Steel-Taste Victory

Verse 1 Your smile cuts like a dagger, But I’ve learned the taste of steel. You say you’re “only trying to help,” But your poison’s all I feel. You think I’m blind in the shadows, But I see every crooked grin. I’ve been stacking every secret Like a war I’m gonna win. Pre‑Chorus You think I’m quiet, But I’m the storm beneath the floorboards. You think I’m broken, But I’m sharpening my own swords. Chorus ’Cause when I come out swinging, It’ll sound like thunder in your bones. You thought you had me cornered, Thought you finally claimed the throne. But I’ve been waiting in the darkness, Letting you choke on your own schemes. And when I come out swinging — I’ll tear apart your dreams. Verse 2 You laugh behind my back, But your echo’s getting thin. I’ve memorized your footsteps, Every lie you’re drowning in. You think you’ve got the upper hand, But darling, that’s your grave. I’m the shadow in your doorway, I’m the truth you can’t enslave. Pre‑Chorus You think I’m done, But I’m the calm before the breaking. You think you’ve won, But you don’t see the hell you’re waking. Chorus ’Cause when I come out swinging, It’ll sound like thunder in your bones. You thought you had me cornered, Thought you finally claimed the throne. But I’ve been waiting in the darkness, Letting you choke on your own schemes. And when I come out swinging — I’ll tear apart your dreams. Bridge I’m the whisper in the graveyard, I’m the frost that chills your breath. You pushed me past forgiveness — Now I’m walking hand‑in‑hand with death. You thought you broke me open, But I forged myself anew. And every scar you carved in me Is a weapon aimed at you. Final Chorus When I come out swinging, You’ll feel the world split at the seams. You built your throne on ashes, Now drown inside your screams. I rise like fire in the ruins, While you crumble in your hate. ’Cause when I come out swinging — I decide your fate.
