🔻 Song Insight

“World Worn With Gray” is a nu-metal/rap-rock anthem that rips the mask off a society drowning in lies, fake smiles, and broken promises. The track blends stomping rap verses, chant-heavy choruses, and raw crowd call-backs, channeling frustration into a cinematic wall of sound. It’s both a release and a rebellion — a declaration that the world’s toxicity won’t be hidden anymore. The song’s energy is defiant, aggressive, but also unifying, inviting listeners to shout back against the chaos.

🔻 Lyrics

Intro
Sirens screamin’ — city bleedin’
C’mon! You feel that? (Yeah!)

Chorus
It’s a fucked world (what!) — everyone’s fake (yeah!)
Every smile’s just another mistake (c’mon!)
Done with fakin’ (uh!) — done with the scene (yeah!)
Rip the mask off — show what you mean (what!)

Verse 1
Fake grins (uh!) / dead stares (yeah!)
Smoke thick (what!) / don’t care
Headlines twist / truth dismissed
Fuck that noise / same old shit

Want the real? (what!) — it’s all disguise
No real love in a world of lies
What’s lost? (uh!) — what’s gained? (yeah!)
Ain’t no middle ground these days

Chorus
It’s a fucked world (what!) — everyone’s fake (yeah!)
Every smile’s just another mistake (c’mon!)
Done with fakin’ (uh!) — done with the scene (yeah!)
Rip the mask off — show what you mean (what!)

Verse 2
Secrets deep / money talks
Fake love walks / leaves scars
I don’t fold (no!) — I don’t break (nah!)
Heart stone cold — still awake

People rot (what!) — fade away (yeah!)
Roaches crawl at the break of day
Dreams get sold / truth on lease
Ain’t no savin’ — no release

Chorus
It’s a fucked world (what!) — everyone’s fake (yeah!)
Every smile’s just another mistake (c’mon!)
Done with fakin’ (uh!) — done with the scene (yeah!)
Rip the mask off — show what you mean (what!)

Bridge
Hope’s a drug (uh!) — another lie (yeah!)
Prayers don’t work when the real ones die (c’mon!)
Dreams on pause / bombs overhead
No fairy tale — just death instead

Breakdown
Cancel posts — hashtags bleed
Money talks while the broke can’t feed
N.D.A.’s — secrets sold
Fuck your system — truth gets cold

Chorus – Final
It’s a fucked world (say what!) — everyone’s fake (yeah!)
Every smile’s just another mistake (c’mon!)
Done with fakin’ (uh!) — done with the scene (yeah!)
Rip the mask off — show what you mean (what!)

Outro
Let the mask go (yeah!)
Let the mask go (c’mon!)
Show what you mean…

🔻 Personal Reflection

This song was born out of frustration — not just personal betrayal, but the bigger picture of living in a world that feels manufactured. Everywhere I looked, from relationships to headlines, the truth felt twisted or sold off. Writing World Worn With Gray was my way of pushing back, of creating something people could scream with when the weight of it all gets too heavy. It’s not about hopelessness — it’s about pulling off the mask and refusing to play along.

🔻 4Me2BeFree

4Me2BeFree has always been about turning raw, unfiltered emotion into cinematic music that cuts deep and resonates wide. With World Worn With Gray, the project leans hard into nu-metal roots, bringing chant-driven rap-rock energy to a new generation. It’s a track built for volume, for catharsis, and for community — a reminder that music can transform pain into defiance, and defiance into unity.
