Wipe One Clean

Verse 1 They come in different suits, different smiles, Different stories, same old style. Talk real sweet while they sharpen their teeth, Leave mud on your name, leave stains on your peace. I used to wonder, “Is it me?” But I learned what rot smells like eventually. Same kind of shadow, same cheap scene, Different face, but the same machine. Pre-Chorus And I ain’t bitter, I’m just done, I quit pretending filth is fun. Some people leave a mess so mean, You gotta do what you gotta do to wipe one clean. Verse 2 They’ll gaslight the room till the walls turn gray, Then call you crazy when you walk away. They’ll borrow your light, then dim your name, Then swear to God they never touched the flame. But truth don’t beg, and peace don’t chase, I’m done saving every ugly face. Some doors close like holy rain, Some goodbyes disinfect the pain. Pre-Chorus And I ain’t cruel, I’m just free, I found the soap inside of me. Some people leave a mess obscene, You gotta do what you gotta do to wipe one clean. Chorus Assholes are all the same, Different mask, same little game. They talk too loud, they cut too deep, Then act surprised when you don’t weep. So light the match, rinse the scene, Wash that poison off your dream. Yeah, you gotta do what you gotta do To wipe one clean. Bridge Flush the lies, bleach the floor, I don’t live there anymore. Burn the script, change the key, No more stink attached to me. If they made a mess of my name, I’ll scrub it down and bless the flame. Final Chorus Assholes are all the same, Different mask, same little game. But I got gloves and I got grace, I got fire in a sacred place. So let it go, let it gleam, Turn that wreckage into steam. Yeah, you gotta do what you gotta do— Sometimes healing’s mean. You gotta do what you gotta do To wipe one clean. Outro Different face, same routine… Goodbye, baby. Wipe one clean.
