I walk in the room and the talking just stops
I'm seeing the whispers and seeing the drops
They don't see a person they see a brand
The one with the power and the one with the hand
I built this name out of bricks and the bone
Now i'm the prisoner sitting on the throne
Every word that i say is a headline tomorrow
A beautiful victory a beautiful sorrow
You're a ghost in the city that you used to own
The seeds of the legend that you've finally sown
The name is a mountain the name is a cage
The final few lines on the final few page
I'm carrying the weight of the name i made
Watching the colors of the ordinary fade
I'm the villain they love and the hero they hate
Hero they hate
I've traded the quiet for a permanent roar
I'm not the person i was anymore
I'm finally at peace with the hand of my fate
Hand of my fate
They'll never understand what it took to be you
The things that you had and the things you had to do
The reputation is a fire you feed
The only solution to the ultimate need
You're the master of the story and the master of the pen
Own the name
Own the scar
This is exactly
Who we are
The end
I'm carrying the weight of the name i made
Watching the colors of the ordinary fade
I'm the villain they love and the hero they hate
Hero they hate
I've traded the quiet for a permanent roar
I'm not the person i was anymore
I'm finally at peace with the hand of my fate
Hand of my fate
The name remains
