Monster Under the Surface Visualizer by Truedarkseed

This is the first song that I have ever wrote. I wrote the lyrics, but I used AI to sing the vocals and make the beat. I might sing it myself one day, we will see. I hope you like it. Tell your honest opinion in the comments. Enjoy

Lyrics:

"Monster Under the Surface"

Writen by Lawrence K. Norris a.k.a. Truedarkseed on January 6, 2026

[INTRO]
I don’t want trouble.
I want distance.

[BRIDGE]
I don’t rap bars, I jack jaws
Leave me be before I tap yours
All I do is work and mind my business
But messing with me is a bad decision

I’m a good man with a monster under the surface

[CHORUS]
I’m a good man with a monster under the surface
Wide awake, feelin’ everything I suppress with focus
I don’t cage it with chains, I cage it with purpose
But pressure don’t vanish, it’s just quiet and lurk’n

I chose peace, but peace still got teeth
So fall back — this warning is me bein’, meek

[VERSE 1]
I been here the whole time, tucked behind your breath
Countin’ every insult, every ounce of disrespect
You taught me how to wait, how to swallow every spark
How to smile in the light while I sharpen in the dark

I don’t rush, I don’t rage, I don’t need to be loud
I just listen when they test you, when they doubt
You call it growth, I call it reconnaissance
Every line they cross just strengthens my confidence

You tell yourself you’re better now, above it all
I agree — that’s why I’m leanin’ on the wall
I don’t want the wheel, I don’t want control
I just wanna remind you what happens if you let go

I been starvin’, gettin’ smarter, learnin’ mercy from you
But don’t confuse your discipline for somethin’ I won’t undo
I’m not evil — I’m efficient, I’m the edge you survive
I’m the reason they hesitate when you look ‘em in the eye

So keep the peace, keep the mask, keep the chains tight
I’ll be right here…
waitin’ for the right night

[CHORUS]
I’m a good man with a monster under the surface
Wide awake, feelin’ everything I suppress with focus
I don’t cage it with chains, I cage it with purpose
But pressure don’t vanish, it’s just quiet and lurk’n

I chose peace, but peace still got teeth
So fall back — this warning is me bein’, meek

[VERSE 2]
I don’t crave chaos, I was born from correction
Every time you chose silence, I learned direction
I watched you build walls outta service and sleep
I learned how to haunt without makin’ a peep

They think you’re alone when you turn the cheek
They don’t feel me shift when you clench your teeth
You call it composure, I call it loadin’
Every slight archived, every motive noted

I don’t hate them, I just read ‘em well
Patterns repeat when they test your shell
You taught me timing, you taught me pause
You taught me power don’t rush applause

So keep walkin’ straight, let ‘em underestimate
I’ll stay folded in patience, sharp at the gate
I don’t need daylight, I don’t need proof
I just need one more reason… you choose

[CHORUS]
Good man, monster under the surface
Wide awake, suppressin’ on purpose
No chains, I cage it with purpose
Pressure don’t fade, it’s just quiet and lurk’n

Chose peace, but it still got teeth
Fall back — this kindness ain’t weak

[VERSE 4]
We don’t want trouble, we want distance
We built this calm through discipline
We don’t speak twice, we don’t explain
We give grace once, then disengage

You see one man, but there’s two in sync
One learned peace, one remembers brink
Same heartbeat, same red line
Same understanding — don’t cross mine

This ain’t fear, this ain’t pride
It’s restraint standin’ side by side
So hear this now, and hear it clear
Respect the quiet — or live in fear

OUTRO [OUTRO]
…we warned you.
