Verse 1]
I’ve been holding on to ghosts that don’t want me back,
Crying to the mirror like it’s gonna talk back.
Every scar’s a story I keep reading again,
But pain’s not my friend — no, it’s not my friend.
Tried to find some peace in the wreckage of me,
But happiness don’t come for free.
It’s a choice I forget how to make,
Every time I let my heart break.
[Bridge]
Why’d I take advice from voices that hate my name?
Why’d I blame the world when I’m the one who stayed the same?
[Chorus]
Let go and let God, that’s what they say,
But I’ve been stuck on the hurt, can’t walk away.
Can’t get new ‘til I throw out the old,
Can’t find love if I don’t love my soul.
I’m not gonna let the cycle define me,
I’m gonna break it before it breaks my family.
[Verse 2]
Every prayer I thought was lost in the dark,
Maybe it’s a gift, not a missing spark.
Complaints just block my blessings out,
I’m done with the fear, done with the doubt.
I’ve hurt people ‘cause I’ve been hurt too,
But that’s not the person I wanna be, no, not the truth.
You can’t heal if you keep reopening scars,
You can’t move on if you’re parked where you are.
[bridge)
Why do I want forgiveness, but I never forgive?
How can I expect grace if I don’t give it to live?
[Chorus]
Let go and let God, that’s what they say,
But I’ve been stuck on the hurt, can’t walk away.
Can’t get new ‘til I throw out the old,
Can’t find love if I don’t love my soul.
I’m not gonna let the cycle define me,
I’m gonna break it before it breaks my family.
[Bridge]
Don’t judge if you’re not ready to be judged,
Don’t run to the pain like it’s something you trust.
It’s time to heal what they passed down,
Change the story, turn it around.
[Final Chorus]
Let go and let God, I’ll try today,
No more chasing the hurt, I’ll find my way.
Every heartbreak taught me something true,
The only thing I can control is what I choose.
I’m not gonna let the cycle define me,
I’ll break the chain — set my soul free.
