I didn't ask for this pain I got

Maybe I deserved it, maybe not

Well I pushed it all down and I tried to forget

But it hurts so much living with regret


I see your face in my dreams at night

I wake in tears and I cry with spite

Woman you broke me in ways that you'll never know

And everyone tells me to let it go


I been holding on for so long

And I don't know how else to live

Well I want to hate you still but God knows I never will

Move on with my life unless I forgive


It's easy to hold on to the pain you feel

Forgiveness ain't easy but that's how you heal

Bitterness promises relief through revenge

But love is a medicine to make amends


I been holding on for so long

And I don't know how else to live

Well I want to hate you still but God knows I never will

Move on with my life unless I forgive


I been holding on for so long

And I don't know how else to live

I want to hate you still but God knows I never will

Move on with my life unless I forgive
