[Verse 1] Just when I thought that I was finally okay You came along and turned my world another way I never saw it coming I never knew your thoughts And looking back, I wish I’d known what I know now It hit me like the wildest stormy day Knocked me down, took my breath away I didn’t know what to do Didn’t know what to say But the sound of your voice changed everything that day [Pre-Chorus] Maybe we didn’t talk enough Maybe I thought we were doing fine You had a different road in mind And I wasn’t walking by your side You said that I was unavailable That I kept my heart behind a wall But it wasn’t what you asked of me It was the way, the time, the way it all came down [Chorus] Now I’m fighting for my sanity I’m fighting for my worth I’m fighting for the people who Still need me on this earth I’m fighting through the darkness I’m finding who I used to be And after everything I’ve lost I’m fighting for me [Verse 2] I needed time to find the words to give you An answer that would somehow make you understand But you needed it right then You couldn’t wait for when I could put my heart into the words you needed And maybe I was slower than you wanted Maybe I was scared of what I’d find But sometimes healing doesn’t happen On somebody else’s time [Pre-Chorus] So now I’m standing in the mirror Looking straight into my eyes Asking who is underneath All the things I’ve tried to hide Am I the man I see before me? Or just another face behind the mask? I’ve spent too long just existing Now I’m finally asking what comes next [Chorus] Now I’m fighting for my sanity I’m fighting for my worth I’m fighting for the people who Still need me on this earth I’m fighting through the darkness I’m finding who I used to be And after everything I’ve lost I’m fighting for me [Bridge] For too long I was a shadow Just a beacon with no light Going nowhere, standing still Just surviving every night But something changed when you walked away Something woke up inside The matters of the heart became The reason I’m alive I can’t change what happened I can’t rewrite yesterday But I can choose the man I am And I can choose to stay [Breakdown] I’m fighting… I’m fighting… Not against you anymore I’m fighting… I’m fighting… For the man I was before [Final Chorus] I’m fighting for my sanity I’m fighting for my worth I’m fighting for my family I’m fighting for my life I’m fighting through the darkness I’m learning how to breathe After all the things that broke me I’m becoming who I need to be I’m fighting for my sanity I’m fighting for my worth I’m fighting for the ones I love I’m fighting for this life And though the road is painful I finally believe After everything I’ve been through After everything I’ve seen I don’t need to be somebody else I’m fighting for me [Outro] I’m fighting for me I’m fighting for me Not who you wanted me to be Not who I thought I had to be I’m finally standing I’m finally free After all this time I’m fighting for me
