Verse 1
I used to shrink just to fit your mood
Say I was fine when I wasn’t good
Gave you my time, gave you my light
Stayed too long in your “maybe right”
Every promise sounded like gold
Turns out it was heavy and cold
I lost myself trying to stay
In a love that was never my way
Pre-Chorus
But I woke up, something changed inside
No more tears I have to hide
I see it clear, I see it true
I’m better off without you
Chorus
I’m finally free, I’m finally me
No more chains, I can breathe
You had your chance, you let me go
Now I’m shining on my own
It took some pain, it took some time
But I got back this heart of mine
And I don’t look back, I don’t stay there
I’m finally free in the open air
Verse 2
Funny how the sky looks bright
After walking out of the night
Friends say “girl, you look alive”
Like I just learned how to survive
And yeah, I did, but I’m okay
Lost that weight the same day you stayed
What you took, I won back twice
Turned my scars into my life
Pre-Chorus
Now I laugh, I don’t pretend
That I needed you to mend
I found strength I didn’t know
And I’m never letting go
Chorus
I’m finally free, I’m finally me
No more chains, I can breathe
You had your chance, you let me go
Now I’m shining on my own
It took some pain, it took some time
But I got back this heart of mine
And I don’t look back, I don’t stay there
I’m finally free in the open air
Bridge
And I don’t hate you, I just don’t care
You’re just a chapter that I don’t wear
I close the book, I turn the page
I’m done with your little stage
Final Chorus (bigger, upbeat)
I’m finally free, I’m finally me
Look at me now, I believe
No more chains, I can breathe
This life is mine, I’m finally free
It took some pain, it took some time
But I got back this heart of mine
And I don’t look back, I don’t stay there
I’m finally free, yeah I’m finally freep
