[Intro] [Spoken | Clear | Firm] [Delivery: Speak clearly, firm tone, no softness] Like a boy… Right… So that’s the move, yeah --- [Spoken | Conversational] You learned the steps, yeah I can see that Same rhythm, different beat, I’ll give you that You took the lines, flipped the script Changed the role, thought that was it But playing me isn’t power It’s just you in a different outfit --- [Spoken | Slight Lift] You say you switched You say you changed But it’s the same game just rearranged --- [Spoken | Clear] You don’t win by doing what I did You just end up where I lived --- [Spoken | Sharper] Break hearts like a toy, yeah I heard that line Funny thing is, that was never mine You saw the damage, not the cost You saw the move, but missed the loss You think control means no regret But numb and strong ain’t the same set --- [Spoken | Direct] You call it freedom no chains, no ties But cutting loose isn’t the same as being right You don’t feel less you just feel later --- [Fast Conversational | Clear | Tight] You say you’re living like a boy, like it’s power in the move Like you flipped it, like you cracked it, like there’s nothing left to prove But you’re mirroring behaviour, not the weight behind the choice You took the tone, not the reason, just the echo, not the voice Break hearts like a toy, yeah you said that with a grin But you’re playing at the surface, never really stepping in You saw distance as control, saw detachment as a win But you’re dodging every feeling, calling that a thicker skin Neon on your skin, heat in your veins, all the lines you rehearse But you copied all the symptoms, never looked at what they’re worth Talk about the roles, yeah you switch and you reverse But you’re still inside the pattern, just performing it in reverse No chains, no shame, no pain, that’s the claim that you repeat But removing all the feeling doesn’t mean you can’t be beat You say no regrets, but you frame it in defeat Cos you built a whole persona just to keep it incomplete You say you’d walk away, say you’d leave without a trace But you still write the story, still revolve around the space Still naming every action, still describing every place If it didn’t mean a thing, you wouldn’t carry it this way You say live like a boy, but you’re stuck inside the view Cos you learned the outer movement, not the reasons that we do You’re not breaking any system, you’re just shifting what you knew Same cycle, same pattern, just a different point of view --- [Spoken | Slower] You wanted to know how it feels But you skipped the part where it’s real --- [Spoken | Controlled] You can love like a boy move like a boy say all the lines that make the noise But if it’s built on what I did you’re just running the same script again --- [Spoken | Calm | Clear] Not the same game Just the same rules… with a different name
