[Verse 1] We were kids on the same cracked floor Same scars, same blood on the door You drew maps on your arm like war I drew wings in the dust, wanted more You said, "Power's the law, don’t you see?" I said, "If I win, I set them free" You chased crowns made of ash, burning clean I chased dreams you called weak, called naive [Pre-Chorus] You called it mercy when you broke their bones Said you’d fix the world by taking thrones I tried to pull you back from that abyss You swore my name, like I’m the one who did this [Chorus] You were wrong when you said the world needed control I just wanted to save you, brother, save your soul You wanted to conquer, I wanted peace I became the hero you never wanted to see I became the hero You never wanted to exist Standing in your shadow I was born to resist [Verse 2] You carved rules in stone with a bloody hand Turned our pain to a twisted plan You said fear is the only language they understand But I still hear our mother say, "Be kind when you can" I wear your emblem with the colors reversed You wear that hatred like a family curse Every city that you claim, every heart you twist Is another reason that I tighten my fist (yeah) [Pre-Chorus] You called it destiny to watch them fall Wrote your prophecy on every wall I broke your sigil, tore it from my wrist You made a villain out the one who just refused to assist [Chorus] You were wrong when you said the world needed control I just wanted to save you, brother, save your soul You wanted to conquer, I wanted peace I became the hero you never wanted to see I became the hero You never wanted to exist Standing in your shadow I was born to resist [Bridge] If I beat you, do I lose you for good? (for good) If I leave you, do I stain what was ours? (what was ours) I still see the kid in the mirror that you could’ve been But I’m drawing this line like a scar [Chorus] You were wrong when you said the world needed control I just wanted to save you, brother, save your soul You wanted to conquer, I wanted peace I became the hero you never wanted to see I became the hero You never wanted to exist Your perfect empire Ends right here, with this
