[Verse 1]
I think I'm everything you ever needed
Proceeded to stab my back while you saw me bleeding
You planted the evidence but I couldn't believe it
I said that I was through with it and you let me leave (boy you just let me leave)
Even though I could do better (do better)
I went through to much to not let us be together (together)
But I had no choice I couldn't keep holding on
Especially when you let me know the love was gone (gone, gone, gone)

[Chorus]
Had to realize loving you was not my purpose
Everything you did to me, boy that was all on purpose
And just because it happened to me don't mean I deserved it
I didn't know my worth but now I know I'm worth it
I think it's time we finally closed the curtains
Really showed your colors all the lies you've been rehearsing
And every time I sing it oh I hope you hear the verses
I didn't know my worth but now I know I'm worth it

[Verse 2]
He calling me just to hear me speak
Got love for his mama so he got love for me
So much respect he could never raise his voice
And he don't control me he say I got a choice
He wanna see me fly he call me song bird (he call me song bird)
Only difference is that he don't make the song heard (make the song heard)
And if I need time alone yeah he gives me space (give me space)
A healthy relationship at a steady pace
I told him about you his last girl did the same
But I never make him suffer for your mistakes
Was almost a year ago so I took a chance
Facing my fears and found me a better man
Somebody better than you

[Chorus]
Had to realize that loving you was not my purpose
Everything you did to me, boy that was all on purpose
And just because it happened to me don't mean I deserved it
I didn't know my worth but now I know I'm worth it
I think its time we finally closed the curtains
Really showed your colors all the lies you've been rehearsing
And every time I sing it oh I hope you hear the verses
I didn't know my worth but now I know I'm worth it (now I know I'm worth it)

[Outro]
Always. Granny always told me don't burn the five dollar candle just to look for a lost penny in the dark and use it to set my heart on fire. But I will not rekindle this fire, no my desire for you is disconnected, if you don't deserve a poem, I already wrote the pages in my blue notebook. I'm sorry I had to know.....
