Better without you

(Verse 1)

You never called, never tried, never cared to see,

The kid you left behind, the stranger I’d be.

I begged for your love, but you turned away,

Now I’m stronger for every empty word you didn’t say.

(Pre-Chorus)

You think I’m broken? That’s your mistake.

Your absence was the gift that taught me what’s fake.

So keep your distance, keep your pride,

I’ve built a life you can’t step inside.

(Chorus)

Fk you, for the lies and the pain,

For the years I wasted crying in vain.

I’m autistic, yeah, and I’m proud to be,

‘Cause I’m thriving in ways you’ll never see.

Fk you, for thinking I’d need

A father who only knows how to leave.

I’m better, better without you.

(Verse 2)

You’re just a shadow, a ghost in my past,

A lesson in what love isn’t, and thank God for that.

Your sorry ass can keep your hollow regrets,

I’ve found my worth, and I’ll never forget.

(Pre-Chorus)

You thought your absence would tear me apart,

But all it did was show the strength in my heart.

Now I stand taller, now I see clear,

I’ve got no room for a coward here.

(Chorus)

Fk you, for the lies and the pain,

For the years I wasted crying in vain.

I’m autistic, yeah, and I’m proud to be,

‘Cause I’m thriving in ways you’ll never see.

Fk you, for thinking I’d need

A father who only knows how to leave.

I’m better, better without you.

(Bridge)

Every silence, every empty space,

Built a fire in me you can’t erase.

I’m done seeking what you’ll never give,

I’ve got my own damn life to live.

(Chorus)

Fk you, for the lies and the pain,

For the years I wasted crying in vain.

I’m autistic, yeah, and I’m proud to be,

‘Cause I’m thriving in ways you’ll never see.

Fk you, for thinking I’d need

A father who only knows how to leave.

I’m better, better without you.

(Outro)

So here’s your song, your legacy’s clear,

You’re nothing to me but a memory I’ve steered.

Better without you, don’t need your name,

I’ve written my story, and it’s you who’s to blame.
