Lyric

One step back, call it clarity

Clean hands, borrowed certainty

Never jumped, still teaching gravity

Fear rebranded as rationality

You wait for the fall, preload the line

Verdicts written ahead of time

Hindsight saints with borrowed shine

Selling "I knew" like it’s insight

Always right, from the safest side

So far away I can’t feel the fire

No weight held, no scars to show

Even my truth is starting to go

Say it slow, say it soft, say it light

I sound just like them when I try to be right

Zero stake, still I say your name

Scared I’m playing the same damn game

Scared I’m playing the same damn game

Scared I’m playing the same damn game

Effort mocked till it turns to gold

Process erased, only outcomes sold

Years collapsed to a highlight scroll

Human lives in a control role

You clip the end, subtract the cost

Rewrite time, ignore the loss

"Called it early", common boast

Easy crowns for the standing ghost

Always right, never in the fire

Never wrong, never rise, never tire

Hands untouched, voice refined

Cold, correct, perfectly timed

Sing it calm, sing it clear, sing it thin

Truth from afar never cuts within

Zero stake, dressed as grace

Pretty notes in an empty place

If silence is safer than being wrong

Why does it feel like I’m fading out

I learned to stand where nothing breaks

But nothing living grows that way

Always right

Never there

Watching myself

Disappear

Scared I’m playing the same damn game

Scared I’m playing the same damn game

Timelines erase

What remains

Is the silence

Of those who paid

Without a face
