Yeah…
Funny how quiet it gets
When I stop explaining myself
I was reading between your silences
You were hiding truth in confidence
Every promise came with an exit plan
I was building homes, you were passing time
I saw the signs but I bit my tongue
Held my breath just to keep the peace
You called it love, I called it patience
Now I see what you did to me
I tried to hold on, but the walls kept shaking (ooh… yeah… yeah…)
Every word you said just left me breaking (mhm… mm…)
I saw the cracks, but I kept faking (shh… can’t stay…)
Now I’m awake… can’t go back, can’t go back (no… no…)
I learned to move on while I was breaking (breaking… yeah…)
Taught me how to be alone when I was shaking (shaking… ooh…)
Held me hostage, now I’m collecting debts (collecting… yeah…)
Half naked… cashin in on your bets
(in on your bets… mhm…)
Called it love, but it was vacant (vacant… yeah…)
Stayed too long, now the tables are adjacent (tables… ooh…)
I gave you fire, now watch me set it (set it… yeah…)
Half naked… cashin in on your bets (in on your bets… mhm…)
Now you’re calling like I still belong
Like I didn’t learn my worth alone
I don’t flinch when you say my name
That version of me don’t live here now
I don’t chase, I don’t explain
I don’t beg for a seat you wasted
You lost access, lost your place
This ain’t revenge, it’s elevation
I tried to hold on, but the walls kept shaking
Every word you said just left me breaking
I saw the cracks, but I kept faking
Now I’m awake… can’t go back, can’t go back
I kept giving pieces, now I’m collecting debts
Played your games, now I cash in on your bets
Thought I’d break, but I’m the one who sets
All the rules, yeah, I don’t forget
Pay up… yeah…
It’s your turn now…
Mhm… I don’t break… yeah…
I learned to move on while I was breaking
Taught me how to be alone when I was shaking
Held me hostage, now I’m collecting debts
Half naked… cashin in on your bets
Cashin in…
Yeah…
I don’t miss you
I miss who I was before I settled
And she’s back now
