What Do You Gotta Prove

I'm traumatized by my past
My broken heart can tell no lies
I always thought I was to blame for all three times

They told me “You're a liar”
“You're worthless sand” It was so toxic, it got out of hand
They made me feel like half the man that I know I am

So I burned them from my memories
Yet the scars, they always haunted me
The thoughts made me go crazy

But then I realized the truth
With one single question I knew

They were wrong

I don't have to take their shit
I'm stronger than their tricks

And all I had to ask myself was this

Well what do you gotta prove, to be the person that you choose
That's true and right for you and all that you do

I know it seems like you failed, but it was their fault that they bailed on you
It was not the end of the trail

You're worth so much more, so choose an open door
And make the move, that's true to you
