"Now I can’t tell what’s me, what’s myth. It’s just the lens I built to live with."

Are you who you are… or who you had to become to feel safe?

This song is about the quiet illusions we build around ourselves. The identities we mistake for truth. The stories we repeat so often, they become reality.

I always thought I was “introverted.” But what if that label was just the safest option? What if my identity was a loop — self-reinforcing, self-made?
