Said I'm too young
And so he took me for a fool
Selling me lies, but wore a disguise
My mom warned me 'bout you

He said I was naïve
You underestimate me
In this journey of life, I learned from the games
That he loved to play

But now I'm stronger
Without you, I'm feeling much lighter
Think you're older so you're right
I know I'm young, but I wasn't born last night

Oh, no, he mistook my youth for ignorance
And truth for innocence, thought he took my light
And wouldn't survive
But I'm still alive
He said I was too green
So why should he listen to me?
But soul don't have an age, I've been through the pain
And I'm not ashamed

Now, now I'm wiser
My future's looking much brighter
Now that you're out of my life
Now that you're gone, I can finally sleep at night
Oh, no

And I found some peace in the pain
And I found my way through the rain
I'm a fighter
Listen to me, I'm a fighter
Oh, no, won't take my pride or take my name
'Cause I've always found the light in the dark
In the dark

Now I'm better
Don't bother sending no letters
Put me through hell, I survived
Now that you're gone, I can finally see
I see clearer
Love what I see in the mirror
Remember how you made me cry
But now that you're gone, I can finally see the light
The light, the light

I finally see
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh
