Genesis

I thought those walls were keeping me safe
But became bound by those silly mistakes
Couldn't find peace in the bed that I'd made
But damn was tired
Laden with bags given to me
Unravel the seams
How'd I become my enemy?
This time around Ima do it differently

I'm not the stories I'm made of
These patterns and cycles I've chosen to break em
Road has been long but I'm grateful
Love that I needed it started within me
When my heart broke, it brought me to life
Mountains will move, but it takes time
I get to love me alive

Pain may be deep but I'm willing to dive
Speak with a voice that's finally mine
This is the start of the rest of my life

Giving myself flowers was hard for me
Letting myself down felt so easy
But then I shifted the conversation
To have some more patience with who I'm trying to be
Not be the judge or the jury
More gentle
And now I feel safe in my mind
Doing it different this time

I'm not the stories I'm made of
These patterns and cycles I've chosen to break em
Road has been long but I'm grateful
Love that I needed it started within me
When my heart broke, it brought me to life
Mountains will move, but it takes time
I get to love me alive

Pain may be deep but I'm willing to dive
Speak with a voice that's finally mine
This is the start of the rest of my life
