On My Own Terms

Verse 1
I won’t bow my head again,
I won’t play the role you chose.
I’ve been quiet, I’ve been small,
Trying hard to keep the peace you broke.

You told me who I had to be,
What to feel, what not to say.
But I’m done asking for your rules
To justify my way.

Pre-Chorus
I carried weight that wasn’t mine,
Called it love, called it fate.
Now I breathe in, draw the line —
It’s never been too late.

Chorus
I won’t be ruled anymore,
I don’t live by your demands.
I am strong, I am alive,
I decide where I stand.
I make my choices, I take the fall,
I rise without your voice.
This is my life, my fight, my call —
And I choose.

Verse 2
I learned to trust my beating heart,
Even when it shook with fear.
Every scar reminds me now
I survived — I’m still right here.

You don’t get to pull my strings,
Don’t get to shape my name.
I walk forward, head held high,
I own my flame.

Pre-Chorus
I’m done confusing love with chains,
Done mistaking pain for truth.
I found my strength in letting go,
In choosing me, in choosing proof.

Chorus
I won’t be ruled anymore,
I don’t live by your demands.
I am strong, I am alive,
I decide where I stand.
I make my choices, I take the fall,
I rise without your voice.
This is my life, my fight, my call —
And I choose.

Bridge (spoken or soft)
I don’t need your control
To feel whole.
I don’t need your permission
To live.

Final Chorus (bigger)
I won’t be ruled anymore,
Hear my name in every step.
I am strong, I am alive,
No regrets, no debts.
I create, I break, I grow,
I own my truth, my voice.
This is my life — on my own terms,
And I choose.
