Cut ‘Em Off

They said blood is thicker than water

But some of y'all drownin' in your own family

Nah I ain't bitter I'm better

Better than the silence the secrets the shame

See I ain't keepin' no peace that costs me my sanity

I ain't loyal to pain just 'cause we share a last name

If I gotta burn bridges to build my peace

Then baby watch me light the match and release

Chain-breaker pain-shaker I don't flinch no more

Cut ties with the lies I ain't cryin' at the door

Toxic love in my veins? I detoxed that flow

Did the work found my worth had to let that go

They gaslight guilt-trip call me ungrateful

But I ain't lettin' no hurt wear a halo

Told me respect but they gave me neglect

Had to flip the script got my soul in check

Had to unlearn love just to love myself

Now I'm givin' out peace like it's generational wealth

Blood don't make you loyal love don't mean abuse

I'm breakin' every cycle I ain't afraid to lose

I cut 'em off and healed my heart that's a W

If peace got a price then I'm sendin' the invoice too

Yeah I chose me now I'm finally free

I don't owe nobody what they never gave me

No fake hugs no we fam in disguise

Sometimes the realest love is sayin' goodbye

Black sheep turned GOAT I wear that crown

Every why you so distant? gets silence now

They built a legacy of pain I burned it down

Now I'm planting seeds of love in my own ground

I'm not cold I'm clear I just stopped the bleed

Didn't come this far to feed what tried to eat me

They said keep the family close but which one

The one that prayed I rise or prayed I run?

Had to cut the cord so my soul could breathe

Now I'm movin' like freedom been owed to me

No more shrinkin' just to keep the peace

I got boundaries now they come with receipts

Ain't no guilt-trips ain't no backtracking

Tried to break me down but I clapped back

Truth hit harder than a 808

So I let go with love and walked away

Chains breakin' soul awakenin'

Had to lose a few to find the truth

I'm not bitter I'm just brand new

Left the fire came out refined

Cut the ties but kept my mind

Now I walk with peace they can't define

A new bloodline built from mine

Blood don't make you loyal love don't mean abuse

I'm breakin' every cycle I ain't afraid to lose

I cut 'em off and healed my heart that's a W

If peace got a price then I'm sendin' the invoice too

Yeah I chose me now I'm finally free

I don't owe nobody what they never gave me

No fake hugs no we fam in disguise

Sometimes the realest love is sayin' goodbye

You ain't disloyal for choosing peace

You ain't broken for walking away

They called it family

But I call it a cycle I refuse to repeat

Sometimes you gotta grieve the living

Mourn what they never were

And accept they may never become

Not everybody deserves a front row seat to your healing

Some folks were only loud in your downfall

But quiet in your recovery

Let them stay silent

See loyalty without reciprocity is just self-neglect

And forgiveness

It don't mean reunion it means release

You don't have to carry the weight of what they couldn't heal

You're not here to fix them

You're here to free you

So if choosing peace means walking away

Walk in your power

And don't you dare apologize for it

You're allowed to outgrow people

Even if you share blood history or a last name

Let the guilt go

Let the narrative go

Let them go

You didn't lose them

You found yourself

And baby that's the real win

That's the W

That's what cutting 'em off was always about
