Changed (Moving On)(Rudy/RideOrDie)

V5.5

[Intro] [clean electric guitar, palm-muted riff] Yeah I guess people change When staying the same hurts too much [Verse 1] [rhythmic melodic rap vocals] I kept my phone face down when your name lit up ’Cause every time I answered, I was never enough You had a way with words that would cut so deep Then act like I was crazy when I couldn’t sleep I gave you all my patience, gave you all my time Tried to fix a love that was breaking mine Every little promise turned into a ghost Now the person that I loved is the one I miss the most But I can’t keep bleeding just to prove I care Can’t keep looking for a heart that was never there I learned the hard way, love don’t mean control And losing you might be the way I save my soul [Pre-Chorus] [drums build lightly] So I packed up the pain that I carried for years Wiped off my face but I still felt the tears I don’t hate you, but I can’t stay near I’m choosing myself and I’m leaving you here [Chorus] [rhythmic male vocals] You said that I changed But who in their right mind would even stay the same way After the games [kick drum and snare enter] That you played I can honestly say that I’m gone Moving on I gotta stay strong for myself and believe I can make it through I had my heart torn out without you But I’m finally moving on [sung vocals, bass enters] [rhythmic male and female vocals] You said that I changed Because I don’t text nor I don’t call anymore What can I say I just couldn’t pretend anymore [guitar switches to open chords] I was so sore So I got to say goodbye And move on with my life and believe I can make it through I had my heart torn out without you But I’m finally moving on [Verse 2] [rhythmic melodic rap vocals, guitar returns to palm-muted riff] I used to blame myself for the way things fell Like I was the reason we went through hell But I replayed the nights, every fight, every lie And I finally saw the truth I kept pushing aside You only missed me when I didn’t chase Only loved me when I knew my place But I’m not that kid with a broken smile Begging you to stay for another while Now I’m out late with my windows down Same old streets but a brand-new sound Got my friends saying, “Man, you look alive” Guess I had to lose you just to find my drive And I still get memories out of nowhere Your voice in a song, your scent in the air But I don’t turn back when the feeling comes I let it pass through, then I keep moving on [Pre-Chorus] [snare hits harder, bass pushes forward] So I’m done with the blame and I’m done with the fear Done with the cycle that kept me here I don’t need closure from someone unclear I found my peace when I disappeared [Chorus] [rhythmic male vocals] You said that I changed But who in their right mind would even stay the same way After the games That you played I can honestly say that I’m gone Moving on I gotta stay strong for myself and believe I can make it through I had my heart torn out without you But I’m finally moving on [sung vocals] [rhythmic male and female vocals] You said that I changed Because I don’t text nor I don’t call anymore What can I say I just couldn’t pretend anymore I was so sore So I got to say goodbye And move on with my life and believe I can make it through I had my heart torn out without you But I’m finally moving on [Bridge] [half-time drums, open chords, emotional sung-rap vocals] Maybe one day I’ll forgive everything Maybe one day it won’t even sting Maybe I’ll hear your name and feel nothing at all No rise in my chest, no fear, no fall But tonight I’m proud I didn’t go back Proud I stayed strong when my heart cracked Proud I let go of what kept me small I lost your love, but I found it all [Final Chorus] [full band, bigger vocals, open chords] You said that I changed But who in their right mind would even stay the same way After the games That you played I can honestly say that I’m gone Moving on I gotta stay strong for myself and believe I can make it through I had my heart torn out without you But I’m finally moving on [sung vocals, layered harmonies] [rhythmic male and female vocals] You said that I changed Because I don’t text nor I don’t call anymore What can I say I just couldn’t pretend anymore I was so sore So I got to say goodbye And move on with my life and believe I can make it through I had my heart torn out without you But I’m finally moving on [Outro] [clean guitar riff, drums fade] Yeah, I’m finally moving on No more holding on No more breaking down I’m finally moving on
