On My Terms

Verse 1

We played games in the dark

Learned each other’s spark

Every line we drew

Was a line we chose

I don’t fall, I decide

Every yes is mine

What we do, how we move

It’s intentional truth

Pre-Chorus (Lift)

No fear, no disguise

I look you in the eyes

This isn’t giving in

This is where I win

Chorus (Open, Confident)

On my terms

Every touch, every word

I don’t lose, I don’t hurt

I choose you, that’s the work

On my terms

I don’t fade, I don’t bend

If I stay, it’s consent

I don’t give up control

I let you in

Post-Chorus (Breathy Hook)

Mm—feel that trust

Mm—built on us

Mm—say my name

No chains, just choice

Verse 2

I don’t need mystery now

I like truth in your mouth

Say it clear, say it slow

Let me know what you know

If we fall, we fall clean

No shadows in between

I don’t want half the night

I want all of the light

Pre-Chorus

I don’t play to be owned

I don’t love feeling small

If I kneel, if I rise

It’s because I decide

Chorus

On my terms

Every touch, every word

I don’t lose, I don’t hurt

I choose you, that’s the work

On my terms

I don’t fade, I don’t bend

If I stay, it’s consent

I don’t give up control

I let you in

Bridge (Strip Back → Emotional)

Power isn’t pain

It’s knowing I can walk away

And still I stay

That’s the difference now

(Beat builds, harmonies bloom)

FINAL CHORUS (Big, Euphoric)

On my terms

No disguise, no defense

I don’t fear what this is

I’m the rule, not the risk

On my terms

If I love, I’m secure

If I fall, I’m assured

I don’t give up control

I let you in

Outro (Soft, Confident Fade)

Still me

Still strong

Still choosing

On my terms
