Lyrics
I came back wearing ash like a second skinWith a mouth full of names I won’t forgive againThe fire did not cleanse me, it taught me to seeEvery hand that held a knife while smiling at me
I found my old heart buried under the floorStill beating softly, still asking for moreI picked it up with shaking handsAnd swore no one would touch it again
This is not a prayerThis is not a cryThis is where the victimLearns how to survive
Vengeance oath, written in my scarsI don’t chase your shadow, I become the darkEvery wound remembers, every ghost lets goVengeance oath —You will reap what you sow
I swear to myselfI swear to my nameNever againNever the same
Don’t mistake my silence for a softer bladeI learned restraint in the grave I madeI don’t need your ruin to prove I’m freeBut I won’t let your poison live inside of me
So I bury the mercy that begged me to crawlHang your lies like trophies on the wallNot because I need them, not because I careBut to remember the shape of the snare
Swear the oath!Seal the wound!No more sleeping in the tomb
Break the bond!Cut the root!Turn the pain into proof
I will not returnI will not bendI will not bleedFor you again
I am the lineI am the flameI am the consequenceCalling your name
I swear to myselfI swear to my nameNever againNever the same
Vengeance oath, written in my scarsI don’t chase your shadow, I become the darkEvery wound remembers, every ghost lets goVengeance oath —You will reap what you sow
Vengeance oath, but I don’t kneel to hateI turn the blade around and carve my own fateIf justice has a heartbeat, let it beat through my bonesVengeance oath —I reclaim my throne
I do not run after ghosts
I do not beg the past to bleed
I place my hand over the fire
And swear myself free
