Thanks For Hurting Me

I've been wrong and crushed so many times
From 2021, I knew the pain has just begun
Though I'm messed up in the head
Fast-forward to today's date, where do I begin?

After opening my eyes
Music made me feel like I can fly
And though I really wanted to die
I survived and now I think all the time

They told me it would be alright
Now here look at me, I am fine
All the pain and suffering
I'm getting up, and now look at where I be

I'm rising like the sun
After all of it, I'm still not done
And though you weren't the best of me
There's something that I want you all to see

Though y'all made me feel worthless
Made me feel like my heart wasn't meant to be loved with
I realized that I can love me
And have a trusted group who supports me

At first, I didn't wanna tell no one
I was young, I was naive, it was new and dumb
And though these years have hurted me
I'm finally comfortable talking 'bout it to see

How I view this world
Why am I the way that I am
I feel like no one gives me a chance
That's why it's me, and I feel like I am free

Made me wanna hurt myself
That wasn't great for my mental health
But I know I'm better than that
In the past, strength was something that I lacked

Looking back at it all
I didn't deserve to have the fall
But now I'm glad I did
If it never happened, would this change, would it?

Healing arc has been begun
Helping me come together as one
And now I look at who loves me
I smile and think about it, and I see

They told me it would be alright
Now here look at me, I am fine
All the pain and suffering
I'm getting up, and now look at where I be

I'm rising like the sun
After all of it, I'm still not done
And though you weren't the best of me
There's something that I want you all to see

(Thanks for hurting me)
All the songs that I got to sing
(Thanks for hurting me)
You made me wiser, don't you see?
(Thanks for hurting me)
I'll continue to bond with others!
(Thanks for hurting me) making me realize
There's more to life than being born and die
