Title: “I’M GOOD WITHOUT YOU”
Intro (spoken, low & tired)
Yeah…
I been holdin’ shit together with duct tape and prayers
Ain’t nobody seein’ the weight but me
I’m done beggin’ for love that cost me my peace
Fuck it…
⸻
Verse 1
I paid the bills, kept the lights on
Held you down when your friends gone
Put my pride on the shelf for you
Still you treat me like I’m optional, damn
I was cookin’ love from scratch
You was scrollin’ through attention
Every time I tried to talk
You flipped it like I’m the villain
I been sleepin’ with stress
Wakin’ up feelin’ broke
Not in money, in trust
Gave you all, now I’m ghost
You wanted a king but hated the crown
Wanted the love but not the work
I held us up while you tore me down
Now I’m numb, yeah it fuckin’ hurt
⸻
Pre-Hook (Gospel Choir – soft, haunting)
Hold on…
Let it go…
God gon’ carry what you can’t no more…
Hold on…
You’re not wrong…
Peace is worth more than beggin’ for love…
⸻
Hook (Male Lead + Choir – BIG)
I’m good without you (yeah)
I been broke with you, I’d rather be up alone
I gave you my soul, you wanted control
Now I’m walkin’ out stronger, yeah I’m grown
I’m good without you
I did everything, you did the most
If loving you cost me my sanity
Then baby I’m better off gone
Choir (under):
Walk away…
Choose your peace…
God don’t bless what drains you deep…
⸻
Verse 2
I was fightin’ demons while you nitpicked
Arguin’ ‘bout dumb shit, real shit ignored
I was tryna build us a future
You was worried who liked your post
You cried wolf so many times
I stopped hearin’ the pain
Every promise felt rehearsed
Every “sorry” felt the same
I ain’t your dad, I ain’t your bank
I ain’t your trauma sponge
I tried to love you through the storm
But I damn near drowned
Now my phone quiet, heart loud
But the silence feel clean
I lost you but I found myself
That’s a win, what it mean
⸻
Pre-Hook (Choir – stronger)
Let him go…
Lift your head…
You don’t gotta bleed for love again…
Let him go…
Choose your worth…
God restores what heartbreak hurts…
⸻
Hook (Repeat – harder 808s)
I’m good without you
I been tired, I been tried, I been true
You took my love like it owed you shit
Now I’m free and I’m done with you
I’m good without you
I held us up, you let it fall
If this what love supposed to feel like
I don’t want that shit at all
Choir (call & response):
Say goodbye! — Goodbye!
Choose yourself! — I choose me!
⸻
Bridge (Breakdown – half-time, emotional)
I stayed too long ‘cause I saw your pain
Ignored my own just to save your name
But love ain’t love if it kill your soul
And I been dyin’ tryna keep you whole
I forgive you…
But I’m done with you
That’s the truth…
⸻
Final Hook (Choir FULL, cinematic)
I’m good without you
I ain’t bitter, I’m healed
I lost us, but I found God
Found peace, found somethin’ real
I’m good without you
No more stress, no more chains
If walking away is selfish
Then I’ll wear that name
Choir (outro):
Walk free…
Let it end…
This is where your life begins…
⸻
Outro (spoken, calm
