WALK AWAY

Written by Koral Delatierra

You tore me apart, You raided my heart

I did not know when the pain would stop

I couldn’t walk away, I believed what you’d say

I dug up my roots, Lost sight of my truth

I did not know what you would do

If I said not today, You cannot treat me this way

I forgive you  All I want to do is love true

That don’t mean ill stay with you,

I've got to love myself too

I am stronger now, Its not in shame but in reverence I bow

To the divine light within me, I finally see my true beauty

You called me a thief, Shot down my beliefs

You played out on the streets

Where I found you with another woman, another woman

I let you back in, you said never again

I thought it was the first time

Then I found out it was all a lie, it was all a lie

I forgive you  

All I want to do is love true

That don’t mean ill stay with you, Ive got to love myself too

I am stronger now,

Its not in shame but in reverence I bow

To the divine light within me, I finally see my true beauty

And I choose life, I free myself

I finally loved myself enough to walk away

And I choose life and free myself

I realize my life I make it this way

I accepted your lies, Allowed you to brutalize

the very essence of my being

I thought I truly deserved your beatings, How could anyone deserve a beating?

I lost all respect, I began to neglect

My own health and well being

But now I take responsibility and I create things differently

And I forgive you  All I want to do is love true

That don’t mean ill stay with you, Ive got to love myself too

And I am stronger now, Its not in shame but in reverence I bow

To the divine light within me, I finally see my true beauty

And I choose life, I free myself

I finally loved myself enough to walk away

I choose life, I free myself

I realize my life I make it this way
