I'm done with all of the shit
that you did to my heart
And now i am done
God i'm so fucking done
Yeah, i'm done with all this shit
So now, now
I'm back in control of my own fucking life
I swear that was the last fucking straw
You've done it! Here's a medal
Finally broke this camel's back
So you can go away now
Take a seat, have laugh
I've spent far too long just waiting, playing
Your cute little mind games won't work anymore
I'm cutting you out of my life
There's no time left for fake little goodbyes
I am done with you and all of your stupid ass lies
I know my worth
I know my worth
I know my worth
Goddamnit I swear I fucking know my own worth
You say that you care, always say that you care
But did you care? Fuck it. Really ever care?
When i was just a child, saw you hit my own brother
Said he didn't deserve your love
Because he wasn't "white enough"
Because he wasn't "man enough"
He showed his emotions, showed his vulnerability
I swear that you could have just looked right past me, through me
You claim you're that my mother, they say that you're my mother
But if we're family, we're supposed to care for each other
You took away my father, claimed that "he was just the worst"
I tried to look away, look away and ignore
That my brothers and i were the only ones diverse enough
On your side of the family to have to go through life
Experiencing racism just years after five
He was the one, the one to show me love
The only one who seemed to not give up
When i was tired, when i was done
I didn't want the pain, I didn't want the hurt
He was the one, the one that was there
When i just wanted to throw it all away
I didn't want to live another fucking day of agony, of misery
He showed that he cared
That there was more to life
Than family members that make you wanna stab yourself with a knife
He showed me kindness, and patients, and life lessons too
He showed up when i needed him
Like what you expect your parents to do
You're supposed to be able to count on them.
It's because of him that i'm back
I'm back in control of my goddamn life
