[Intro]
We don’t break, we bend
Wiry roots in the sand
Growin’ wild where they said we can
Livin’ proof in this plastic land

[Verse 1]
Been a ghost in the signal, barefoot on the buzz
Talkin’ back to my demons like, “I wasn’t what I was”
Got a crack in my smile, got some blood in my rage
Wrote this feature in the margins of a fake blank page

Midnight motors in my chest go vroom
Been dancin’ in the fallout when dat bass go boom
No crown, no throne, justa gravel filled tone
Spit sick truth like a dial-up phone

I’m the static in your playlist, the foot that cracked cement
Survive this simulation with a vibe I never meant
Tin foil halo, white foam in my grin
My sins all sink, but my spirit still swims

[Pre-Chorus]
Flashin’ like lightning in an ocean rain
Even though it hurts, I don’t break the chain
Diggin’ through the noise for a sweeter sound
I was lost in the light, but I’m feelin’ found

[Chorus]
I don’t break, I just bloom in the wire
Born from dust and a circle of fire
Keep that bassline deep in my chest
When I fall, I fall with finesse

Don’t need saving, I’m already free
Friends don’t run, they dance with the beat
Alone in the silence, I still resume
Heart on loop in a cyclical bloom

[Verse 2]
Can’t kill what you can’t define
I’m the echo in the cloud, I’m the static spine
Put my heart on wax, now it heats like sun
Talk real slick but I move like one

Flashbacks flicker in a warehouse rave
Been wild since the dial-up days
Still runnin game on a payphone flow
And my dreams got teeth like a backroom show

Postcard life in a bitch parade
I bend when I break, still unafraid
Got sparks in my veins, I’m a loop on boom
With a glow so loud, it'll shake da room

[Bridge]
Pulse don’t lie…
When the beat drops out, I still testify
It’s not where you land, it’s how you climb
Built my wings from a glitch in time

[Final Chorus]
I don’t break, I just bloom in the wire
Born from dust and a circle of fire
Keep that bassline deep in my chest
When I fall, I fall with finesse

Don’t need saving, I’m already free
Friends don’t run, they dance with the beat
Alone in the silence, I still resume
Heart on loop in a cyclical bloom

Very little is ever just one thing...
