Lyrics
Steel heels on the marble floor
Gold chain dreams but they slam the door
Every smile's a sharpened knife
Every mirror cracks my light
Stitch my suit from broken glass
Lit my fire from backstage ash
Whispers say I don't belong
But I rewrote their battle song
I've been forged in quiet wars
Polished paint behind locked doors
Counted out by faceless kings
But I rise, my shadow sings
I'm breaking down the walls
They built too high, too tall
They said I'd fade away
My name's a storm they cannot tame
Silk-toned critics dress in grey
But I move like sun through steel cafรฉ
Blueprints drawn to cage my spark
But I moonwalk through their dark
They box me in with velvet tape
Called it safe, a gilded drape
But wild hearts don't beg or bend
I don't break, I transcend
I'm breaking down the walls
They built too high, too tall
They said I'd fade away
My name's a storm they cannot tame
Can you hear the glass shatter slow
Echoes of me in the radio glow
My future walks in heels of fire
Built from a nose aimed higher
I'm breaking down the walls
Too high, too tall
They said I'd fade away
My name's a storm they cannot tame
Say my name Say my name
They cannot tame
Break it down, break it down
I was the crack in their perfect glass
Now I'm the quake they can't surpass
