[Intro – atmospheric, filtered vocal] You never know a man’s low… Till there’s nobody left to show… No eyes… no stage… no glow… [Verse 1 – tight, rhythmic, half-rap] You never know a man’s low till the room go quiet No applause, no crowd, no need to stay righteous Mask slip quick when the lights don’t glow True self bleed when there’s no front row Yeah they polished in the public, keep it clean for the image But alone they turn cold, no limits to the damage You can see it in the way that they move in the dark No spotlight needed just to show who they are [Pre-Chorus – rising tension] It leaks out slow… when nobody knows… No filter left… yeah it finally shows… [Chorus – big, catchy, heavy drop] You can judge ‘em by the way they move When there’s no one there to watch what they do No lights, no crowd, no front row view That’s when the truth comes breaking through They smile and wave in the light, behave Play the part that the whole world gave But strip it down, no disguise to save That’s the man that they really made [Drop – EDM/nu-metal hybrid, chant-style] No witness — no disguise No witness — truth don’t hide No witness — see inside That’s where the real ones die [Verse 2 – more aggressive, borderline scream rap] How they treat the ones below says everything you need Power ain’t the test — it’s humility Watch ‘em when they think nobody’s keeping score That’s the core, that’s the war they ignore Step on the weak, then grin for the camera Cold in the shadows but bright with the glamour Yeah, they fake that grace, rehearsed every line But the devil shows face when they think it’s fine [Pre-Chorus – distorted, layered vocals] It leaks out loud… when there’s no crowd… No mask allowed… say it now… [Chorus – harder, layered vocals] You can judge ‘em by the way they move When there’s no one there to watch what they do No lights, no crowd, no front row view That’s when the truth comes breaking through They smile and wave in the light, behave Play the part that the whole world gave But strip it down, no disguise to save That’s the man that they really made [Bridge – stripped, eerie → explosive build] No eyes on you… who are you now? No praise, no proof… no taking a bow… Would you still stand… or break it down? Would you still care… if none were around? [Final Drop – biggest impact] No witness — no disguise No witness — truth don’t hide No witness — see inside That’s where the real ones— [Outro – fading, haunting] You never know a man’s low… Till there’s nobody left to show…
