Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Used to wake up heavy
Heart like a hundred pounds
Coffee getting colder
Tears I never let out
Talking to my shadow
Like
“why you follow me?”
Every closed door
Every hard night
Was tryna set me free
[Chorus]
Everything I went through
Taught me how to love myself (yeah)
Every little heartbreak
Put my pain back on the shelf
Thought that I was broken
Turns out I was breaking through
Misery was the best thing that happened to me
‘Cause it brought me back to truth
[Verse 2]
I remember zero
Left in my checking account
Friends stopped calling
Phones stopped buzzing
Silence turned me around
Had to face that mirror
No one else to blame
Found a woman in the wreckage
Burning brighter than the shame
[Chorus]
Everything I went through
Taught me how to love myself
Every little breakdown
Became another step to health
Thought that I was drowning
Turns out I was learning to breathe
Misery was the best thing that happened to me
Now I’m finally feeling free
[Bridge]
I bless the nights I couldn’t sleep (couldn’t sleep)
The lonely streets
The messy sheets
Every “why me?” I used to scream
Turned to “thank you” in my dreams
I taste the sky in every breath
Dance on the edge of what is left
Life don’t scare me like before
I’m wide awake and wanting more (more, more)
[Chorus]
Everything I went through
Taught me how to love myself
Every twist and turn I took
Filled my empty heart with wealth
Thought that I was finished
Turns out I was born anew
Misery was the best thing that happened to me
‘Cause it taught me to love life too
[Outro]
Yeah
I’m learning more each day
Soft and strong in my own way
Every scar a little proof
I’m the best thing I’ve been through (ooh)
