Forgiveness

[Intro: Miles Canady]
Yeah

[Verse 1: Miles Canady]
I talked to my mom last week
I was panicked over my past decision, making this bad leap
Of faith, cause I was feeling past weak
Not leaving my room for days, losing mad sleep
Cause I’ve been holding my mistakes over my head
Reminders and memories turn into depression & dread
For the future ones that I just might stumble in, self-hatred starts coming in
And I start blaming myself for where it led, she stopped me and said
That I need to be more patient with myself
Thought she didn’t notice I was making cries for help
But then she reminded me that there ain’t no shame in asking
A new perspective that made me go back and
Think of how I treat me, like “I should let myself fail more freely”
I been getting myself ready cause that road don’t look too easy
But something says that sun is worth the showers it brings
Man, forgiveness is a powerful thing

[Hook: Mishael Carter]
Don't you forget this
God as my witness
'Cause it's you who's got a choice
Just erase the filth & noise
Just you, just you forgive you

[Verse 2: Miles Canady]
These days I don’t feel as bad when I remember you
Writing this to you now, but there’s really not much to get into
Realizing now, how you acted is understandable
Regardless of if you loved me, or if you were pretending to
Hurt was all you knew and that translated to us
When you lashed out, I thought that my heart wasn’t vacant enough
To let you in fully, like “that’s why we can’t stay afloat”
So I tried loving hard enough for us both
But honestly, that’s not an option when you tryna make it work
So I gave 150% and got paid in dirt
I’ve been split on saying this cause I know I need to let go
Of this emotional trauma that’s weighing on my mental
Anyways, I made this song that’s like 7 minutes long
About you and how I had to let this out to stay strong
Don’t get me wrong, I still want you to stay away
But for my own sake, I forgive you

[Hook: Mishael Carter]
Don't you forget this (Don't you forget this)
God as my witness (God as my witness)
'Cause it's you who's got a choice
Just erase the filth & noise
Just you, just you forgive you

[Verse 3: Mishael Carter]
Hold on to those words, don't drop a letter
Keep what you've promised, try to feel better
You know who you are, you know what you've
That's why you must go, move on from [?]

[Hook: Mishael Carter]
Don't you forget this (Don't you forget this)
God as my witness (God as my witness)
'Cause it's you who's got a choice
Just erase the filth & noise
Just you, just you forgive you
