Didn’t knock, just turned the key

Truth don’t wait for sympathy

—

You drew the lines, I crossed the map

Told me hush, but I spoke back

I wore doubt like second skin

Now I don’t fit that shape I’m in

I learned the game, then broke the rules

Let go of playing sweet and cool

You watched me go, said I’d regret

But I haven’t looked back yet

—

No permission needed, no waiting sign

I lit my fire, let it shine

Turned every “no” into a light

It’s not yours now — it’s my right

No throne, no path, no man to please

I walk my rhythm through the breeze

You can call it bold or blind

But this time, I call it mine

—

I used to edit every word

Tried to sound sweet, never heard

Now I sing the way I breathe

Unapologetic, wild and free

You labeled me too sensitive

I took that and made it live

I stitched each tear into a song

And danced like I’ve belonged all along

—

No permission needed, no waiting sign

I lit my fire, let it shine

Turned every “no” into a light

It’s not yours now — it’s my right

No throne, no path, no man to please

I walk my rhythm through the breeze

You can call it bold or blind

But this time, I call it mine

—

I don’t owe you an explanation

My joy’s not built on your foundation

Tried to quiet me down, I grew

Now there’s no place left for you

—

No permission needed, no waiting sign

I lit my fire, let it shine

Turned every “no” into a light

It’s not yours now — it’s my right

No throne, no path, no man to please

I walk my rhythm through the breeze

You can call it bold or blind

But I call it…

mine

—

Mine tonight…

No permission…

Mine…
