Intro) Yeah… Lights fade, heart cold, new code. I had to let the old one go. (Verse 1) I burned my past in a silver flame, Told my demons, “you can’t know my name.” Mirror cracked, I watched it bleed, The man I was — he’s dead to me. (Pre-Chorus) Fame was a ghost that I used to chase, Now I wear silence like a holy grace. Every scar, every sin, every gold key, Unlocked the cage — and I set me free. (Chorus) I had to kill the old me to feel alive, Buried my fear where the stars collide. I’m the spark in the dark, the code in the key, Yeah, I had to kill — the old me. (Verse 2) They loved the mask, they never saw the man, I built empires out of quicksand. Now I rise where the silence screams, Power born from broken dreams. (Pre-Chorus 2) I was lost in a maze I designed myself, Selling my truth for somebody else. Now I breathe in truth, exhale deceit, My evolution’s on repeat. (Chorus) I had to kill the old me to feel alive, Buried my fear where the stars collide. I’m the spark in the dark, the code in the key, Yeah, I had to kill — the old me. (Bridge) No halos, no saints, just blood and light, I fought myself through endless nights. If death is rebirth, then I’m finally free, Goodbye to the ghost — hello to me. (Final Chorus / Outro) I had to kill the old me to feel alive, Now I’m flying through the neon sky. No chains, no pain, no disbelief, Just the sound of peace — and my release. (glitch outro, “old me… old me…” echo fading)
