Lyrics

I gave my all, left nothing behind
Every smile was stitched from the pieces of mine
I held the world, even when I was breaking
Told myself love means no hesitating
But I forgot how to breathe in my silence
Wore my heart thin in the name of kindness
They say, "Put the mask on yourself before you try"
And now I see why
Oxygen first — I can't pour from empty
I need light in my lungs, love within me
I won't apologize for choosing me today
It's not selfish, it's the only way
To rise, to shine, to heal what hurts
I'm learning to live — with oxygen first
Late nights, dishes in the sink
Dreams on hold, with no time to think
I lost my voice under everyone's noise
But now I'm fighting to find my own choice
I'm not broken, I'm just rediscovering
The girl I was before all the mothering
She's still here — and she's got wings
And she's done with shrinking
Oxygen first — I can't pour from empty
I need light in my lungs, love within me
I won't apologize for choosing me today
It's not selfish, it's the only way
To rise, to shine, to heal what hurts
I'm learning to live — with oxygen first
And when I'm stronger, I'll still give
But now I know how I want to live
Not just surviving — I want to breathe
Fully, deeply, unapologetically
Oxygen first — I deserve to feel whole
To take up space, to reclaim control
I won't burn out just to keep someone warm
I'll weather my own storm
So I rise, I bloom, I know my worth
I'm saving myself — with oxygen first
I'm saving myself
With oxygen first
