Lyrics

I've been quiet in the corner of the room
Learning every shadow, every move
You mistook my silence for a fold
But I was sharpening my spine, growing bold
Every "no" turned fuel in my chest
Every doubt learned where I'm strongest
I don't flinch when the pressure hits
I've been holding my breath for this
Hear the ground when it starts to shake
That's the sound of a line I won't let you break
They're not going to lick me, not this time
They can try and come get me, but I'm ready this time
Ready this time
I'm ready this time
Standing my ground, yeah, I'm ready this time
You talked like you knew how this would end
Wrote my story in permanent pen
But I learned how to tear the page
And I don't play nice when I'm cornered again
I've walked through the fire you warned me of
Turns out fear doesn't burn that much
Now I'm looking you dead in the eye
No disguise, no white flag tonight
Every step I took alone
Built a throne out of broken stones
They're not going to lick me, not this time
They can try and come get me, but I'm ready this time
Ready this time
No running, no hiding
Ready this time
I'm done surviving
If this is the moment you test my name
I won't bend, I won't break, I won't play your game
I've been small, I've been silent, I've paid my dues
Now the truth is loud and it looks like me and you
Say it once, say it twice, let the record spin
I don't lose when I choose where I'm standing in
They're not going to lick me, not this time
They can try and come get me, but I'm ready this time
Ready this time
Feel it in my spine
Say it out loud
I'm ready this time
