Stop telling me what to do, how to speak, how to feel. I'm not listening to you anymore. You don't control me I am reclaiming my body, my life I am reclaiming me For many years you had me restrained. I listened to every word that left your Lips Like the wind blowing through the trees I listened And I felt, and I heardβ¦. And I hurt. You don't control me. I am reclaiming my body, my life I am reclaiming me And no matter how many times you afflict pain on me, Leaving me bruised and scarred I will not listen. My ears are clogged up to your voice And I will not listen. My feelings you cannot manipulate And I will not listen This mind control you once had over me is pulverized And I will not listen You still try to speak, demanding attention with every word that leaves your pitiful mouth Like you are the teacher and I am the student But is it not time for the student to become the teacher I will annihilate you, extinguish you, nuke and shatter you Until you are the one begging for my forgiveness Until you are the one deal dealing with the pain I dealt with for far too long Until you are the one that everyone abhors. You seeβ¦ I've been dealing with you since the 5th grade. You are the pesky mosquito in my ear that I cannot assassinate. You are always there And I can't eradicate you You don't control me I am reclaiming my body, my life I am reclaiming me. Depression, anxiety I am terminating your hold over me This relationship is deceased. Your words are mute in my ear And I cannot listen.
