가사

I notice how you always start with
I'm just being honest
Like it's a shield, like it cleans the blood
Off what you're about to say
You frame it as concern, but you're aiming for the bruise
You don't offer help, you offer x‑rays and a smirk
You tell me I'm finally looking healthy
Which is just your polite way of saying I looked wrong before
You pat me on the back like you're checking for a spine
You look me in the eye the way a landlord looks at damage
I see the math in your gaze
Profit and loss, my flaws as your small talk
You call it just an opinion
I call it recreational cruelty
You dress your digs up as feedback
You staple a smile to the front of every insult
You want the credit for being kind
While you're busy dismantling the room
AH!
You say you've really grown, you're not as sensitive now
You miss the version of me that bled on cue
You liked me better when I took it as a joke
Now I just file your words under data
You call me confident, for someone like
That little tail on the sentence is where the poison sits
I don't argue with you anymore
I just let the silence write your name on the wall
I'm not hurt, I'm observant
I'm not offended, I'm informed
You're not clever, you're transparent
You're not honest, you're bored
You keep pretending this is how adults talk
As if detachment equals depth
But there's nothing profound about
Poking at people just to see where they flinch
AH!
Here's the part you won't like
I don't need you to be part of me
I don't need your lukewarm stamp of approval
Pressed into the corner of my life, keep your almost
Your edited praise, your half-lit applause
If you have to step on my neck to feel tall
You're not tall, you're just standing on someone
I won't fix myself to fit your wording
I won't shrink so you can call it balanced
I see what you're doing, I'm just not playing
You're not the judge, you're just the noise
Say whatever you want
Dress it up however you need
I'm done decoding malice
Ending in cursive politeness
