Solid Ground - ShsSlayer [SSC6, USA]

℗ShsSlayer 2024 [Intro] Used to think we were strong, unbreakable, But looking back, we were broken, unstable. All those fights, all that strain, Just running in circles, living in pain. [Verse 1] Walking on eggshells, holding my breath, Your words cut deep like a double-edged threat. Arguing over pennies, counting every dime, Struggling for peace, losing all my time. You’d call it love, but it felt like war, I never knew what I was fighting for. One day you left, you went and found someone new And honestly, it was the best thing you'd ever do. [Pre-Chorus] I was shattered, picking up the pieces, But I found strength in the places I was weakest. Couldn’t see it then, but now I’m sure Freedom’s sweet when you close the wrong door. [Chorus] Now I’m better off, no more weight to bear, Every bill’s paid, breathing easy air. Got a girl who loves me for who I am, No more pretending, no more sham. No regrets, I see it clear, We parted ways, I’ve got no fear. Life’s so much better, you’re not around, I found my peace, I’m on solid ground. [Verse 2] Yeah, we drove lemons, breaking down on the road, Fights every time we came back home. And then I paid for a car you wouldn’t let me drive Just another way you’d try to control my life. But now those payments are done, it’s fully mine, I’m cruising free, not stuck in a bind. Got no chains holding me back, With you, it was always a heart attack. [Bridge] No more lies, no more sleepless nights, No more wondering where you’d been, why we’d fight. I’m driving with the windows down, No one to scream, no one to frown. A house that’s filled with laughter and light, With someone who loves me, not just out of spite. She’s got my back, no strain, no stress We’re building something real, not a total mess. [Chorus] Now I’m better off, no more weight to bear, Every bill’s paid, breathing easy air. Got a girl who loves me for who I am, No more pretending, no more sham. No regrets, I see it clear, We parted ways, I’ve got no fear. Life’s so much better, you’re not around, I found my peace, I’m on solid ground. [Chorus] Now I’m better off, no more weight to bear, Every bill’s paid, breathing easy air. Got a girl who loves me for who I am, No more pretending, no more sham. No regrets, I see it clear, We parted ways, I’ve got no fear. Life’s so much better, you’re not around, I found my peace, I’m on solid ground. [Outro] Thankful for the pain, for the nights I cried, Because now I’m living, feeling alive. Got what I wanted... everything’s fine, A life that’s truly, finally mine. Got what I wanted all along I’m where I belong… where I belong...
