Let them miss the man I were if they must But they're missing shadows, missing broken trust They're missing the one who tolerated pain The one who stayed soft in a world so vain Now I've found something they never could see The mirror reflection of who I'm meant to be Stepped out of the fog of their approval's light Into a life where my value burns bright No more chasing, now I create No more pleading, I choose my fate There's strange freedom in needing no closure at all No understanding, no apology's call The greatest revenge isn't revenge, it's growth Evolution beyond their lies and oath Sometimes people only see your worth looking back Scrolling through photos on a nostalgic track But they won't recognize the man before their eyes Forged in their silence, not by their lies When your peace matters more than their response When your path is clear because it's what you want When mornings aren't colored by who stayed or left When your energy's sacred, no longer theft There's strange freedom in needing no closure at all Standing taller not through intimidation's call But because I remembered how to be grounded true My presence itself is a gift, through and through
