I'm Gonna Be Ok

lyrics

I was so young
I was so naive
Gave you the rawest part of me
Then you tried to cut me deep

You'd always put me down
So many times swear I almost drowned
I was a people pleaser
Trying to keep you around

& You'd push me away
But you kept me on a string
Losing you had me so afraid
I couldn't do a thing

So I broke down crying
Out of desperation
I was sick from trying
I had this revelation

My pain and insecurity
Were the only things that drew you to me
A voice of reason came through to me
I could finally see the light
But it was hard 'cause

When I left you
You'd call me names
You'd run your mouth
And it hurt
But I learned
To tune you out and I've

Finally reached the day
I don't give a fuck what you say
Finally reached the day
I don't give a fuck what you say
Feels good just to walk away
Done with your games
Didn't come to play

Should have left you sooner
That's a fact
Took a step forward
Took too many back
But I've finally reached a place
Where I know I'm gonna be ok

And
I always tried to see the best in you
But you'd never do the fucking same for me
I always tried to see the best in you
But you'd never do the fucking same for me
I always tried to see the best in you
But you'd never do the fucking same for me
A cycle just doomed too repeat
No
I ain't going through this routine no more

'Cause
My pain and insecurity
Were the only things that drew you to me
A voice of reason came through to me
I could finally see the light
But it was hard 'cause

When I left you
You'd call me names
You'd run your mouth
And it hurt
But I learned
To tune you out and I've

Finally reached the day
I don't give a fuck what you say
Finally reached the day
I don't give a fuck what you say
Feels good just to walk away
Done with your games
Didn't come to play

Should have left you sooner
That's a fact
Took a step forward
Took too many back
But I've finally reached a place
Where I know I'm gonna be ok

And you just want to take us both backwards
Fighting over shit that don't matter no more
Want the last word? You can have it.
I'm ok.

'Cause
My pain and insecurity
Were the only things that drew you to me
A voice of reason came through to me
I could finally see the light
