[Intro – Spoken, half-rapped with sax backdrop]
I used to sit there, lost in my own head…
Ask myself, “Why me?”
Why the fuck did you choose me to lie to?
To use…
To destroy.
What the hell did I do to deserve that?
I gave you love… and you gave me nothing but pain.
[Chorus – Melodic R\&B with horns & layered vocals]
Why me, why me, why’d you play me like a fool?
I gave you all, and you broke every rule
Now I see, now I see, it was never about me
You the one lost in your lies, so cold and empty
But no more, you don’t get no power
You don’t live rent-free in my mind, not another hour
I’m reclaimin’ my soul, I’m takin’ my shine
You a memory that’s rottin’ in the back of my mind
[Verse 1 – Rap with melodic ad-libs and subtle sax lines]
I tore myself apart, tryna figure what I did
Blamed myself like maybe I was just a broken kid
Maybe I ain’t enough, maybe I was the cause
But the truth hit hard — nah, it was never my flaws.
You a spineless manipulator, a fraud with a face
Drained my light while smilin’, left me in disgrace
I gave you love, gave you trust, gave you every damn piece
You returned it with silence, fake love, and deceit.
[Bridge – Short sung verse with heavy sax fill]
You don’t love, you just leech
Ain’t deep, you just weak
And I was too real for your petty little streak
But I rise, I rebuild, and I rewrite the tale
Now your memory locked, no key, no bail
[Chorus – Repeat, bigger harmonies + layered horn section]
Why me, why me, why’d you play me like a fool?
I gave you all, and you broke every rule
Now I see, now I see, it was never about me
You the one lost in your lies, so cold and empty
But no more, you don’t get no power
You don’t live rent-free in my mind, not another hour
I’m reclaimin’ my soul, I’m takin’ my shine
You a memory that’s rottin’ in the back of my mind
[Verse 2 – Rap with gritty vocal delivery]
You pick the good ones, the ones who give a damn
Then break ‘em down just to feel like a man
You drain ‘em dry, then vanish like smoke
Leavin’ scars, leavin’ hearts, leavin’ lives broke
But I ain’t your victim no more, I’m my own redeemer
You ain’t some complex spirit, just a bottom feeder
I see through your lies, the gaslight, the scheme
I woke the fuck up — now I’m livin’ my dream
[Outro – Smooth R\&B vocals + echoing sax]
You don’t get no more power…
You don’t get one more tear…
You a ghost in the rearview,
Gone, disappeared…
(Spoken ad-lib)
Yeah… I’m done wonderin’ why.
Now I ask myself — why stay, when I can rise?
