[Intro]
In the glow of screens, I breathe in slow
A hush of truth beneath the show
[Verse 1]
I trace the cracks in my own midnight face
Where honest edges dare to trace
Filters fade and I feel the ache
But something real begins to wake
[Pre-Chorus]
Tiny rebellions, one by one
I let my messy daylight shine till sun
[Chorus]
I won’t polish every scar to shine
I’ll wear the raw like it’s mine
If the world wants perfection, I’ll refuse
In my imperfect light, I choose true
[Verse 2]
The posted smiles feel loud and hollow
I whisper truth to the quiet sorrow
A spill, a laugh, a sigh that’s free
That imperfect moment is my decree
[Pre-Chorus]
Every flaw a doorway to me
Breaking the mask, I’m starting to be
[Chorus]
I won’t polish every scar to shine
I’ll wear the raw like it’s mine
If the world wants perfection, I’ll refuse
In my imperfect light, I choose true
[Bridge]
More real than the perfection I pretend to chase
I’m stepping off the pedestal, finding my place
[Chorus]
I won’t polish every scar to shine
I’ll wear the raw like it’s mine
If the world wants perfection, I’ll refuse
In my imperfect light, I choose true
[Outro]
Let the curated fade, reveal what’s real
In this quiet rebellion, I learn to heal
