I Said No, Just Go

Intro 
It came out of nowhere.
And my body remembered everything.
(no… no…)

Verse 1
One second I was fine
Just breathing, just existing
Then a voice crossed a line
And I wasn’t invisible anymore

It wasn’t the words
It was the weight of them
Like my space got smaller
And my chest caved in

I felt my pulse in my throat
Hands shaking, vision slow
Every instinct pulled at once
Run, fight, disappear — don’t

Pre-Chorus
I didn’t plan the courage
It showed up anyway
(hold on…)

Chorus
I said no — just go
(no… no… just go)
Clear through the fear
(don’t come closer)

I said no — just go
(no… just go)
Even while I shook right here

You don’t get my space
(not mine to take)
You don’t get control
(not today)

I said no — just go
(no… no… just go)
And I held my ground alone

I was shaking, yeah
(still breathing)
But I didn’t fold
(still here)

I said no — just go
(meant it…)

Verse 2
It stayed in my body after
Like an echo I couldn’t outrun
I wanted to move, wanted to clean
But my body said, “we’re done”

Strength wasn’t loud
It was slowing down
Letting the moment pass
Instead of forcing myself around

I didn’t need answers
I didn’t need blame
I needed my nervous system
To remember my name

Pre-Chorus
I didn’t choose the fear
But I chose to stay
(stay…)

Chorus
I said no — just go
(no… no… just go)
Not once, not light
(I said it)

I said no — just go
(don’t cross that line)
With everything I had inside

You don’t get to unload
(keep it away)
Whatever’s breaking you

I said no — just go
(no… just go)
That boundary was true

I was shaking, yeah
(still breathing)
Still standing though
(still here)

I said no — just go

Bridge
This isn’t about you
(never was)
It’s about me
(keeping myself)

My body did what it had to
(to keep me whole)

Chorus
I said no — just go
(no… no… just go)
And I’m still here now
(right here)

Still breathing
(slow now)
Still allowed

You don’t get to define me
(not today)
By a moment of fear

I don’t need to be calm
(don’t need to explain)
For my “no” to be clear

I said no — just go
(meant every word)
And I didn’t disappear

Outro
Still here.
(still here)
Still mine.
(still mine)
Still safe enough — this time.
(no… just go)
