[Intro – slow / spoken]
Yeah…
Some scars don’t show on skin…
My ex said he loved me…
But love ain’t supposed to feel like this…
[Verse 1]
Met my ex when my heart was fragile and wide
He said “I’ll protect you,” pulled me to his side
Started with compliments, late night calls
Didn’t see the shadows hiding in his walls
Little comments turning into control
Slowly chipped away pieces of my soul
Said my friends were fake, said the world was wrong
Till I felt too weak just to stand strong
One night anger hit like thunder in the dark
Pain left echoes beating in my heart
Then he whispered “baby” like it fixed the scene
But love ain’t supposed to make you feel unseen
[Hook]
My ex said “baby” but the words felt cold
Broken promises wrapped in fool’s gold
I was crying in silence, losing my light
Trying to survive every single night
Now I’m speaking truth, I ain’t hiding the pain
I’m rebuilding myself, breaking every chain
Yeah the past still hurts but I found my way
I survived my ex — and I’m stronger today
[Verse 2]
Walking on eggshells, scared of his tone
Felt more alone when I wasn’t alone
Apologies falling like empty rain
Every “I’m sorry” just repeated the pain
Blamed myself when I should’ve seen clear
Love shouldn’t live inside constant fear
Flashbacks hit when the room goes quiet
Memories loud like an inner riot
But I found a mirror and saw my worth
Realized I deserved peace on this earth
Took my power back piece by piece
Turned my trauma into a fight for peace
[Hook]
My ex said “baby” but the words felt cold
Broken promises wrapped in fool’s gold
I was crying in silence, losing my light
Trying to survive every single night
Now I’m speaking truth, I ain’t hiding the pain
I’m rebuilding myself, breaking every chain
Yeah the past still hurts but I found my way
I survived my ex — and I’m stronger today
[Bridge – emotional / spoken]
If love makes you scared to breathe…
If “sorry” feels like a lie…
You’re not weak for walking away…
You’re strong for choosing to survive…
[Final Verse]
My ex just a chapter — not the end of my book
I reclaimed my voice that he once took
Every tear I cried turned into flame
Now I stand tall — and I say my name
No more silence, no more shame
No more living inside that pain
I’m healing slow but I’m healing real
Learning again how safe love feels
[Outro]
Yeah…
This my truth…
My voice…
My healing…
