Unmasked Deception of a Mothers Love

Why can’t you see what you have done to me

Your hurtful words humiliate, shame, frame and cause pain

Twist the perception to undermine, manipulate and cast blame

Now I’m trapped in a maze with a mind in a blaze,

Tryna climb from the weight of the lies that you made,

Every line that you sprayed hit precise when it landed,

Letting silence just rot while I’m fightin’ the damage.

You were drivin’ the wedge while disguisin’ the edge,

With a smile on your face as you tightened the threads,

Then you pull and you pry till I’m losin’ my breath,

Keep me pinned in the guilt while you rewrite the steps.

And I carried the load, every scar, every code,

Every part of my soul gettin’ crushed in your hold,

You would poison the well, then convince me I fell,

Like I built up the cage when you fashioned the hell.

But I’m breakin’ the pattern, I’m cuttin’ the chaos,

I am done with the daggers disguised as compassion,

You can talk, you can laugh, you can paint me as villain,

But the truth hit the ash and I rose from the killin’.

So look in my face when I say I am through,

I was drownin’ in the dark, tryna claw to the truth,

Now the shame that you gave, I’m removin’ the stain,

And the pain that you made won’t be makin’ me change.

Your reputation’s your religion, you’d destroy me just to save it,

Throw me under in a moment, just to keep your name untainted.

You would bury what I bled just to guard the role you painted,

Then pretend that you were helpless while the whole scene detonated.

All that gaslight, all that half-truth, all that pressure, all that spin,

Had me questionin’ my sanity while you played innocent again,

Every time I tried to speak, you would twist it with a grin,

Turn the wound into my weakness, make the blame wear my own skin.

You confused fear with devotion, called control a form of care,

Kept me circlin’ every sentence like the fault was always there,

Used distortion as a weapon, used perception like a snare,

Then you stood above the wreckage like you never put me there.

Now the mask is malfunctionin’, every crack is showin’ through,

Every version that you sold is dissolvin’ under truth,

I was loyal to the ruin, I was bleedin’ for the proof,

Now I’m cuttin’ every tie and puttin’ distance in the noose.

You don’t get to write the ending, you don’t get to claim my scars,

You don’t get to steal my voice and then act like you played no part,

I was carryin’ the coal while you were feedin’ on the dark,

Now I’m turnin’ all that pressure into fire, into art.

So go protect your little image, go parade your polished lies,

I know exactly what you did, I got nothin’ left to hide,

Truth don’t need your permission, it survives and multiplies,

You can run from what you’ve done, but you can’t outrun my eyes.

Why can’t you see what you have done to me

Cut me down and then you wondered why I bled so deep

Why can’t you see what you have done to me

Turned love into a weapon, then you put the blame on me

Why can’t you see what you have done to me

All your words were little wars underneath the peace

Why can’t you see what you have done to me

I was breaking, now I’m building what you’ll never reach

Now I’m done bein’ the target, done absorbent for your damage,

Done interpretin’ your chaos like it ever came from panic,

Nah, you knew it, you would use it, every move was cold, mechanic,

Tear me down to build your tower, then deny you ever planned it.

Back with a backbone, black smoke, cracked code,

Past ghosts, latch broke, mask showed, facts spoke,

That growth came slow, but I know what you don’t,

You can’t own what I am now, I took back what you stole.

This is where it switches, listen to the syllables split,

I was living in a prison where the villain played the victim,

Where the venom came gift-wrapped and the guilt came prewritten,

Where the truth got bent backward every time I got to spittin’.

Now I’m severin’ the script and the sickness that it stitched in,

No more centerin’ your version, no more worship of your image,

No more carryin’ the burden of a person with no limit,

I’m not livin’ in your prison, I’ma leave you with the

Now your kingdom is crumblin’, every crown’s counterfeit,

All the silence you demanded turns to thunder, never quit,

I’m resolved, every scar’s a revelation that you missed,

Took my purpose from the ruins, now it’s weaponized as grit.

Tangled web that you spun only trapped you in the thread,

Every verdict you delivered just reflects what you’ve said,

See your legacy of fiction foldin’ back in your head,

All the power that you flexed just dissolves when I’ve fled.

No apologies needed, you don’t own this evolution,

You ignited what you hated, kept me fightin’ for conclusion,

But I rewrote every reason, tore the script from your delusion,

Truth is breakin’ through the barricades, no space for restitution.

I don’t need another reason, I don’t need another scene,

Truth is quiet when it settles, and it finally lets me breathe,

You can keep the world you built from everything you took from me,

I’m just leavin’ with what’s left of me… and that’s enough for

peace.

Spoken

Things could've been different.. but you couldn't.
