They said this life was meant for me
Bright lights fall like prophecy
Every door opened at my feet
But every gift came with a fee
I felt the change before the fall
Whispers crawling through the walls
Every smile hiding teeth
Every promise underneath
Something calling from below
Something only I would know
Every step the air got cold
Every dream was bought and sold
This is not a blessing now
This is something I allow
This is something I allow
Every breath a heavy chain
Every win comes back with pain
Every win comes back with pain
I see shadows wear my face
Moving at a different pace
Moving at a different pace
Every mirror tells me lies
I remember who I was
Before the noise before because
Before the name became a brand
Before the curse touched my hands
Now the night dont let me rest
Every voice inside my chest
Telling me I went too far
Telling me this is who you are
This is the price of being seen
Living out somebody dream
Every crown is lined with thorns
Every king is slowly torn
I tried to run but stayed the same
Every road led to my name
Every prayer fell unheard
Every silence said the word
This is not the life I chose
This is something that arose
Every breath feels rehearsed
I dont know what came first
Was it me or was it this
Was it pain or was it bliss
All I know I cant reverse
Everything became the curse
