Letting Go

I was holding on so tight I couldn’t see the pain
Squeezing every wound, hoping I would gain
But every time I wrapped around
The cut went deeper in the ground

Thought I was fighting, thought I was strong
But I was standing still all along

It’s hard to see when you’re in the fight
But holding you doesn’t make it right
Every breath I take just proves
It’s time to choose

I’m letting go of what’s cutting me down
I won’t be the one still bleeding on the ground
You took my strength — I’m taking it back
No more gripping the blade like that

I’m letting go, I’m letting go
No more holding what hurts me so

I thought staying proved I was strong
But the longer I stayed, the more it felt wrong
You were the saw I wouldn’t release
Now I see letting go brings peace

I thought revenge would ease the sting
But it only tightened everything
The tighter I held, the less I learned
Now I rise from what once burned

Clarity comes when you unclench your hands
Freedom begins when you understand

(bigger, lift)
I’m letting go of what’s cutting me down
No more silence, no more drowning sound
You drained my light — I found it again
This is where my healing begins

I’m letting go, I’m moving on
No more hurting, no more holding on

(confident, calm)
I’m safe. I’m strong.
I’m finally gone.
