[Verse 1]
I refuse to lose
It's a part of me, but I choose
To not fill your shoes
With your mental abuse

In the moments when I feel weak
You may say it's 'cause I'm half of a man
But just remember the words you speak
Are the reason why my mother ran

[Chorus]
Don't matter what you expect
You think that I could pretend?
Can you live with your regret? 'Cause
My wounds will never forget
The scars that you left
The scars that you left

[Verse 2]
It's the ones around me
That have helped me to see
That what's mine is not yours
The reflection of me
That I see is burning
Is the passion in my soul
In the moments when I feel weak
You may say it's 'cause I'm half of a man
But just remember the words you speak
Are the reason why my mother ran

In the moments when I feel strong
I won't deny it's from the power you gave
But just remember you don't define me
It's my own path I chose to pave

[Chorus]
Don't matter what you expect, no
You think that I could pretend? No
Can you live with your regret? 'Cause
My wounds will never forget
The scars that you left
