[Verse 1]
Kept my voice on silent
Bit my tongue till it bled
Built my house on your approval
Now I’m burning that shed
Threw my heart at a closed door
Watched it bounce off the frame
You kept changing all the rules
Then you blamed me for the game
[Chorus]
I’m done begging to be seen
Done shrinking just to fit your scene
If you don’t like who I’ve become
Turn around
I’m already gone
I’m done living for your dream
Cut the strings
I’m breaking clean
This life
This fight
This scream
I’m living my life for me
[Verse 2]
You mistook my kindness
For an endless supply
Fed yourself on every promise
Left my spirit dry
Now my scars feel like armor
Every bruise made me steel
You can keep your empty throne
I’ll keep learning how to heal
[Chorus]
I’m done begging to be seen
Done shrinking just to fit your scene
If you don’t like who I’ve become
Turn around
I’m already gone
I’m done living for your dream
Cut the strings
I’m breaking clean
This life
This fight
This scream
I’m living my life for me
[Bridge]
No more “please”
No more “stay”
I won’t bleed
To fade away
Raise that glass
To who I’ll be (hey!)
If you can’t stand it
Don’t stand near me
[Chorus]
I’m done begging to be seen
Done shrinking just to fit your scene
If you don’t like who I’ve become
Turn around
I’m already gone
I’m done living for your dream
Cut the strings
I’m breaking clean
This life
This fight
This scream
I’m living my life for me
[Outro]
I’m done begging to be seen
(Yeah, I’m finally breaking free)
This time
This life
This scream
I’m living my life for me
