Not Broken (Breaking Open)

[Trap soul] 

[Verse 1]

I been quiet, but the silence loud
Heart heavy, head low, still walkin’ proud
Told her my truth, thought she’d hold it close
But she backed off — now I feel like a ghost
Every time I open up, I bleed a little
Give ’em real and they retreat a little
Said I love too hard — that’s my flaw
But I don’t know another way at all

[Pre-Hook]

I ain’t tryna be the victim, I just speak what’s real
Pain been my roommate, truth been my meal
She said I got trauma, said I need help
But where was help when I was raisin’ myself?

[Hook]

I’m not broken, I’m breaking open
Let the flood out — let the hurt be spoken
Tears ain’t weakness, they the proof I’m feelin’
Scars on my soul but I’m still healin’
They run when I’m raw, stay when I’m numb
But I can’t fake peace just to keep someone
Yeah I’m not broken, I’m breaking open
Yeah I’m not broken, I’m breaking open

[Verse 2]

Told her I feel unloved and left behind
Told her I got voices in the back of my mind
Told her ‘bout Briana, the past I survived
She gave me a smile, then hit me with the “thumbs” sign
Felt like a punch, no reply, just a pause
Like my truth too loud, like my hurt got flaws
But this ain’t drama, it’s my core unravelin’
All my life been good at maskin’ damage in

[Bridge]

I don’t want pity, I want peace
I just want someone who won’t leave
When the room get tense, when the tone ain’t sweet
Still hold me close, not retreat from me

⸻

[Final Hook]

I’m not broken, I’m breaking open
Let the pain talk — yeah, no more hopin’
For love that’s soft when it’s easy to show
But cold when the truth starts to overflow
So I cry if I need, cuss if I must
‘Cause healing don’t happen without a little dust
Yeah I’m not broken, I’m breaking open
Not destroyed, just fully awoken
