Not Up for Debate
Not Up for Debate is a minimal lyrical declaration of boundary and authority. The song does not argue, persuade, or invite discussion. It names what is true and allows that truth to stand without justification.
Delivered with restraint and intentional pauses, the piece treats language as policy rather than emotion. Each line functions as a closing statement — not a challenge, not a defense, not a request for understanding.
This song is for moments when explanation has ended, when lived experience no longer needs to be validated by consensus, and when consent is withdrawn clearly and finally.
This is not a discussion.
This stands.
