[Intro]
Yeah, I'm standing tall now,
No shadows around me,
Just the light breaking through.
[Verse 1]
Used to wear a mask just to fit in,
Smiles all around, but where have you been?
Can’t hear your whispers, I’m finally free,
Cut the ties, now it’s all about me.
[Pre-Chorus]
Thought I needed your presence,
But it was just a lie,
Now I’m finding my essence,
With wings spread wide.
[Chorus]
I don’t need fake friends,
I'm better off without the trends.
Rising high, I’ll mend my heart,
You were never there from the start.
Say goodbye, I’ve got my fate,
Living real, I’ll celebrate.
[Verse 2]
Echoes of laughter that I once knew,
Faded away; guess it wasn’t true.
Now I’m embracing the strength within,
Building my life without your grin.
[Pre-Chorus]
Thought I needed your presence,
But it was just a mask,
Now I stand unapologetic,
I’m free at last!
[Chorus]
I don’t need fake friends,
I'm better off without the trends.
Rising high, I’ll mend my heart,
You were never there from the start.
Say goodbye, I’ve got my fate,
Living real, I’ll celebrate.
[Bridge]
Now the weight's lifted, I can breathe easy,
No more drama, no more sleazy.
Carving my path, feeling so alive,
Finding real souls where trust can thrive.
[Chorus]
I don’t need fake friends,
I'm better off without the trends.
Rising high, I’ll mend my heart,
You were never there from the start.
Say goodbye, I’ve got my fate,
Living real, I’ll celebrate.
[Outro]
So now I rise, unchained and bold,
In this new chapter, my story unfolds.
No more fake smiles or empty days,
I’ve found my truth, I’m here to stay.
