Funny how I spent so long thinking I was the problem. Every argument was my fault. Every tear was my fault. Every time you hurt me… somehow, I was the one apologising. But then I walked away. And that's when I saw what I'd been dealing with. You had a way of turning everything around, I'd tell you that you'd hurt me, you'd tell me I was the one too loud. You'd twist my words until they sounded like a crime, Then swear I was imagining it every single time. You never pushed me forward, never told me I could win, Every time I tried to build myself you'd knock me down again. Nothing I achieved was good enough, nothing I did was right, You could turn my proudest moment into another fucking fight. And I kept thinking maybe I was wrong, Maybe I was selfish, maybe I'd pushed too far. Funny how the guilty one was always me somehow… Until I finally walked away and figured you out. You're fucking toxic, yeah, I'll say it again. You're fucking toxic, and you always were in the end. You poison everything you touch, then act like I'm the one to blame. I swallowed all your bullshit for years, now I'm saying it to your face. You're fucking toxic, yeah, that's your legacy. You're fucking toxic… but you're not fucking with me. You're fucking toxic! You'd turn every situation until somehow I was wrong, I'd explain exactly what happened, you'd twist it all along. You'd make me question everything, make me doubt what I knew, And somehow every argument would always end with me and you. You had a way of making blame feel like it belonged to me, I'd walk away apologising for things I couldn't even see. I spent so long believing every problem started with me, Taking all the blame just to keep the fucking peace. But something changed when I finally walked away… Because the mask don't stay on when nobody's left to play. You're fucking toxic, yeah, I'll say it again. You're fucking toxic, and I finally see you for what you are. You poison everything you touch, then wonder why they walk away. I swallowed all your words for years, but I'm not swallowing them today. You're fucking toxic, that's all you'll ever be. You're fucking toxic… and you don't get the best of me. You're fucking toxic! Then I found out what a real relationship feels like. Someone who celebrates every little thing I do. Someone who makes me feel like I can actually break through. She doesn't put me down, she builds me up instead. She sees a little victory and puts a smile on my face. She pushes me to be better, believes in what I can become. And when I doubt myself, she reminds me where I've come from. And that's when it hit me… I wasn't asking for too much. I was just asking the wrong person. You're fucking toxic, yeah, I'll say it again. You're fucking toxic, and I finally see you for what you are. You poison everything you touch, then wonder why they walk away. I swallowed all your words for years, but I'm not swallowing them today. You're fucking toxic, that's all you'll ever be. You're fucking toxic… and you don't get the best of me. You're fucking toxic! Yeah, I'm done with your shit. You're fucking toxic! And I'm finally fucking rid of it. You're fucking toxic! You're fucking toxic! You're fucking toxic! Funny thing is… I spent years thinking I was the problem. Turns out… I just couldn't see the problem standing right in front of me.
