You counted every scar like trophies Lined them up along my spine Bent my shoulders Cracked my ribs Called that “yours” and called it “mine” You wanted me on my knees Head down Choking on your pride Ten long years of shrinking small Just to fit inside your lies You wanna throw shit? I’ll spit it back Every word Every bruise I’m done staying slack You built your throne On my broken back I’m walking out upright Watch me attack You wanna throw shit? I’ll spit it back You stagger through your twisted stories Blaming ghosts for what you’ve done Played the victim Played the martyr But you always held the gun Thought I’d stay your twisted mirror Warped reflection made to please But I found my face again And it sure as hell ain’t on its knees You wanna throw shit? I’ll spit it back Every word Every bruise I’m done staying slack You built your throne On my broken back I’m walking out upright Watch me attack You wanna throw shit? I’ll spit it back I am not your soft excuse (no more) I am not your favorite wound (no more) Every time you push me down I stand up higher than you (higher than you, hey) You wanna throw shit? I’ll spit it back Every word Every bruise I’m done staying slack You had a chance To be something intact Now all you get from me Is truth turned to impact You wanna throw shit? I’ll spit it back I’m walking out upright Watch me attack
