I Don’t Care Anymore

Verse 1

I used to carry every word, every glance like it was gold

Tried to fit in every box, but none of them could hold

The weight of being quiet just to make them feel okay

I gave and gave, and lost myself along the way

Pre-Chorus

I’m done explaining who I am

No more shrinking to fit in

You never tried to understand

So I won’t let you pull me in

Chorus

I don’t care anymore

Say what you want, I won’t listen

Your words don’t live under my skin

I’ve found my voice, not asking for permission

I stood alone, now I stand tall

Not afraid to take the fall

I don’t care anymore

Verse 2

I gave my heart to those who never asked to hold it

Fought for friends who never noticed I was broken

Kept showing up, kept holding on

’Til I realized I was fighting all alone

Pre-Chorus

I won’t chase the ones who walked away

If I’m too much, then don’t you stay

Chorus

I don’t care anymore

Say what you want, I won’t listen

Your words don’t live under my skin

I’ve found my voice, not asking for permission

I stood alone, now I stand tall

Not afraid to take the fall

I don’t care anymore

Bridge

It’s okay if I fall

It’s okay if I cry

I’m still here, still alive

And this pain won’t define

Who I’m meant to be

I’m finally breaking free

Final Chorus

I don’t care anymore

But not because I’ve turned to stone

I’ve just learned to stand alone

To build my peace, to find my own

I’m not bitter, just awake

No more bending till I break

I don’t care what they say

I’ve got my truth, I’ll walk my way

Yeah, I don’t care anymore

’Cause now I care for me
