[Verse 1] They built you in a suit Polished shoes, blank smile Called you Mr Smith For a while Names in a glass box Rules on a silver tray Told me "fit right in" I walked away (ha, ha) I heard the same old line (hold on) "be good, be small, be fine" But your mask don't fit my face No, I won't stay in place [Pre-Chorus] Pressure on my skin Tight like a wire I can feel it fade When I climb higher Every step I take Cuts the thread apart Mr Smith can keep the script I keep my heart [Chorus] I’m not the name they gaaaave me I’m not the shape they drew I held my breath for too loooong Now I’m breathing through Let me riiise, let me riiise Out of the shadow, into the light I’m stepping into something hiiigher I’m something more tonight [Verse 2] You said "stay in line" "Keep your voice down low" But the truth in me Started to glow Dirty in my hands Genuine and loud I let the old name fall On the ground (oh-oh) I don't need your crown (oh-oh) I don't need your crowd If the door shuts hard tonight I'll make my own way out [Pre-Chorus] Pressure on my skin Tight like a wire I can feel it fade When I climb higher Every step I take Cuts the thread apart Mr Smith can keep the script I keep my heart [Chorus] I’m not the name they gaaaave me I’m not the shape they drew I held my breath for too loooong Now I’m breathing through Let me riiise, let me riiise Out of the shadow, into the light I’m stepping into something hiiigher I’m something more tonight [Bridge] [Breakdown] Low lights, bare floor Breath in the blue All the borrowed noise Falls right through I was made to bend I was made to wear Someone else's face Somewhere else But I still say no I still say mine Every locked-up door Turns to dust in time [Final Chorus] I’m not the name they gaaaave me I’m not the shape they drew I held my breath for too loooong Now I’m breathing through Let me riiise, let me riiise Out of the shadow, into the light I’m stepping into something hiiigher I’m something more tonight I’m not the name they gaaaave me I’m not the shape they drew I held my breath for too loooong Now I’m breathing through Let me riiise, let me riiise Out of the shadow, into the light I’m stepping into something hiiigher I’m something more tonight
