Song Title: Born in Fire

I stood in the light you couldn’t stand to see
We could have built empires, written symphonies
But jealousy burns what love can’t hold
Your fear of my fire left you out in the cold

You fucked it up, you always will
Fuck off, you lost control
Drowning in the lies you sold
You wanted war, you got the fight

I’ll burn it all and step in the light
You picked, you prodded, you poked
You badgered, you screamed, you lied
You confused, you gaslit, you cheated

Now watch me rise while you stay defeated
Sweet smiles, soft words
A cage disguised as kindness
You twisted truths, blurred the lines

But I learned to see in the dark
Your game won’t work on me anymore
Fuck off, crawled back to your chains
You feed on control, but I broke the game

You wanted a puppet, you got a war
You’ll never own me anymore
I shouldn’t have survived, but I did
Raised in chaos, walked through the flames

Not broken, not bitter, just awake
My strength is quiet, but unstoppable
You are a reflection of everything I’m not
Tell me, how do you even live with yourself

You picked, you prodded, you poked
You badgered, you screamed, you lied
You confused, you gaslit, you cheated
Now watch me rise while you stay defeated

You wanted control, you lost it
I’m not afraid to walk alone
You’ll still be spinning stories while I build worlds
The light is mine, it always was

Goodbye
Could we hatch
And go fuck yourself
Goodbye

Could we hatch
And go fuck yourself
