If it costs my peace

Na na na na na

Ooooooo oooooo ooo oooo

I felt like where I was supposed to feel light

I felt heavy

Where I was supposed to feel peace

I felt chaotic

Where I was supposed to feel safe

And I had to be guarded

And where I was supposed to feel loved

I felt forgotten

I kept making excuses

For things I couldn't explain

Saying it didn't matter

When it was causing me pain

Telling myself it's fine, yeah it's okay

Hoping maybe one day things will change

How many signs do we ignore

Before we finally see?

How many times do we get lost

Forgetting our own needs?

Maybe I was surviving on too little

Too little effort

Too little love

Too little time

Too little trust

And I got so used to never getting enough, I forgot relationships are supposed to be equal.

That's when it hit me...

Peace doesn't beg

Peace doesn't leave you confused

Peace doesn't walk away from you

Peace doesn't use

If it costs my peace, it's costing too much

If I have to beg, then it isn't enough

I spent years trying to make sense of it all

Too many unanswered doors and missed calls

If it doesn't make you happy then its time to go,

If it's not a hell yeah then its a definite NO!

If I gotta question it, it probably ain't for me

If I gotta chase it, it probably ain't meant to be

I've spent too much time making excuses for what I see

The truth was right in front of me

The whole damn time

The whole damn time...

Now I see..

And thank you for helping me.

I kept telling myself it was temporary

Maybe I was just emotional

Maybe I was expecting too much

Maybe I needed to work on myself

Funny how we do that

Instead of questioning the situation, we question ourselves

I kept giving grace

Giving chances

And holding onto empty spaces

I needed to face

That i needed to let go

Of the people with two faces

If it doesn't make you happy then its time to go,

If it's not a hell yeah then its a definite NO!

If I gotta question it, it probably ain't for me

If I gotta chase it, it probably ain't meant to be

I've spent too much time making excuses for what I see

The truth was right in front of me

The whole damn time

The whole damn time...
