Lyrics

I used to answer every call
Even when I knew I'd fall
Carried everybody's weight
Forgot my own while I sat and waited
Always putting me on hold
Just to keep somebody close
Empty hands, a tired soul
Loving everyone but never feeling whole
I don't feel guilty anymore
For closing doors that stole my peace
Sometimes the hardest kind of love
Is the one you give yourself
I'm selfishly choosing me
Putting my heart where it's supposed to be
If loving myself means I disappoint you
Then maybe that's what I have to do
I'm selfishly choosing me
Protecting every dream inside of me
No more apologizing for my peace
I'm finally setting my spirit free
Tonight, I'm selfishly choosing me
I stopped begging to be seen
Started living out my dreams
Every no became my strength
Every goodbye helped me breathe again
Now my mornings feel so light
No more crying every night
I'm not running after love
The right one will never ask me to give myself up
I deserve a quiet mind
A heart that's safe all of the time
I'm done confusing pain with loyalty
That's not love to me
I'm selfishly choosing me
Putting my heart where it's supposed to be
If loving myself means I disappoint you
Then maybe that's what I have to do
I'm selfishly choosing me
Protecting every dream inside of me
No more apologizing for my peace
I'm finally setting my spirit free
You called it selfish
I call it healing
You called it changing
I call it breathing
I'm not who I used to be
And that's exactly who I prayed I'd become
I'm selfishly choosing me
Walking away with dignity
The love I've searched for all this time
Was growing quietly inside
I'm selfishly choosing me
No fear, no shame, no apology
Every scar became the woman you now see
This is my season
This is my freedom
I'm selfishly choosing me
Mm
Choosing peace
Choosing joy
Choosing healing
Choosing me
