Scars like constellations
Map the wars I never chose to fight
They call it luck—I call it theft
Stealing light from the jaws of night
Knuckles cracked on concrete hope
Every shadow hides a blade unnamed
Ain't no prince in this fairy tale
Just a boy made of break and brave
I bend
But don't shatter
Turn poison to glitter
They said: Know your place
So I built a throne from the wreckage
I am diamond dust
Born from the pressure they gave me
Every cut just polished the blade
Now watch how the light obeys me!
I am diamond dust
Cold as the stars but I burn
You tried to bury my name
Now the whole sky sings it in turn!
Pray for angels? I got ghosts
Whispering smoke through my ribcage
Fingers numb from holding on
To dreams too sharp for velvet cages
Laughing blood from bitten lips
They love the spark ‘til it blinds their eyes
You wanted ash? Here’s wildfire
Dancing in the ruins of their lies
I was the rock
They threw at their windows
Now I'm the storm
And the glass is my armor
I am diamond dust
A million fractures shining
You thought pain would dull my glow?
It just defined me!
I am diamond dust
The echo after thunder
Go on—strike me again
I’ll just spark louder!
They’ll forget the hands that hurt
But the light?
Oh, the light remembers everything
