Second Skin

Intro

(Skin for skin, I paid it off)

(No more ghost, watch me transform)

Verse 1

Old name burning in the rearview glass

Every step I take, I'm shedding the past

Bones remember but the body don't lie

Cracked the chrysalis wide open under this sky

Chorus

This is the second skin, tighter than the first

Built from the fire, baptized by the thirst

Feared in the daylight, revered in the dark

I was a whisper — now I'm a spark

Verse 2

Used to walk quiet, used to walk small

Now the pavement shakes when I answer the call

Left the old me folded up like a coat

Stitched a new heartbeat straight into my throat

Bridge

I don't recognize the face in the flame

But I answer anyway when the city screams my name

Chorus

This is the second skin, tighter than the first

Built from the fire, baptized by the thirst

Feared in the daylight, revered in the dark

I was a whisper — now I'm a spark

Outro

Second skin, second skin, watch it glow

I was never yours to hold

I was never yours to know
