[Intro, Slow Build] Yo, face to face with the bullies' disguise, Throwing shade while they hide behind lies. Treating my life like it’s some kind of game, But I’m here to break through, they’ll remember my name. [Verse 1] They stash the wisdom, keep it locked away, Behind condescending looks that don’t fade. I’m reaching for knowledge, tryna break through their flex, But all I feel is the weight of their disrespect. They push me down, leave me in the dark, Laughing as they dim the spark of my heart. But every insult’s fuel, I’m stacking it high— One day, that fire’s gonna light the sky. [Pre-Chorus, Reflective] They guard their secrets, keep me in the cold, Scornful eyes, watching like they own my soul. But I’m digging deep, I’ll rewrite this plot, What they buried, I’ll find, whether they like it or not. [Chorus, Uplifting Energy] These bullies, yeah, they cage me with their games, But chains were made to break, I’m shedding the shame. Their whispers, their smirks, their false masquerade, I’ll rise above, won’t let my spirit degrade. They try to keep me down, but I’ve got my own wave, In the face of their hate, I’m choosing to be brave. [Verse 2, Intense] I’m standing solo, fists clenched, battle’s begun, Taking hits, but they ain’t stopping what I’ve become. They measure power by how much they oppress, But that measure’s flawed—watch what happens next. Do they even know the pain they plant will bloom? Every scar I carry’s a badge of my journey to overcome. I’ve learned patience—my strike won’t be loud, I stand alone, fists raised high, the fight set to start, Enduring their blows, yet they can't crush this heart. [Bridge, Poignant and Reflective] They hide their secrets, thinking I won’t find, But every closed door builds a sharper mind. They reprimand, mock, and grin as they watch me fall, But I’ll rise, 'cause even the tallest crumble and crawl. [Chorus, Reprise with More Power] These bullies, yeah, they cage me with their games, But chains were made to break, I’m shedding the shame. Their whispers, their smirks, their false masquerade, I’ll rise above, won’t let my spirit degrade. They try to keep me down, but I’ve got my own wave, In the face of their hate, I’m choosing to be brave. [Outro, Slow Fade] Yeah, they thought I’d be buried in their ridicule, But even stone breaks under pressure, that’s the rule. Every dog has its day—now they’ll see mine rise, What they tried to bury is breaking the skies.
