I Won'T Cry For You No More

I won't shed anymore tears. I had it with your lies. I'm through being your stepping-stone. This is my goodbye. The abuse I took all those years describes the person that you are. I let you push me to a certain level, but now you've gone too far. Pack up your things and go. There is no more me and you. I said it one time before, do I need to repeat that we're through? Go find somebody else to mess over. Let them find out what a person you are. You're lower than dirt... what a fall! You use to be my star. You want me to cry a river, but I won't give you the satisfaction. You thought I'd never leave you. You thought I was all talk, no action. "You'll never find nobody better than me," you laughed and you taunt. There is more fish in the sea and I'll catch anyone I want. I do not hate you. I'm a better person than that. If it wasn't for you, then I wouldn't be where I'm at. So thank you for making me wiser. I will not get depress. I will not stay angry at you nor love you any less. Because of you I'm stronger. I can stand the test of time. I am taking back my life. I am taking back what's mine. My self-esteem you cannot have. My pride you will not take. What you see is a changed man...I've been redeemed this day. Once you were my lover. You were all I was asking for. Now you're a thing of the past and I won't cry for you no more.
