Lyrics

[Verse 1] I gave ’em time, they mistook that for weakness Let ’em close, they betrayed for convenience Told the truth, they rewrote it in pieces I stayed real while they played with the sequence I don’t beg, I observe and remember Left my heart in the ash of December They smiled while the cold crept in Now im built for the storm don’t let threats in They moved grimy — I moved out Took my soul back, left no route They ain’t ghost me — I exhaled Now my name hit hard in a dead-quiet drought ⸻ [Hook – Half-Spoken / Melodic Flow] I don’t want revenge, I want quiet that cuts The kind that rings out when the fake ones hush They played with fire, I became what’s touched Now I burn with a calm that don’t need much I don’t want closure, I want my peace Not the sweet kind — the kind with teeth I gave ’em light, they swallowed the beam So I blacked out love and I sleep in the deep ⸻ [Verse 2] I seen real turn plastic in minutes I seen “forever” fold when it thinned in I seen truth get sold for image Now I move like a wound with a crimson finish No calls, no texts, just clarity They took warmth, now I walk with disparity I ain’t cry — I distilled that pain Into razor-lined lines and a cold disparity They ain’t break me — they revealed the frame Gave them gold, they just played with the chain Now I move like smoke through shame Can’t touch what’s gone and don’t bleed the same ⸻ [Hook – Repeated, with Intensity] I don’t want revenge, I want quiet that cuts The kind that rings out when the fake ones hush They played with fire, I became what’s touched Now I burn with a calm that don’t need much I don’t want closure, I want my peace Not the sweet kind — the kind with teeth I gave ’em light, they swallowed the beam So I blacked out love and I sleep in the deep
