Below the Surface (I'm Done) (Cover)

V6

[Verse 1] I smile like a knife in a silk glove Hands clean, voice soft, actin' like love I hold that calm like a loaded gun Polite in the room, but I'm not the one You see the warm face, the steady stare Never see the teeth that are twitchin' there I swallow the storm till my jaw locks tight Keep it all caged in, keep it outta sight I been the saint while the vultures fed Held my tongue while they stomped on my head Every scar got tucked where the sun don't reach Now the damage is deep and it learned to speak [Pre-Chorus] Don't mistook my still For a soul that's healed I've been burnin' slow Under cold control One more lie One more cut Then the floodgates break And that’s enough [Chorus] I'm done, I'm done Say my name with fear I'm done, I'm done The calm was the veneer Underneath, I’m a wildfire Underneath, I’m the funeral pyre (burn) I been patient long enough Now it's time to pay I'm done, I'm done Get out my way [Verse 2] Tragedy stacked like bricks in my chest Betrayal after betrayal, I failed the test Friends turned snakes in a cheap disguise Loved ones sold truth with dead-eyed lies I built my peace on a house of pain Held my breath through the flood and rain But every wound kept a receipt And every prayer came back incomplete So don't act shocked when I snap that chain When the ice in my veins turns to acid and flame I gave you grace, you gave me hell Now I'm a verdict and I ring the bell [Pre-Chorus] Don't mistook my still For a soul that's healed I've been burnin' slow Under cold control One more lie One more cut Then the floodgates break And that’s enough [Chorus] I'm done, I'm done Say my name with fear I'm done, I'm done The calm was the veneer Underneath, I’m a wildfire Underneath, I’m the funeral pyre (burn) I been patient long enough Now it's time to pay I'm done, I'm done Get out my way [Bridge] All that mercy turned to rust All that silence turned to dust You wanted a ghost, a statue, a saint Now watch me break what I used to contain No more masks No more grace I see red in a mirror-face If pain made me, then pain gets paid I am the storm you tried to tame [Breakdown] Pay up Pay up I been locked and loaded Pay up Pay up Now the whole thing's exploded I kept it deep Kept it neat Now the rage got feet Pay up Pay up Get off my street [Final Chorus] I'm done, I'm done Say my name with fear I'm done, I'm done The calm was the veneer Underneath, I’m a wildfire Underneath, I’m the funeral pyre (burn) I been patient long enough Now it's time to pay I'm done, I'm done Get out my way [Outro] The smile cracks The mask falls down I was the quiet Now I shake this town I'm done, I'm done I'm done, I'm done
