Hook
This comeback’s personal, I don’t need your damn approval.
It’s an apology to myself for crawlin’ through the ashes.
For eatin’ all the bullshit that I never fuckin’ deserved,
Now I’m done bitin’ my tongue—y’all can choke on every word.
Maybe I’m an asshole. Maybe I’m a piece of shit.
Or maybe I got tired of carryin’ everybody’s shit.
Spent too damn long lettin’ motherfuckers walk all over me,
Now watch me break through the flames… then watch me fuckin’ shine.
Verse 1
I kept the peace while it was killin’ me inside,
Smiled through the hurt while my soul slowly died.
Every damn favor, every ounce that I gave,
Just left me diggin’ my own motherfuckin’ grave.
I ain’t cryin’ over you—I’m mournin’ what could’ve been.
The house, the porch, the kids, the life we were supposed to live.
Now all that’s left is broken bottles, busted dreams,
A heart full of scars bustin’ loose at the damn seams.
You called me selfish the second I stood my ground,
Funny how your true colors come out when I quit backin’ down.
I was good enough to carry everybody’s load,
’Til I said, “Fuck this shit,” and found my own damn road.

If you don’t like the man I became, kiss my motherfuckin’ ass…
I’m done lookin’ back—watch me leave your ass in the past.
Verse 2
Cruisin’ down 321 with the windows rolled low,
Motor screamin’ louder than the demons that I know.
Foot to the floor, leave the past in a cloud of dust,
Only thing I got left in this world is my fuckin’ trust.
I ain’t runnin’ from life—I ain’t hidin’ from fear.
I’m done livin’ every damn day like death’s already here.
If tomorrow never comes, at least I stood my ground.
I won’t die on my knees with you holdin’ me down.
Every scar’s a lesson. Every bruise is proof.
You don’t know a damn thing, so don’t question my truth.
The fire didn’t kill me—it made my soul mean.
Now I’m buildin’ a life they swore I’d never see.
Bridge
Go ahead, talk your shit.
Call me bitter. Call me crazy. Call me a motherfuckin’ wreck.
I don’t owe nobody an explanation anymore.
I’m done carryin’ people who wouldn’t carry me.
This ain’t hate… this is freedom.
Final Hook
This comeback’s personal—I’m takin’ back my fuckin’ name.
I crawled through the ashes, I walked through the flames.
If you don’t like this version of me, kiss my ass as I walk away.
I’ve wasted enough years givin’ a fuck what people say.
Maybe I broke… but broken steel still cuts.
Maybe I cried… but I still got back up.
This ain’t revenge, and it damn sure ain’t pretend.
It’s the first time in my life…
…I’m finally choosin’ my damn self.
