you decide who’s wrong or right I choose my battles inward first I carry weight you never see I write it down, I set it free This is my declaration me Pre-Chorus 2 What’s the difference between you and I? You turn sparks into wildfire I take the ache, I hold it close Lay it down, then let it sail You twist things into what they’re not Or what they might have been They call it insight, call it sharp I call it wearing down my skin Chorus You mistake me for someone else Just because I won’t explode I’m quiet, not your afterthought Not something you control You dismiss me before I’m finished Say you know what I’ll defend But I’m done being talked over By someone who won’t listen Bridge (raw, slower) Some stay and learn to fight you back Some leave and never look behind The ones who stay are more than enough Just never what you had in mind You want strength without the mess Truth without the tone But connection needs humility Not just being the loudest one Final Chorus (bigger) So don’t roll your eyes, don’t tell me I just need thicker skin I’ve been standing in your shadow Trying not to cave in I won’t shrink to keep your peace Or swallow what I meant If you can’t hear me as I am Then this this is where it ends Outro (raw honest) I’m quiet But I’m not confused And I won’t be dismissed... Not even from you.
