I can tell that you don't ever want to trust again,
Cause every time you trusted it just left ya hurt/
And I can tell that you don't ever want to love again,
Cause when they leave all you do I second guess ya worth/
Now you're choking on your tears and you can't breathe/
Cause all the pain is coming at you like a stampede/
And even after all of that you feel you cant leave/
But don't go changing who you are to fit a mans needs/
It's not fair I know it isn't right/ but you were
Meant to shine bright don't you dim ya light, live ya life/
Because you're perfect how you are don't you change a thing/
And baby you were made a queen but he aint a king/
So why you trippin when it aint a thing?/ One day you'll
Find someone who will make it seem like every days a dream/
Just be honest with yourself that you're truly done/
And make your ex man jealous of who you become/Tell me who it is you are,
You say you got a big ole heart,
But that it's filled with scars,
And that you wanna die cause you're tired of the pain/
Ill tell you who it is you are,
I know you're a shining star,
And that you been fighting hard,
And that you're gonna rise from the fire and the flames/
See I know who you won't be,
At least not anymore with all that confidence/
Girl I can see the beauty that you don't see,
And you deserve someone who doesn't call it quits/
Not someone who puts you down like you're incompetent/
See that's why you feel uncomfortable with compliments/
Cause you put up a wall, cause you don't know who's fake now/
You don't know whos gonna build you up or make you break down/
And you don't want to risk it you will not relive it/ and that's
Why you built a barrier to make sure that nobody visits/
And I realize it hurts and that this time is worse/
But I know you were meant for more so just realize your worth/
Its not determined by a man or even by the church/
Its determined in yourself so look inside and search/
You got more power than you think don't let a man define you/
And I promise I will stand behind you/
See he was busy tryna burn you down with a couple matches/
But you are like a phoenix rising from the ashes/
And becoming a better you/ someone
That you never knew, girl it was something you were meant to do/
All the pain and the flames made you stronger/
Not whenever it gets in your way you will conquer/
All I speak is truth really hope that you believe this/
So when you're in the fire just remember you're a phoenix/
I'll tell you who it is you are,
I know you're a shining star,
And that you been fighting hard,
And that you're gonna rise from the fire and the flames/
