Break Like Me

Verse 1
You wear your pain like a fashion line
I bled mine out in overtime
You scream for help like it’s a show
I buried mine six feet below

Pre-Chorus
Don’t play the victim, don’t fake the fall
You ain’t broken — you ain’t been through it all

Chorus
Try to break like me — come on, I dare you
Tear your soul apart — see who stares through
You don’t get to cry, don’t get to bleed
Until you’ve shattered and crawled like me
Try to break like me — go ahead, I’ll wait
You’ll find your pride beneath the hate

Verse 2
You count your cracks like battle stats
I wore mine silent, just like that
You want the scars but not the weight
You want the fire without the fate

(Pre-Chorus → Chorus)

Bridge (instrumental drops out, vocals only)
You want this rage?
Then earn these chains.
You want my pain?
Then take my name.

Final Chorus (double vocals, harmonized)
Try to break like me — burn out your sky
Beg for mercy with a lie
You’ll never know what I’ve seen
Until you break —
Break like me
