I Finally Found Myself Lyrics
I spent years trying to be who they wanted
Changing pieces of me just to feel wanted
Smiling while my hopes sold out
Giving love while my own heart broke
Every day I got scars from battles nobody saw
Still learn how to stand tall through it all
And every time life tried to pull me under
Something inside me survived the thunder
Now I look into the mirror differently
For the first time, I like who I see
So if you wanna love me now, love me loud, love me exactly as I am
I finally found myself after the heartbreak
After the nights I thought my soul would break
And now I don’t care who stays or walks away
I survived too much to live in fear today
I wanna laugh without guilt cry without shame
Love without worrying if people stay
And if the world gets heavy, baby come rest with me
I’ll be your shelter, you be my peace
Cause after all the hell we lived through
We deserve a life that feels okay
So let me love you my way
So let me love you my way
I used to chase validation from strangers
While ignoring the love that could’ve saved me
Kept asking people to choose me
Before I ever chose myself completely
But healing changed the way I see life
Now I protect my heart and my life
And maybe I’m still healing slowly
But at least now I know the real me
I’m not perfect, I still overthink
Still have nights where I’m on the edge mentally
But I don’t hate myself for it anymore
And that changed everything
Cause people like us feel everything deeply
That’s why we love so endlessly
I finally found myself after the heartbreak
After the nights I thought my soul would break
Now I don care who stays or walks away
I survived too much to live in fear today
I wanna laugh without guilt cry without shame
Love without worrying if people stay
And if the world gets heavy, baby come rest with me
I’ll be your shelter, you be my peace
Cause after all the hell we lived through
We deserve a life that feels okay
So let me love you my way
