I Got My Peace

Verse 1

I thought we were a family

You really had me fooled

White dress

Big day

Nice house

Two kids too

⸻

Verse 2

But you didn’t tell me the other parts

The ones that break you

The pieces of you

That were broken

…and broke me too

⸻

(Pre chorus)

I stood by your side

Did everything I could

I just wanted love

…but you never could

⸻

🔥 Chorus

You lost yourself

At the bottom of a glass

Left me there

Holding everything we had

You took it all

And said it was my fault

…but I was the one

holding us up

⸻

Verse 3

Family?

That’s not what I’d say

More like a wreck

That never got saved

⸻

Verse 4

You took something sacred

And made it your own

Drank every bottle

And broke what was home

⸻

🔥 Bridge

You had it easy

I carried the weight

Two kids in my arms

…and you

You found your way eventually

Just not with me

(beat)

Most nights I cried myself to sleep

(beat… longer)

Door blocked

Locked —

me and the kids inside

Trying so hard to hide

⸻

(Fear)

We stayed quiet

Barely breathing

Listening for footsteps

Praying you’d leave

⸻

Break

We got out

(beat)

Yes, we got out

⸻

🔥 Final Chorus (not louder—stronger)

You kept everything

That made you look whole

And I was left

Holding a horrible truth alone

⸻

Outro

You don’t get any more

I have me now

…and we got out

(beat)

You kept your bottle

And I GOT my peace
