finally free

I used to wake up with the weight on my chest
Every breath was a battle, no rest
Your words were chains wrapped around my mind
And I thought that was love at the time
I built my world around your storms
Lost myself trying to keep you warm
But somewhere in the fire I found my way
And I'm not the same as yesterday

All the nights I cried alone
Turned into strength I didn't know I owned
Now the Sun's on my face, and I can see
The life I was meant to lead

I'm finally free
No more shadows chasing me
The pain you gave can't touch me now
I've broken out, I don't know how
But I'm finally free
No more begging just to breathe
I found my wings, I found my peace
And I'm finally free

I thought I'd shatter without your hand
But I learned to walk, learned to stand
Every scar is just a map I hold
Of the places I survived, the battles I've told
Your voice used to haunt my dreams
Now it's just noise in the background it seems
I'm lighter now, the air is mine
And I'm leaving your ghost behind

All the nights I cried alone
Turned into strength I didn't know I owned
Now the Sun's on my face, and I can see
The life I was meant to lead

I'm finally free
No more shadows chasing me
The pain you gave can't touch me now
I've broken out, I don't know how
But I'm finally free
No more begging just to breathe
I found my wings, I found my peace
And I'm finally free

You can't reach me where I am
I've built my life on higher land
Every tear I shed was worth the climb
To feel this peace, to claim what's mine

I'm finally free
No more shadows chasing me
The pain you gave can't touch me now
I've broken out, I don't know how
But I'm finally free
No more begging just to breathe
I found my wings, I found my peace
And I'm finally free

Yeah
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Finally free, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
Finally free, yeah
