[Verse 1]
Been scrolling for a hint of home
Faces flicker, I still feel alone
Chasing doors that never open
’Til I turned around and held my own hand open
Staring in the mirror like, “who that?”
Old scars, new dreams, true facts
Every crooked piece I tried to hide
Got a seat at the table on my side (yeah)
[Chorus]
When I belong to myself
I don’t beg for a place at your table
I build it
When I belong to myself
Every flaw that I dragged turns faithful
I feel it
I accept my parts
I honor my road
I embrace my marks
Now my soul says “home”
When I belong to myself
I attract what can meet me there (meet me there)
[Verse 2]
Used to twist my tongue to fit in
Left my truth outside, that’s a sick sin
Now I talk my talk, accent and all
If they don’t vibe, they can let that call fall
Every little “too much” I was given
Turned fuel when I flipped that vision
I ain’t waiting for a stamp from the crowd
My spirit signs off, that’s allowed (yeah-yeah)
[Chorus]
When I belong to myself
I don’t beg for a place at your table
I build it
When I belong to myself
Every flaw that I dragged turns faithful
I feel it
I accept my parts
I honor my road
I embrace my marks
Now my soul says “home”
When I belong to myself
I attract what can meet me there (meet me there)
[Bridge]
I was lost in the noise and the timelines
Now I rest in my chest, that’s the highlight
If you see me glowing in the night air
It’s ’cause I met my own eyes, found light there (oh)
[Chorus]
When I belong to myself
I don’t beg for a place at your table
I build it
When I belong to myself
Every flaw that I dragged turns faithful
I feel it
I accept my parts
I honor my road
I embrace my marks
Now my soul says “home”
When I belong to myself
I attract what can meet me there (meet me there)
