boundaries

Everybody preachin’ ‘bout respect these days, “Set your boundaries up,” yeah that’s what they say, Draw your line in the sand, don’t let ‘em cross, Protect your peace, no matter the cost. But the world stay bendin’, breakin’ its code, Say “no” in public, then fold behind closed doors, We build these walls, then we open the gate, Let the same old chaos walk right back in late. (Verse 2) We teach our kids “don’t let ‘em step on you,” Then we let people slide like it’s nothin’ new, Say we done, then we answer that call, One text later and we forget it all. It’s a cycle, yeah, I see it clear, Standin’ strong… then disappear, We want the world to respect our line, But we keep erasin’ ours every time. (Verse 3) And I ain’t innocent, nah, I’m in this too, Talk a big game, but my follow-through… Kinda shaky when emotions rise, I let things slide I should recognize. Say “I’m done,” then I stay a while, Mask the hurt with a nervous smile, I build a boundary, then tear it down, Hand the power back, don’t make a sound. (Verse 4) See, discipline ain’t just what you say, It’s what you do when it’s hard to stay, When love gets loud, when guilt creeps in, That’s where the real fight gotta begin. It ain’t about bein’ cold or cuttin’ ties, It’s about truth, not comfortable lies, Standin’ firm when your voice might shake, Knowin’ your worth ain’t up for debate. (Verse 5) Imagine a world where we meant what we spoke, No half-set limits, no lines we broke, No “just this once,” no “it’s okay,” No givin’ pieces of ourselves away. We’d heal faster, hurt a little less, Carry less weight on our chest, But change don’t start with what they do— It starts with me… it starts with you. (Verse 6) So here’s my truth, I’m callin’ it out, I’ve been the reason my lines get drowned, I let things pass I should’ve shut down, Gave too much space, then wore the crown… Of exhaustion, hurt, and silent cries, All ‘cause I couldn’t hold my own line. But growth ain’t pretty, it’s raw, it’s real— And I’m learnin’ to stand… and mean how I feel.
