Verse 1 You smile like a sermon, preach peace with a knife Talk in circles, rewrite your crimes You need a mirror that claps when you breathe I don’t buy the act, I don’t bow, I don’t kneel You fish for applause, I cut through the line You gaslight the room, I turn on the lights You call it “truth” when it benefits you I call it bullshit—yeah, that’s why you lose Pre-Chorus You don’t hate me for what I’ve done You hate me ‘cause I’m not blind Chorus Narcissists hate me ‘cause I see through the skin X-ray eyes, yeah, I read the sin I don’t feed the ego, I don’t play pretend I see the cracks and I say them out loud You need control, I don’t need your crown You hate me ‘cause I see who you are now Verse 2 You love the weak, you despise the aware You need an audience, I don’t sit there You charm the room then rot it inside I hear what you don’t say, I watch where you hide You call me “angry,” “crazy,” “too much” Funny how truth hits harder than fists You tried to frame me for your decay But I don’t carry your shame Pre-Chorus You can’t manipulate what won’t submit You can’t own someone who won’t forget Chorus Narcissists hate me ‘cause I see through the skin X-ray eyes, yeah, I read the sin I don’t feed the ego, I don’t play pretend I see the cracks and I say them out loud You need control, I don’t need your crown You hate me ‘cause I see who you are now Bridge (drop it, half-time, venomous) I don’t mirror you I don’t worship you I don’t need your praise to breathe I don’t fear you I don’t need you That’s the thing you can’t forgive You lose power when I stay calm You lose face when I stay honest Breakdown / Scream Option Expose me—go ahead, try Truth don’t flinch when liars cry Final Chorus (bigger, angrier) Narcissists hate me ‘cause I won’t comply I see the mask fall every time I don’t orbit you, I don’t need your light You’re loud, you’re empty, I’m done being polite You feed on silence, I speak my mind You hate me ‘cause I see through the lie Outro I was never the problem— I was the proof.
