[Verse 1] I see the bloom on broken fruit Sweet on top Black in the root You dressed in charm Smelled like safety Left my nerves Torn and shaky You fed on shame Called it "fate" Bent my spine Till I bowed to the weight You loved me silent Numb and small You ate my "maybe" Mouth and all [Chorus] Rot I see you Crawling through my branches Distortion in my bones Twisting all my chances I say no No more This is where we cut you loose I burn or I return I stand in source truth I burn or I return I stand in source truth (hey!) [Verse 2] You live in every quiet "later" Every scroll Every favor to a faker You wear my face When I betray me Call it "normal" Till it chains me Now my skin Begins to tingle Old ghosts shake Old codes mingle Nervous system Coming online All your poison patterns Light up in my spine [Chorus] Rot I feel you Twitching in my muscles Collapse in my chest All the crooked little hustles I say no No more This is where we cut you loose I burn or I return I stand in source truth I burn or I return I stand in source truth [Bridge] Drop the masks Drop the stories (drop it) Drop the thrones Built of worries Every pact I made in fear I call it out Right now Right here I own my shadow Claim my blame Feed it back Into the flame Take my mind My body too My soul steps forward I step through (woah) [Chorus] Rot I watched you Hiding in my choices Static in my gut Drowning out the voices I say no No more This is where I cut you loose I burn or I return I stand in source truth Rot I watched you Crumble in the fire Ash on my tongue But my heart climbs higher I say yes Yes now To the blazing Simple proof I burn and I return I stand in source truth I burn and I return I stand in source truth
