Verse:
A#m C#
I didn′t get a soft place to fall
F#
Didn't get a hand to hold
A#m C#
Learned how to read the silence
F#
Before I ever knew hope
A#m
They were gone before I understood
C# F#
What family was supposed to be
A#m
So I grew up talking to myself
C# F#
Learning how to breathe
A#m
Bills don′t wait on broken hearts
C#
Pain don't care how old you are
F#
You Do what you gotta Do to live, when livin' feels too hard
Chorus:
A#m C#
Ain′t nobody comin′ to save me
F#
That truth hit hard but it's real
A#m C#
Life gave me cards I didn′t choose
F#
Still had to play the hand I was dealt
A#m
I fell down, I got up again
C#
Learned how to fight for my own name
F#
If I make it out of this alive
A#m
It's cuz I saved myself
Verse:
I wore things I won′t defend
Just to keep the lights on
Smiled in rooms that didn't care if my soul was gone
The money came with heavier nights and darker ways to cope
It′s hard to find a way out when survival is the rope
They talk like I had choices
Like I wasn't up against the wall
You don't know what you′d trade for peace
When peace costs it all
Chorus:
Ain′t nobody comin' to save me
That truth hit hard but it′s real
Life gave me cards I didn't choose
Still had to play the hand I was dealt
I fell down, I got up again
Learned how to fight for my own name
If I make it out of this alive
It′s cuz I saved myself
Bridge:
Don't mistake my scars for weakness
Or my past for who I am
I was drowning
Not dreaming
Still I restart my own hand
I look for light in smaller moments
Morning sun, a fire burn
I′m learning how to love the girl who survived what came next
Chorus:
Ain't nobody comin' to save me
But I′m still standing here
Life gave me cards I didn′t choose
Still found strengh to warry tears
I fell down, I got up again
Learned how to fight for my own name
If I'm walking out of this alive
It′s cuz I saved myself
Outro:
I didn't choose this life
But I choose me everyday
