[Verse 1]
You came down without a scratch on you
And I was left with all the marks
Without a doubt, a perfect match, I thought
But it was doomed from the start, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not asking for your permission
Told you twice and you just dismissed it
What keeps you up if it's not for my love?
When I stop and think, you never opted to listen
It's exhausting to reminisce it
Now, there's no choice anyhow

[Chorus]
When you had me wrapped in your arms
With grip so tight, I couldn't break apart
It was hard for me to see the scars
No, baby, I don't need no help
See, I can hold on to myself
Yeah, I can hold on to myself

[Post-Chorus]
Don't wanna, it's not easy
I'm much stronger since you released me
We got caught up completely
Much stronger since you released me
[Verse 2]
You were fine with me at half my best
Because it made you twice as great
Yeah, we just smiled and waved like all the rest
But you were blind to the hate I had

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not asking for your permission
Told you twice and you just dismissed it
What keeps you up if it's not for my love?
When I stop and think, you never opted to listen
It's exhausting to reminisce it
Now, there's no choice anyhow

[Chorus]
When you had me wrapped in your arms
With grip so tight, I couldn't break apart
It was hard for me to see the scars
No, baby, I don't need no help
See, I can hold on to myself
Yeah, I can hold on to myself

[Post-Chorus]
Don't wanna, it's not easy
I'm much stronger since you released me
We got caught up completely
Much stronger since you released me
[Outro]
Don't wanna, it's not easy
I'm much stronger since you released me
We got caught up completely
Much stronger since you released me
