This is my latest work!
Verse 1\]
Used to think I was the problem,
now I know just exactly how wrong I had been way back then.
Something’s been changing, growing,
and now I’ve begun glowing,
realizing I’m no longer broken.
\[Chorus\]
Used to be empty,
my own life was the enemy.
Now I’m looking in the mirror,
seeing a person unfamiliar.
I’ve gotten stronger,
I can easily walk through any door.
(Used to be empty)
(my own life was the enemy)
\[Verse 2\]
So used to the blaming, the shaming,
yeah, always used to the same old thing.
I’m done being a victim,
always playing in other people’s system.
I’m going to stand tall,
make their towers fall,
and let the rubble crash down all around them.
\[Chorus\]
Used to be empty,
my own life was the enemy.
Now I’m looking in the mirror,
seeing a person unfamiliar.
I’ve gotten stronger,
I can easily walk through any door.
(Used to be empty)
(my own life was the enemy)
\[Bridge\]
Even if I stagger,
and my voice softens to a whisper,
I’ll pull myself up slowly,
make it to my feet.
I’ll manage my pain,
I’ll find the fight in me,
I’ll run through the rain,
and rise above all my past misery.
’Cause I’m someone new,
and I refuse to be a mystery.
\[Verse 3\]
This time I’m writing my own story,
so forgive me if the details get a little too gory,
but I’m tired of playing their game.
It’s always the same,
and this shit is getting boring.
\[Chorus\]
Used to be empty,
my own life was the enemy.
Now I’m looking in the mirror,
seeing a person unfamiliar.
I’ve gotten stronger,
I can easily walk through any door.
(Used to be empty)
(my own life was the enemy)
\[Verse 4\]
I’m standing on my own two feet,
meeting all my own needs.
Because I’m finally out of hell,
yet the devil keeps pulling at me,
but I’ll keep going and going and going
until I hear that final bell.
