My Hearts Resolution

For many months, I’ve tried to fix things
But now my heart says it’s time for me to move on
I will forgive and do my best to forget
It’s certainly time to dance to a new song

I’m letting them hold their grudges
I hope it keeps them warm at night
I refuse to sink to the levels of immaturity
And refuse to fight in their fight

Punches have been thrown, my bruises are healing
I’ve been lied too and scammed in the worse way possible
What I though were blessings were wolves in sheep’s clothing
No more are my eyes covered with wool

So Happy New Year to me, time to create a new beginning 
I’ll be out dancing, while they sleep with the grudges they hold
I truly hope it keeps them warm at night
Because the place used to be in their lives is now grown ice cold
