Текст пісні
I've been chasing peace down dead-end roads
Trying to outrun things I should've known
Had some nights I stayed too proud to call
Yeah I learned the hard way how to fall
I tried holding on when it was gone
Tried being strong when I was wrong
Every crack in me still tells the truth
About the man I had to become to move
I don't need a rewind
I don't need an excuse
Every mile behind me
Was a step toward you
I'm better than I was
Even when it broke me down
Yeah I learned who to trust
Learned how to stand my ground
I still got scars, still got flaws
Still feel it when I love
But I'm standing here now
Better than I was
I've been burned by words I believed
Lost myself trying to be what they needed me to be
Had to learn that pain don't define
The heart you protect or the strength you find
I stopped looking back just to see
Who I was and who I used to be
Every lesson left a mark somehow
But it all makes sense right now
I've made my peace with the past
By walking it through
Learned every scar had a reason
Even the truth
I'm better than I was
Even when it broke me down
Yeah I learned who to trust
Learned how to stand my ground
I still got scars, still got flaws
Still feel it when I love
But I'm standing here now
Better than I was
I ain't saying I don't fall apart
I just know I don't stay there long
Every wrong turn played its part
In showing me where I belong
I'm better than I was
Even when it broke me down
Yeah I learned who to trust
Learned how to stand my ground
I still got scars, still got flaws
Still feel it when I love
But I'm standing here now
Better than I was
Yeah I'm still learning who I am
But I know who I'm not
And I wouldn't change a thing
About the road I walked
I'm better than I was
