Matryoshka（Global Poetry Rap Ver.）

【Intro】

A mask?

That’s too easy

You think one layer explains a person?

…nah

________________________________________

【Verse 1】

You call it a mask — like it’s something you wear

Like you could take it off and suddenly be “there”

But people don’t end at the face they present

It leaks in the way that they walk and they bend

In pauses, in posture, in how they avoid

In things they don’t say but can’t quite destroy

The body speaks first — before words even start

You’re reading the surface, I’m reading the parts

________________________________________

【Flow Shift】

No — listen

You’re not a mask

You’re a matryoshka

________________________________________

【Verse 2】

Layer in layer, it never just stops

You open one truth — another one drops

Kindness and strategy tangled as one

Fear underneath what you thought was “the core”

Which one is real?

All of them are

You can’t cut a person and call it a part

And say “this is truth” — like you finished the chart

That’s just a comfort, a need to define

A clean little answer to something not kind

________________________________________

【Verse 3】

We look at the face — it’s the fastest way

Quick estimation, no time to stay

So we made up “masks” to make sense of the mess

A story that lets us believe we can guess

But if it were true — if a mask was the end

You’d take it off once and finally transcend

But every time you peel something away

There’s more underneath — it just won’t stay

________________________________________

【Break】

You touched me?

No — you didn’t

You knew me?

No — you didn’t

________________________________________

【Verse 4】

Still…

I want to be known

Not all at once

Not fully exposed

Just one layer — honestly seen

If that’s real, then it already means

Everything else doesn’t have to be shown

A fragment can carry the weight of the whole

We’re unfinished beings — constantly in motion

Half-built identities, stitched by emotion

【Hook】

Matryoshka, matryoshka

Peel it back — still more to show

Matryoshka, matryoshka

Where you end — I’ll never know

Matryoshka, matryoshka

Every layer feels like truth

Matryoshka, matryoshka

Still I’m reaching out to you
