[Title: When I Go Quiet] [Intro] Zero Yeah You get one chance One After that Don’t ask what happened [Verse 1] You walk up loud with your chest pumped out Big mouth running like you figured me out Talking that shit like it cuts real deep But you ain’t hurting me, you’re feeding the beast Every word you spit is gasoline Every little insult turns the room more mean You think I’m mad? Nah, I’m smiling inside Because the cage door opened and the monster got invited You wanted a show? You wanted the smoke? You wanted to poke what should never be woke? Well, congratulations, dumbass, here we go You just stepped in the ring with everything I don’t show [Pre-Chorus] They don’t worry when I’m loud They don’t worry when I scream They don’t worry when I’m laughing Making jokes out of steam But when I go quiet When my eyes go dead That’s when the warning signs Turn blood red [Chorus] When I go quiet It’s already too late The switch flipped off And the beast found fate When I go quiet Don’t pray, don’t plead You woke up the part of me That loves to bleed One chance Step back Wrong move Pay that When I go quiet That’s when hell talks back [Verse 2] I got anger stacked like bricks in my chest Years of pain that never got rest Every fake friend, every lie, every scar Every dumb little coward who pushed too far You ain’t special, you’re just next in line Another bad decision with a borrowed spine Talking like a king till the throne gets cracked Now you want mercy? Too late for that God don’t want it Devil won’t claim it That dark in me? Even hell can’t name it I don’t break easy, I don’t fold clean I keep coming back like a nightmare scene Even if I lose, I’m still laughing through pain Because the fight itself is burned in my veins [Pre-Chorus] They don’t worry when I’m loud They don’t worry when I scream They don’t worry when I’m laughing Making jokes out of steam But when I go quiet When my eyes go dead That’s when the warning signs Turn blood red [Chorus] When I go quiet It’s already too late The switch flipped off And the beast found fate When I go quiet Don’t pray, don’t plead You woke up the part of me That loves to bleed One chance Step back Wrong move Pay that When I go quiet That’s when hell talks back [Breakdown] Step off Back down Shut up Sit down Wrong mouth Wrong man Bad move Bad plan Play games Win pain Talk trash Meet rage Step off Back down Too late Lights out [Verse 3] This ain’t about feelings You ain’t in my head You didn’t hurt my heart You just painted it red I got a whole damn storm I’ve been holding inside And you brought a match to a dynamite ride Now the room feels cold and the air gets thin That’s not fear you feel That’s consequence walking in I don’t need fair I don’t need clean I don’t need rules When I’m lost in the machine You wanted death talk? You wanted dark? I was born with teeth And raised by sparks But the truth underneath all the rage and the grin Is I’m fighting every demon that’s living within [Final Chorus] When I go quiet It’s already too late The switch flipped off And the beast found fate When I go quiet Don’t pray, don’t plead You woke up the part of me That loves to bleed One chance Step back Wrong move Pay that When I go quiet That’s when hell talks back [Final Breakdown] One chance One breath One line One step One mouth One mistake One spark One break Play stupid games Win stupid prizes Now watch what wakes When the silence rises [Outro] Zero I’m loud till I’m not I laugh till I stop I warn till I don’t When I go quiet Step the fuck back
