MUSIC FOR SALE

[Verse 1]
I've let them take my joy for much too long
When it feels like home, but you know its wrong.
Hard to let go of what I thought was me
breaking these cycles… had to set it free

[Pre-Chorus]
I had to take a look at all Ive done,
if it doesnt align with who I’ve become.
Stop making excuses to stay in pain—
Cause its not easy, to make the change

[Chorus]
To know myself first, To know what I need,
I’m done waitin’ on someone to be what they won’t be.
If I dont know myself first, and set boundaries ...for me
then there is no one to blame
(No one to blame) but me (if Im not happy)
(Know myself first) I must
(Know myself first)

[Verse 2]
Some people only love the broken you,
But I’m whole now, and that love won’t do.
I checked my heart, I checked my space—
Not everyone belongs in this place.

[Pre-Chorus]
I wrote it down, I made it clear,
What brings me peace what makes me heal
Before I fix the outside,
I gotta know what’s goin’ on inside...

[Chorus]
I know myself first, I know what I need,
I’m done waitin’ on someone to be what they can't be.
If I dont know myself first, and set boundaries ...for me
then there is no one to blame
(No one to blame) but me (if Im not happy)
(Know myself first) I must
(Know myself first)

[Bridge – breakdown style]
Now that I know myself, I can stand in my truth,
I dont need permission to do what I do
If I gotta walk away, I know Ill be ok
Cause I know what I need, and I not afraid
No!!

I know myself first, (I know myself first)
I know what I need, (I know what I need)
I’m done waitin’ on someone to be what they can’t be
If I dont know myself first,
and set boundaries ...for me
then there is no one to blame
(No one to blame) but me (if Im not happy)
(Know myself first) I must
(Know myself first)

Mmm...
(Know myself first) I must
(Know myself first)
