lyrics

[Verse 1]
My therapist is telling me all this crazy shit
It's impossible to win with a narcissist
All this time thought I was outta my mind but I was just gaslit
I'll end up the same if I don't get away from it

[Chorus]
You don’t heal the trauma if you don’t face it
You carry it on to the next generation
You gotta end the cycle, you gotta break it
I gotta break it

[Verse 2]
Every Sunday in church I would hear them preach
Screaming from the pulpit, "Jesus saved me!"
Then where the hell was he when I was just a kid?
Letting my innocence be stolen by hypocrites

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know that what you did to me is what was done to you before
Part of my fate was predetermined before I was even born
I can feel it my bloodline, that's what I was put here for

[Chorus]
You don’t heal the trauma if you don’t face it
You carry it on to the next generation
You gotta end the cycle, you gotta break it
I gotta break it

[Verse 3]
I’m nowhere near perfect, no I’m not trying to claim it
Just doing this self work to heal my broken brain and
Trying to find my peace, get sleep, breathe, stay hydrated
Remind myself I’m strong enough, enough to face it

[Chorus]
I won't heal the trauma if I don’t face it
I'll carry it on to the next generation
I gotta end the cycle, I gotta break it
I gotta break it

You don’t heal the trauma if you don’t face it
You carry it on to the next generation
You gotta end the cycle, you gotta break it
Yeah, I gotta break it

I gotta break it, I gotta break it
I gotta break it, gotta break it
