MUSIC FOR SALE

Verse 1

I walked in with my heart on fire,
turned your chaos into something higher.
You were smiling while I bled,
now I see the game you played instead.

I built the dream, you took the praise,
stood in my sun, soaked up my rays.
But truth has teeth, and now you see,
you can’t bury what was meant to be.

Pre-Chorus

I gave too much, ignored the signs,
you drew the map, I crossed the lines.
But losing me? That was your slip,
now I’ve got thunder in my grip.

Chorus

I’ve heard my name all over town,
does that drive you crazy?
When you hear it praised, what do you think,
does it sting… just a little maybe?

When they say I’m doing fine without you,
does it burn like the truth?
I found my fire, I found my place,
while you’re still chasing your visual dream.

Verse 2

You dressed it up like “tough love” rules,
but your fear just made you act a fool.
You traded real for something cheap,
now I rise while you lose sleep.

I kept the peace, you played pretend,
called it care, but broke me in the end.
Now I’m where they see all the life
you tried to leash, you tried to hide.

Pre-Chorus

You wrote me off, thought I’d fall apart,
but I don’t break… I restart.
Now I’m the one they talk about,
I’m the name they chant out loud.

Chorus

I’ve heard my name all over town,
does that drive you crazy?
When you hear it praised, what do you think,
does it sting… just a little maybe?

When they say I’m doing fine without you,
does it burn like the truth?
I found my fire, I found my place,
while you’re still chasing your visual dream.

Bridge

I don’t hate you… I just healed,
built my life on something real.
And every win they see in me
is proof you lost what you couldn’t be.

I grew in all the space you pruned,
I lit up every darkened room.
Now the whole world finally sees
what you tried to smother out of me.

Final Chorus (Bigger)

I’ve heard my name all over town,
and I’m not sorry, baby.
When you hear it praised, what do you think,
does it sting… just a little maybe?

You let me go, thought I would fade,
but I was never yours to save.
Now I’m the sound behind their cheers…
and you’re the echo of the years.
