STATIC IN MY HEAD

[Intro – low, almost spoken] Static in my head Trying to tell me who I am.... I don’t buy it [Verse 1 – rapid-fire, controlled anger] Woke up tired of playin' a role Smile stitch'd over a fractur'd soul They say “believe,” I say “prove it first” I been diggin' through the doubt and dirt I don’t need heaven drawn in gold I just need truth I can actually hold Light and dark in the same damn skin If that’s a sin, I’m leanin' in [Pre-Chorus – emotional build] I was taught to kneel, not ask why Taught to wait while my fear grew high But somethin' in me won’t stay quiet I feel alive when I start the riot [Chorus – shouted, raw] I DON’T WANT A CROWN OR A NAME I JUST WANT OUT OF THE CAGE LIGHT AND DARK IN MY BLOOD I’M NOT BROKEN — I’M AWAKE [Verse 2 – rapid-fire, more personal] Every voice says “pick a side” But I live where the lines collide I been lost, I been scared, I been wrong Still standin', still movin' on I don’t trust what I can’t question I don’t kneel for empty lessons If knowing hurts, let it hurt me I’d rather bleed than live blurry [Bridge – stripped back, vulnerable] If there’s a god, it’s in the breath Between the fear and what comes next I don’t need savin' from myself I just need to know myself [Chorus – shouted, bigger] I DON’T WANT A CROWN OR A THRONE I JUST WANT MY MIND MY OWN LIGHT AND DARK, BOTH MINE TO CHOOSE I SEE THE TRUTH — I DON’T REFUSE [Breakdown – minimal, human] Not holy Not evil Just real [Final Chorus – full intensity] I STOP WAITING FOR A SIGN I DRAW THE LINE, I CLAIM THE TIME IF THIS IS WRONG, I’LL WEAR THE SCAR I KNOW WHO I AM [Outro – quiet, fading] Static fades I stay
