“Ego” is a dark, hypnotic dive into the emotional aftermath of a relationship ruled by manipulation and power plays. With pulsing beats and haunting vocals, the track captures the dizzying cycle of gaslighting, self-doubt, and craving validation from someone who weaponizes love. 

It’s both a confession and a reclamation—a sonic diary entry for anyone who's ever lost themselves trying to please someone else. As the tension builds, “Ego” becomes more than a breakup song—it’s a battle cry for taking your power back.

[Verse 1] 
Britney said it years ago
Baby, hit me one more time
Now I’m saying it alone
Baby, cross that fragile line

Stuck inside a world so dark
Haven’t felt a spark in years
Every shadow knows my name
Every echo sounds the same

⸻

[Pre-Chorus] 
There’s a darkness they romanticize
But it swallows every reason why
Not a single glimmer, not a spark
Just the weight of this unending dark

⸻

[Chorus] 
Told them keep a nightlight on
I get scared when I’m alone
When there’s no one else around
No light, not a single sound
Feels like the world forgot my name
And the night won’t play my game
There’s a certain darkness, I’ve fallen too far
Still I’m waiting, still searching for my stars

⸻

[Verse 2] 
All the stars they swore I’d see
Hide in skies too dark for me
Every prayer just disappears
Every dream fades year by year

They say patience, I say gone
I’ve been waiting for the dawn
But the silence pulls me deep
And it never lets me breathe

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a darkness they romanticize
But it swallows every reason why
Not a single glimmer, not a spark
Just the weight of this unending dark

⸻

[Chorus]
Told them keep a nightlight on
I get scared when I’m alone
When there’s no one else around
No light, not a single sound
Feels like the world forgot my name
And the night won’t play my game
There’s a certain darkness, I’ve fallen too far
Still I’m waiting, still searching for my stars

⸻

[Bridge] 
If the shadow’s meant to guide me
Why’s it leading me in blind?
If there’s beauty in the pain now
It’s the hardest thing to find

⸻

[Final Chorus] 
Told them keep a nightlight on
I get scared when I’m alone
When there’s no one else around
No light, not a single sound
Feels like the world forgot my name
And the night won’t play my game
There’s a certain darkness, I’ve fallen too far
Still I’m waiting, still searching for my stars
