[Intro — whispered, distorted]
I didn’t start the fire (Fuck YOU)
I just named the smoke (FUCK OFF)
[Verse 1]
You asked for truth, then turned away
When I delivered, you made me pay
I held the mirror to your face
And you shattered it without a trace
You blamed the voice, not what it said
You buried facts and crowned regret
I didn’t write the pain you feel
I just revealed what was real
[Verse 2]
I walked through silence, carried weight
Spoke the words you love to hate
I didn’t twist, I didn’t spin
I just let the light rush in
But truth’s a weapon when you’re blind
And I became the fault you find
You shot the signal, burned the wire
And called it justice, called it fire
[SOLO GLITCH]
[Chorus]
Messenger down, no one fucking cares (no one fucking cares )
Truth is heavy, full of stares
I didn’t choose this role I play (I didn’t choose this role I play )
But someone had to clear the gray
Messenger down, bleeding sound (Messenger down, bleeding sound)
You can’t kill what’s underground
I’ll rise again, but not for you (not for you)
I speak for those who see it through (who see it through)
[Verse 3]
You dressed your lies in velvet tones
And built your house on borrowed bones
I knocked, I warned, I told the tale
But you preferred the fairytale
I’m not your villain, not your sin
I’m just the voice that lives within
You can exile what I bring
But truth still echoes everything
[Bridge — spoken over glitchy synths]
You don’t want honesty
You want comfort
You don’t want clarity
You want control
But I’m not your silence
I’m the sound you can’t unhear
[Final Chorus]
Messenger down, no one fucking cares (no one fucking cares )
Truth is heavy, full of stares
I didn’t choose this role I play (I didn’t choose this role I play )
But someone had to clear the gray
Messenger down, bleeding sound (Messenger down, bleeding sound)
You can’t kill what’s underground
I’ll rise again, but not for you (not for you)
I speak for those who see it through (who see it through)
