Verse 1
You loved me best when I shut the fuck up
When I made myself small enough to pick up
You called it patience, I called it rot
I was bleeding quiet while you played God
You said “I’m sensitive,” like it’s a flaw
Like your cruelty was just being “honest” and raw
You loved my mouth when it said your name
Hated it the second it spoke my pain
Pre-Chorus
You didn’t break me all at once
You rationed it out, you cheapened my trust
So don’t look shocked when I’m done
Chorus
You don’t get credit for not hitting me
For staying when it was convenient
You don’t get praise for the bare minimum
Or loving me only when I bent to it
I don’t owe you peace, I don’t owe you grace
You lost access the day you crossed that line
You don’t get credit for wasting my time
Verse 2
You rewrote fights so you always won
Turned my reactions into the gun
Said I was “crazy,” said I was “too much”
Funny how that word means “won’t shut up”
You kept a scorecard I never saw
Moved the goalposts, changed the law
Then cried when I finally stopped playing fair
Like I owed you loyalty while choking on air
Pre-Chorus
You trained me to doubt my own voice
Then called it love when I had no choice
I choose myself — deal with it
Chorus
You don’t get credit for not hitting me
For staying when it was convenient
You don’t get praise for the bare minimum
Or loving me only when I bent to it
I don’t owe you calm, I don’t owe you nice
You burned the bridge, you rolled the dice
You don’t get credit for wasting my life
Bridge
I hope it haunts you — not my face
But the moment you realized I wasn’t yours to shape
I hope you hear me every time you lie
Telling someone else you “really tried”
You didn’t lose me suddenly
You lost me every time you chose yourself over decency
Final Chorus
You don’t get credit, you don’t get shit
Not my body, not my forgiveness
You don’t get to rewrite what you did
Just because I survived it
I’m not bitter — I’m awake
I’m not cruel — I escaped
You don’t get credit
You get my absence
Outro
Say whatever helps you sleep at night
I’m gone — and god, it feels right
