Songtexte

I'm not who I used to be, and I know that's okay
I've been carrying pain like it's part of my name
I'm strained like a badge, but it came with some chains
Smiling through it all, yeah, I played my role
But nobody ever asked what it did to my soul
I was taught, don't cry, keep it pushing, be tough
Even when I was breaking, I said, I'm good, I'm up
But behind closed doors, I was losing me
Trying to be who they needed instead of who I need
Now I'm looking in the mirror like, who is she
All these layers, all this pain, that ain't me
I'm a learning me
Everything they told me, I had to be
Breaking every chain that was placed on me
Now I'm choosing me, yeah, I'm finally free
I'm a learning me
No more shrinking just to keep the peace
No more silence when I need to speak
This the real me, yeah, this real me
I was loving people harder than I love myself
Pouring out my cup till there was nothing left
Calling it loyalty, calling it love
But it was me not knowing I was enough
I made excuses for the bare minimum
And all my intuition kept forgiving
But I see it clear, I ain't blind no more
I deserve a love I don't gotta beg for
Had to sit with my scars, let the truth come through
Everything I went through made a stronger of you
A learning me
Everything they told me, I had to be
Breaking every chain that was placed on me
Now I'm choosing me, yeah, I'm finally free
I'm a learning me
No more shrinking just to keep the peace
No more silence when I need to speak
This the real me, yeah, this really me
I forgive me for the times I stayed
For the love I gave that I should have saved
For abandoning myself just to feel OK
I forgive me, yeah, I'm healing today
I'm choosing softness, I'm choosing peace
I'm choosing the woman I'm meant to be
I'm not who I used to be
And I'm finally OK with that
Is that you
