Lyric

Out of My Own Name

Dovren Hales

They put a title on my skin

Sold me a life I never fit in

Smile for the room, nod for the game

I’m choking inside someone else’s name

Every role comes with a leash

Every praise takes a piece

I want out of my own name

Out of the face they made me claim

Burn the badge, break the frame

I am not what they call my name

They love the mask when it behaves

They clap while I become the cage

Good son, good man, good ghost in line

I spit that script out of my mouth tonight

Don’t dress my fear up as fate

Don’t call my prison a place

I want out of my own name

Out of the face they made me claim

Burn the badge, break the frame

I am not what they call my name

No more label

No more role

No more borrowed

Shape of soul

I’m out of my own name

Out of the shame they taught me to take

Cut the lights, kill the claim

I walk away without that name

No more label

No more role

Beneath the feet of modern people chased by notifications, expectations, watchful eyes, and the past, a suppressed voice begins to rise: "I want to be free"
