You told me I was nothing, just a dream gone wrong
You said I'd never make it but I've been proving you wrong all along
Every word you said is a knife in my chest
But I'm done with your lies, I'm done with the rest
You keep holding me back, you keep pulling the strings
Like I'm just a puppet in your hollow world of fake games
I'm not who you want me to be, don't care if you're mad
I'm done being scared, done feeling bad
I don't need your approval, don't need your fake love
I've been fighting for myself and I'm rising above
I'm breaking the chains, I'm tearing it down
I won't be your ghost, I won't wear that clown
You can't keep me trapped in your cage anymore
I'll burn it all down, I'm walking out the door
Breaking the chains, I'm taking the fall
I'll rise from the ashes, I'll stand through it all
You never listened to the battles inside my head
Kept pushing me to follow all the things you said
But I'm not your pawn, not your perfect little lie
I'm done with your rules, I'm done with your lies, I'm done with your lies
You keep holding me back, you keep pulling the strings
Like I'm just a puppet in your hollow fake kings
I'm not who you want me, done with the shade
I don't need your approval, don't need your fake love
I've been fighting for myself and I'm rising above
I'm breaking the chains, I'm tearing it down
I won't be your ghost, I won't wear that clown
You can't keep me trapped in your cage anymore
I'll burn it all down, I'm walking out the door
Breaking the chains, I'm taking the fall
I'll rise from the ashes, I'll stand through it all
I'll take all the hate, all the scars you've left
I'll wear them like armor, cause I'm not your regret
You never believed, but now you'll see
I'm stronger than you ever thought I'd be
I'm breaking the chains, I'm taking the fall
I'll rise from the ashes, I'll stand through it all
I'm breaking free, breaking free
I'm not who you wanted me to be
I'm breaking free, breaking free
And now I'm finally starting to see
Thanks for watching
