I used to chase that main character high
Living for the edit, feeding the lie
Burnt through the seasons like they weren't mine
Just a ghost in the feed, wasting the time
But now the ego’s on a silent mode
I'm decoding the weight of the road I chose
Used to want the clout, now I want the peace
Staring at the mirror, I'm keeping the receipts

The noise is mid, the fever’s gone
I'm the only one left to rely on
The playground’s closed, the lights are dim
I'm locked in now, learning how to swim

The game is moving different tonight
The shadows are longer than the light
I looked at the chaos, the stress, the mess
How could I not turn this into a business?
From a glitch in the dark to a clean design
This is a brief history of mine
Yeah, a brief history of mine

They’ll call it a pivot, they’ll say I changed lanes
But they’re still playing checkers while I map the veins
I'm not an industry plant, I'm the root in the dirt
Calculating exactly what the struggle was worth
No more gatekeeping the pain I felt
I'm playing the hand that I actually dealt
The void isn’t empty, it’s just high stakes
It’s the silence you hear when the cycle breaks

Thirty years of almost, thirty years of soon
Now I'm the gravity, I'm not just the Moon
I'm zeroed in, no room for the fake
I’ve got too much legacy on the line to break
It was always going to end like this
A professional touch on a Judas kiss
Transforming the ache into a brand
Holding the world in a steady hand

The game is moving different tonight
The shadows are longer than the light
I looked at the chaos, the stress, the mess
How could I not turn this into a business?
From a glitch in the dark to a clean design
This is a brief history of mine

I'm done with the lore, I'm living the truth
The man finally settled the debt of the youth
A brief history
