Own

Oh, I see you shining,

In that brand-new home,

But you don’t know the battles

That I’ve won alone.

You painted your walls,

With your golden dreams,

Thought you'd found your fairy tale,

Or so it seems.

But on the outside,

You put on that smile,

While I’ve been here growing,

Strength in every trial.

You think you’re the king on your throne,

But little do you know,

I’ve built my empire,

With the love that we sowed.

Good luck, good luck,

With your brand-new life,

I’ll be laughing last,

While you kiss that strife.

You can keep your possessions,

But I hold the stars,

My heart is my fortress,

While you battle your scars.

You think she's a trophy,

In the picture you post,

But I’ve got my kids,

That’s what matters most.

While you flex on your choices,

I’m busy being free,

Raising our little ones,

They look up to me.

You may wear that crown with your new love,

But remember what’s real,

You won’t rise above.

Good luck, good luck,

With your brand-new life,

I’ll be laughing last,

While you kiss that strife.

You can keep your possessions,

But I hold the stars,

My heart is my fortress,

While you battle your scars.

Oh, I’ll dance on the memories,

Leave them behind,

Joy in my laughter,

No bitterness in mind.

You played all your cards,

But they fell to the ground,

And I’ll rise from the ashes,

In this love, I’ve found.

Good luck, good luck,

With your brand-new life,

I’ll be laughing last,

While you kiss that strife.

You can keep your possessions,

But I hold the stars,

My heart is my fortress,

While you battle your scars.

So play your little games,

And flaunt what you can,

I’m richer in spirit,

In this life, I stand.

No need for your drama,

I’m dancing on air,

With my kids beside me,

We’re the perfect family on our own
