Still Not Enough

Thought maybe this time, it'd hit different,

New face, new vibe, same distance.

Same script, different cast, same pain,

Me starin' at the sky in the pourin’ rain.

Every "I got you" turned to "I’m out,"

Every “ride or die” just filled me with doubt.

They say it’s not me — it’s them — I know,

But I’m the one who ends up alone, though.

Gave my best, gave my trust, gave my light,

And still ended up in the cold each night.

Stranded. Ghosted. Left in the dust.

Still carry love, but it’s covered in rust.

Thought maybe this would be different,

But it’s always the same — I’m wishin’.

Me never bein’ good enough,

Me left stranded, callin’ bluff.

Pulled in deep, then pushed away,

Built on hope, then watched it fade.

How much more can a heart take,

When every real smile turns out fake?

They see the smile, not the war inside,

See me laugh, not the tears I hide.

Keep sayin’ I’m strong, yeah, maybe it’s true,

But strength feels fake when no one pulls through.

They leave when it’s dark, come back in the light,

Only love me when the stars shine bright.

But I’m more than a phase, more than a vibe,

I’m the one who stayed when others just lied.

Tired of beggin’ to be seen, to be heard,

To be worth more than a passing word.

Tired of pouring into empty hands,

Tired of bein’ the one who always understands.

Thought maybe this would be different,

But it’s always the same — I’m wishin’.

Me never bein’ good enough,

Me left stranded, callin’ bluff.

Pulled in deep, then pushed away,

Built on hope, then watched it fade.

How much more can a heart take,

When every real smile turns out fake?

Maybe I’m better off alone,

Tired of callin’ broken people home.

Maybe I need to walk away,

From the hope that they might stay.

'Cause loving me shouldn’t be so hard,

I’m not a test, I’m not a guard.

Just wanted real — is that too much?

A soul to hold, a hand to trust...

I know I’m not perfect, I got flaws,

But I love deep, without pause.

And maybe one day, someone will see,

That I was never the problem — just too real to be.

Till then, I’ll keep walkin’ this road,

Carrying my heart like it’s all I own.

Still hopeful, though I’ve been torn apart,

Still got love in this cracked-up heart.

Thought maybe this would be different,

But it’s always the same — I’m wishin’.

Me never bein’ good enough,

Me left stranded, callin’ bluff.

But maybe next time, I walk away,

And stop lettin’ pain convince me to stay.

'Cause I might be broken, but I still shine,

And I’m done lettin’ others define mine.
