I've been talking to the mirror like it's listening
Asking my reflection for forgiveness
Every scar got a story I was living in
Every tear was a lesson I was missing then
I was reaching for love with my hands out (mm)
Try to earn it , try to stand proud (mm)
But the truth came quiet like a slow sound (mm)
I don't need permission just to be found
I was breaking my own heart every night
Telling myself I wasn't doing it right
But I'm still here , yeah , I survived
Still breathing , still choosing life
I love me , I love me
Even when I don't feel worthy
I love me , l love me
When it's heavy , when it hurts me
I love me , l love me
No conditions , no jury
I love me , l love me
I stay , I stay , I stay with me
Had to love , had to hold myself gently
Not everything broken needs fixing
Some days fade , just look like resting
Some nights peace feels like confession
I stopped running from my reflection
Stopped asking the world for directions
There's a light in me still protecting
Even when I've been down my ending
I forgive the girl I used to be
She was just trying to feel free
I don't need the crowd to agree
I'm enough when it's just me
I love me (l love me) I love me
Even when I don't feel worthy
I love me (l love me) I love me
When it's heavy , when it hurts me
I love me (l love me) I love me
No conditions , no jury
I love me (l love me) I love me
I stay , I stay , I stay with me
(I stay , I stay)
(I stay , I stay)
Stay with me
(I stay , I stay)
Oh , I stay(I stay , I stay)
I stay(I stay , I stay)
I stay(I stay , I stay)
I stay with me
