I'm done with you controlling me
Or telling me I'm not good enough
I'm done with you only letting me see
Things in me that make my self esteem so rough

I have tried with all my heart
To convince myself that I'm fine
But with you here, I can't set myself apart
It seems I'm running out of time

I wish you would leave
And never come back
I wish I would've never believed
You telling me the things I lack

I am trying so hard
To not care about what you say
I have made it so far
But I just want to give up some days

Here I am in recovery
Doing what I can
Working on this discovery
To fight for who I really am
I wrote this while in rehab and I'm pretty proud of it
