[Intro – spoken/soft tone]
Funny how the one you went through hell for
Turns out to be the reason you were there...
But closure didn’t come from you —
It came from finally loving myself enough to walk away.
[Verse 1]
I wish when I met you,
I would’ve kept it at “hello”
And kept on walkin’ right damn past you,
Now I know.
No offense, but f*ck you for real,
You used me for your own thrill,
Made me feel small, kept me wonderin’ still
Where I went wrong — when it was all you, chill.
So don’t tell me “be the bigger person,”
’Cause to me that means “accept the hurtin’.”
You treated love like a damn game,
Now I’m the fire you can’t tame.
[Pre-Chorus]
I kept your secrets, I held your pain,
For over ten years, I stayed in that lane.
Ruined my mind just to hold on longer,
But my spirit’s done — I’m comin’ back stronger.
[Chorus]
Closure came from me, not you,
Took my peace back, that’s the truth.
You were just a lesson, never proof,
That love should break me in two.
Closure came from me, not you,
Now I rise, I’m seein’ through.
You were just a chapter — I’m brand new,
Baby, closure came from me, not you.
[Verse 2]
You weren’t a waste of time,
Just a hard realization,
That I could do better,
Than livin’ in your manipulation.
Confused a life lesson for a soulmate,
Stayed too long in that heartbreak state,
But I’m done clingin’ to a mistake,
Just ’cause I spent years tryin’ to make it great.
Ten years ago, you had the girl everyone wanted,
Don’t forget, she’s still that woman — un-haunted.
Still the one they love, still the one they see,
And she finally remembered who she’s meant to be.
[Bridge – emotional build]
After everything, I don’t feel the same,
Even your name don’t sound the same.
I’ve survived things meant to break me down,
And you just added to the pain.
But I’m a warrior, I’m still breathin’,
Still here, still undefeated.
You can keep your ghosts and reasons —
I’m walkin’ out this season.
[Chorus – repeat with power]
Closure came from me, not you,
Took my peace back, that’s the truth.
You were just a lesson, never proof,
That love should break me in two.
Closure came from me, not you,
Now I rise, I’m seein’ through.
You were just a chapter — I’m brand new,
Yeah, closure came from me, not you.
[Outro – soft, fading]
I’ve tried enough, darling,
It’s time to let go…
And this time,
I’m lettin’ go
