[Verse 1]
You came for my name
like it was free to take
Spit in my face
then expected me to break
I kept my spine
while you made your little storm
I wore your cold
like a coat that kept me warm
(Kept me warm)
I learned the shape
of my own heartbeat
I found my hands
when you tried to pin me
[Pre-Chorus]
If you saw me fall
you missed the real thing
I was gathering fire
in the wreck you made of me
[Chorus]
If it wasn't for you
I would still be half-made
If it wasn't for you
I might have stayed afraid
I'm grateful for it all
I'm grateful for it all
I became one with myself
I became one with myself
(One with myself)
(One with myself)
[Verse 2]
Mean little words
left marks in the air
But I took the dirt
and planted roots there
Now my eyes don't flinch
when your shadow calls
I know my own worth
I don't need your walls
You taught me loss
in the ugliest way
Then I turned that pain
into a brighter day
(brighter day)
Not by luck
not by grace alone
I built my peace
from the bones you threw
[Pre-Chorus]
If you tried to shame me
you only showed me
what love is not
and what I would never be
[Chorus]
If it wasn't for you
I would still be half-made
If it wasn't for you
I might have stayed afraid
I'm grateful for it all
I'm grateful for it all
I became one with myself
I became one with myself
(One with myself)
(One with myself)
[Bridge]
I know what love means now
it don't come dressed in spite
It don't need to wound me
to prove it's right
I hold my own heart
I don't hand it away
I met myself in the ashes
and I chose to stay
[Final Chorus]
If it wasn't for you
I would still be half-made
If it wasn't for you
I might have stayed afraid
I'm grateful for it all
I'm grateful for it all
I became one with myself
I became one with myself
(One with myself)
(One with myself)
I truly meant
what love meant to me
