I'm On The Other Side Of Mental Abuse Lyrics

I'm not my past

I'm not my mistakes

I'm not my past, I'm not my mistakes

I choose to believe you enough cuz I owe me today

I'm not my past, I'm not my mistakes

refuse to run, suffices to cover these scars today

I'm on the other side of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I sold myself out of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I'm on the other side of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I chose to love you despite this mental wound

I'm on the other side cuz I saw the human in you

Pray to God why this mental abuse happened to me

Last time I've given you power to devour me

The word victim was looped in my head

I had people to live for so I wasn't dropping dead

Guilty, conscious, told me to use my voice

God chose me to bring hope, that's not a choice

Every word in my letter became my testimony

The words caught in my focus, I didn't want you to judge me

People told me don't burn bridges

But our professional relationship felt like a life sentence

We dealt with this collision, nearly confided in a prescription

We were enslaved by indifference and pride was our prison

Searching high and low for a sense of normalcy

Alcohol never numbed the anguish, still has something left in me

The pressure's not a button, you can't stop, get slighted, neat

I couldn't overdose cuz someone's living through my suffering

I'm on the other side of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I saw myself out of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I'm on the other side of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I chose to love you despite this mental wound

On the other side, cuz I saw the human in you

At times I'd rather have swallowed lead than be led by your curses

You would not rob me of inner peace and make me feel worthless

Presumed being a man was keeping my mouth shut

I'm walking in God's plan and now I hold my crown up

All the stones tossed my way, I built it from the ground up

Inner solace, I love the sound of

Thank you for your guidance, no spite left in me

The remedy was you not controlling me or my destiny

Healing behind closed doors never was in vain

Left you behind me, too mature to curse your name

I never wallow in fear, God deemed me as a king

You became a testimony even through my suffering

Never needed your permission, I think highly of myself

I won't toss a buck at you, learn to forgive you of myself

You won't live, work free in my head

Never needed you to save me when I got an S on my chest

I'm on the other side of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I saw myself out of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I'm on the other side of this mental abuse

I found solace on the other side, man, I'm telling the truth

I chose to love you despite this mental wound

On the other side, cause I saw the human in you
