The Power of the NO
I felt power when I told you no

I felt power when I told you no
Yes man, going when you say go
Making myself feel high, at an all-time low
Dead grass I was left to mow
New roots I was forced to grow
You asked me to catch a train about 20 stops away
If I was to leave at night, I’ll arrive by day
No, No, No I’m done
I wish a mother properly raised her son
Untethered now bitch, you got the right one
I was drowned by your waters so I headed for the sun
The load of this trauma had to weigh a ton
Let that be the last song you sung
I was wrong, I tried to deceive you
Everything I attempted just to please you
That’s weird that I couldn’t believe you
You already thought I wouldn’t leave you
So I branched out, yea grew like tree’s do
Be clear crazy this is not to tease you
I just want to know how many lives you bleed through
Maybe you so invisible that I only I could see you
Won’t deny I want you to live your life
I walked away once when you looked back twice
Guarantee I chose fate while you rolled the dice
Lucky777 did you not see it?
Too many awakenings to count I guess about three if
You allow me to count the times I died
Too many years our souls were tied
It made me stagnant, still, aloof
All I had was memory as proof
The cord was cut but it didn’t feel loose
A child was born not knowing about her dad
All those experiences you pray she never has -
I had,
Trauma residue on my brand new exterior
We all want to heal because it sounds superior
I don’t have to let you know
I felt power when I let it go
