[04:12.00]Ink don’t lie
[04:12.00]Skin remembers
[04:12.00]I grew up learning how to bleed quiet
[04:12.00]Knuckles split on alley truth
[04:12.00]One hand shaking, one hand steady
[04:12.00]Both of them belonged to you
[04:12.00]Streetlight hums like a warning sign
[04:12.00]Every step says “choose a side”
[04:12.00]But I learned young in the dirt and smoke
[04:12.00]You don’t live clean, you just survive
[04:12.00]They said cut one loose
[04:12.00]Leave the other tame
[04:12.00]But a tiger chained
[04:12.00]Is a tiger dead
[04:12.00]Twin tiger tattoo on my skin
[04:12.00]Every scar knows where I’ve been
[04:12.00]No god carved this into me
[04:12.00]I chose the pain that won’t leave
[04:12.00]Twin tiger tattoo, burned in truth
[04:12.00]Two hearts biting through one youth
[04:12.00]If I fall, I fall marked and loud
[04:12.00]I die as what I carved out
[04:12.00]One wants blood, one wants control
[04:12.00]Both still breathing in my chest
[04:12.00]I don’t pray, I don’t bargain
[04:12.00]I don’t ask which one’s best
[04:12.00]Mirror cracked but it tells it straight
[04:12.00]Both those eyes are mine to face
[04:12.00]I don’t wash the stains away
[04:12.00]I wear the nights I couldn’t erase
[04:12.00]You call it sin
[04:12.00]I call it proof
[04:12.00]I’m still here
[04:12.00]With both my teeth
[04:12.00]Twin tiger tattoo on my skin
[04:12.00]Every scar knows where I’ve been
[04:12.00]No crown, no cross, no alibi
[04:12.00]Just ink that learned how not to die
[04:12.00]Twin tiger tattoo, bite and bone
[04:12.00]I never ran, I never moaned
[04:12.00]If the end comes crashing through
[04:12.00]It finds me carved and standing true
[04:12.00]Needle hum in my head tonight
[04:12.00]Buzzing like an engine stuck on red
[04:12.00]Pain ain’t holy, pain ain’t clean
[04:12.00]But it taught me how to stand unled
[04:12.00]Twin tiger tattoo on my skin
[04:12.00]Not a prayer, not forgiven
[04:12.00]You see ink, I see proof
[04:12.00]Of every night I lived this truth
[04:12.00]Twin tiger tattoo — no release
[04:12.00]I walk with both, I rest in none
[04:12.00]Two beasts breathing under my ribs
[04:12.00]Still running when the others’re done
[04:12.00]Not chosen by fate
[04:12.00]Chosen by me
