UNBECOME

The path to seek redemption is a road less traveled. Unbecome I built my throne on the bones of who I was Told myself the crown was worth the blood Every scar I carved in someone else's name Left a matching wound I learned to hide in shame Mirror shows a stranger wearing all my sins Armor made of choices I can't take back again I became the darkness so the dark would let me be Now I'm just a prisoner of the monster that I feed But somewhere underneath the wreckage and the rust Lives the boy who once believed in something more than us He's calling from the grave I dug with my own hands Begging me to drop the mask and finally take a stand I don't want to be the villain anymore Don't want to be the reason that you lock your doors Every broken body, every bitter war I'm tired of the weight of what I'm living for Let me unbecome what I've become Let me find redemption in the damage done I don't want to be the darkness anymore I want to be the light I was before They told me power was the only currency So I sold my compassion for immunity Built an empire on the ashes of my grace Now I see the devil and he's wearing my own face Every victim's eyes still haunting every dream I'm drowning in the silence of their silent screams The throne is cold, the crown has lost its shine Victory tastes like poison, glory is not mine I've conquered every kingdom, still I feel so small What's the point of winning when you've lost yourself to all? I don't want to be the villain anymore Don't want to be the shadow that you run from and ignore Every broken promise, every closing door I'm sick of being everything that I abhor Let me unbecome what I've become Let me bleed the venom out until it's done I don't want to be the weapon anymore I want to be the healer, not the war Can a monster learn to be a man again? Can the fire that destroyed become the warmth within? I've been the nightmare for so long I forgot that I was human all along They say redemption isn't meant for ones like me But I'd rather die while climbing than keep living on my knees I refuse to be the villain anymore I'm walking through the fire toward an open door Every chain is breaking, every wall will fall I'm answering the voice that never stopped its call Let me unbecome… and then become Something worthy of the light I'm running from I'll spend my remaining days repaying every score Not the villain anymore The boy beneath the monster… finally comes home. Maybe broken things… can learn to be made whole.
