Verse 1
I learned silence from the shadows
Learned to smile while I bled
Everybody loves a survivor
Until she becomes what they fear instead
I still hear the voices whisper
Like smoke underneath my skin
You call it trauma in the daylight
At night it feels like strength again
Pre-Chorus
Every wound became a weapon
Every prayer turned into rage
I stopped searching for forgiveness
The moment survival became—
Chorus
Identity…
Now I wear it like a second skin
Identity…
Don’t know where the woman ends
You created this
Every scar, every memory
Now the fear has a face
And survival became identity
Verse 2
There’s a darkness in the mirror
She looks more honest than me
Pretty lies and perfect manners
Hide what pain created underneath
I was drowning in the silence
No one came to pull me out
So I built myself from vengeance
Now the monster speaks out loud
Pre-Chorus
Every wound became a weapon
Every touch became a war
I stopped begging to be rescued
When survival became—
Chorus
Identity…
Now I wear it like a second skin
Identity…
Don’t know where the woman ends
You created this
Every scar, every memory
Now the fear has a face
And survival became identity
Bridge
You call me dangerous
But you built the fire
You left me in the dark
And taught me desire
Now I move like a ghost
Cold hands, slow breath
Still carrying love
Inside all this death
Final Chorus (Extended)
Identity…
It’s living underneath my skin
Identity…
Don’t know where I end or begin
You created this
Every scar, every memory
Now the fear has a face
And survival became identity
Survival became identity…
Survival became identity…
