Lyrics

I been standin' in the wreckage
Smell the smoke on my clothes
Had to watch it all burn
That I was holdin' too close
Had to learn silence loud
When the phones don't ring
When you cut ties for your soul
It don't come with a team
I don't miss who I was
I just miss bein' numb
'Cause growth hurt different
When you know where you from
I been sleepin' light
Heavy thoughts weighin' my chest
Makin' peace with the cost
Not the progress yet
Had to sit with my flaws
Couldn't run from the blame
Every lie I ignored
Left a scar on my name
I ain't angry no more
I ain't beggin' to stay
If it burned, it was meant
And that's the price that I paid
Now it's quiet where the chaos
Used to live in my head
All that's left is the truth
And all the things that I said
I ain't proud of the fire
But I needed the heat
'Cause you don't rise from the ashes
Until you learn how to grieve
Damn
Three years givin' love wasn't returned
Raised kids that wasn't mine
Still I showed up and learned
Played my role with no title
Held it down outta heart
But appreciation missin'
Disrespect from the start
Every effort fell short
Every flaw got enlarged
Gave grace where it hurt
Let it chip at my charge
She made me feel so small
Still I loved her the same
That's the danger of loyalty
And emotional pain
Can't elevate in a crowd
Had to step back alone
Sometimes growth feel colder
Than a half-empty home
When temptation can't reach you
It just dress up as love
Test your discipline quick
When you askin' for trust
My soul pure, intentions clean
Heart still intact
But my mind move reckless
When I'm starvin' for that
I been fightin' myself
Body pullin' me wrong
Spirit whisperin' patience
When them nights get long
Had to deny what I want
Just to honor what's real
'Cause desire ain't the same
When it's somethin' that heal
I ain't mad, I ain't bitter
I just learned from the flame
Some lessons only teach you
When you walk away changed
Let the past be a chapter
Not some ink on my page
Had to sit with the hurt
Just to learn how to leave
If it burned, let it burn
I don't curse it, I grieve
I don't rise from the ashes
Till I choose me… breathe
