TEETH [Intro] Yeah... You wanted the angry version? Fine. Let it fucking out. [Verse 1] I got pain in my chest and a blade in my diction, Every sentence I spit got a dangerous tension, I've been patient too long, now I'm breaking convention, Turn the rage in my head into lyrical pressure. You don't know what it took just to keep this shit breathing, All the nights I was hurting while everybody was sleeping, Had to smile through the bullshit, pretend I wasn't bleeding, Now I'm done being quiet just to make you feel comfortable. Fuck being comfortable. I want the beat distorted, I want the bass overloaded, I want every fucking speaker Feeling everything I noticed. I want the drums hitting hard enough to shake the floor, I want the guitar screaming like the voice I couldn't voice, I want every little ounce of anger I've avoided Coming out through the microphone until I don't have a choice. [Pre-Hook] I don't wanna talk. I don't wanna explain. You pushed me too far. Now you're gonna hear the pain. [Hook] I got teeth, I got teeth, I don't smile like I used to, I got rage underneath, I got scars, I got scars, Every one of 'em reminds me how we got this far. I got teeth, I got teeth, Try to push me to the edge, I'ma bite when I bleed, I got rage, I got grief, You can take away my peace but you can't take me. [Verse 2] I been swallowing words till my stomach was acidic, Now I'm spitting every thought with a venomous delivery, Got a head full of memories, all of 'em vivid, And a heart full of anger that I never admitted. I don't wanna be bitter, But bitterness made me sharper, Every time somebody hurt me I became a better artist. That's fucked up. Pain became production, Trauma became percussion, Anger became the function, Now every bar's combustion. You wanted vulnerability? Here. You wanted honesty? Here. You wanted the version of me That I keep buried every year? He's here. [Beat Switch] Guitars explode. [Verse 3] I don't need your fucking pity, I don't need your validation, I don't need another person Telling me to calm my frustration. I've been calm. I've been patient. I've been reasonable. Now I'm turning every ounce of what I swallowed Into something fucking lethal. Not to hurt you. To release me. There's a difference. I was choking on my anger Now I'm giving it a fucking voice. [Breakdown] Guitars drop to one crushing riff. GET OUT OF MY HEAD! GET OUT OF MY— HEAD! I'M DONE! I'M DONE! I'M DONE! [Hook] I got teeth, I got teeth, I don't smile like I used to, I got rage underneath, I got scars, I got scars, Every one of 'em reminds me how we got this far. I got teeth, I got teeth, Try to push me to the edge, I'ma bite when I bleed, I got rage, I got grief, You can take away my peace but you can't take me. [Final Verse] I turned every rejection into fuel for the engine, Every fucking betrayal into lyrical vengeance, Every time that I fell, I came back with a sentence, Now I'm standing in the fire like I built the damn furnace. I'm not angry because I lost. I'm angry because I survived. Because every time life tried to kill the dream, Something in me stayed alive. So let the guitars scream. Let the 808s crush. Let the vocals crack. Let the whole track erupt. This isn't hatred. This is pressure leaving. This is Platinum! Finally letting himself breathe. [Final Breakdown] Everything cuts except distorted guitar. You wanted the monster? ... You should've listened when I was still speaking softly. [Outro] Guitar feedback. I got teeth. But I don't bite everybody. Just the things that keep trying to eat me alive
