[Verse 1] You said my name Like a warning flare Burned it into paper Into courtroom air Neighbors close their curtains Friends just stare One story in a whisper And I’m already there [Chorus] You paint me as a monster in your mirror Every crack reflects a different lie Build a throne on every twisted rumor Climb it while you watch my future die You cry “wolf” to cover up your hunger Sharp smile hiding every bruise you deal You point at me to keep your halo brighter But your false witness cuts through steel [Verse 2] You rewrite the night Like a crooked script Turn your every shove To a trembling flinch Screenshot saints In a private chat Halo in the selfie Horns in the back [Chorus] You paint me as a monster in your mirror Every crack reflects a different lie Build a throne on every twisted rumor Climb it while you watch my future die You cry “wolf” to cover up your hunger Sharp smile hiding every bruise you deal You point at me to keep your halo brighter But your false witness cuts through steel [Bridge] I’m more than the story you sell (hey) More than your need to control I won’t be the grave that you dig To bury the weight in your soul Call it justice Call it power Dress it up in righteous rage But truth keeps scratching at the door Scraping at your stage (oh) [Chorus] You paint me as a monster in your mirror Every crack reflects a different lie Build a throne on every twisted rumor Climb it while you watch my future die You cry “wolf” to cover up your hunger Sharp smile hiding every bruise you deal You point at me to keep your halo brighter But your false witness cuts through steel
