Let them talk

Look

I’m tired of the gossip, tired of the lies,

People love opinions, never look me in the eyes.

Actin’ like they know me ’cause they saw a single fall,

But they never see the climb, never see me stand tall.

They judge from the surface yeah, that part’s cheap,

Try walkin’ through my storms, bet you wouldn’t last a week.

They think they can read me, but I’m deeper than the night,

I got pain you couldn’t handle, I got scars you couldn’t fight.

Talk behind my back?

Congratulations, that’s brave.

Say it to my face

I’ll wait.

Oh wait…

You never came.

I learned to let the noise fade, let the truth be my defense,

’Cause their words don’t pay my bills, don’t define my intelligence.

You think you know my story…

But you don’t know anything.

You heard rumors—

I lived them.

Let them talk, let ’em point, let ’em break what they can’t see,

I don’t owe nobody nothin’, I’m just tryna set me free.

They can twist every word, throw my name into the dark,

But I rise above the whisper ’cause they never knew my heart.

I’m done livin’ for their noise, done beggin’ them to stop

If they need me for a story,

fine…

let them talk.

I used to take it personal, used to feel the blade,

Used to care about opinions from the people who betrayed.

But now? I’m movin’ different

I protect my peace,

I don’t chase validation,

I don’t beg for relief.

I got battles you don’t see, I got demons you can’t name,

But I’m walkin’ through the fire while you play your petty games.

Go ahead, keep talkin’ you just feed my flame,

You remind me who I am, not the person that you claim.

I don’t break anymore, yeah I bend but I stand,

I don’t need a hundred people tryna tell me who I am.

So save your little stories, save the drama, save the spit,

Because the ones who talk the loudest

are the ones who can’t commit.

Let me say this gently

your opinion ain’t a fact.

You talk about my life

’cause you ain’t livin’ your own

and that’s that.

You don’t know my darkness,

you don’t know my fight.

You don’t know the nights I nearly gave up

just to make it to the light.

So speak if you must…

But you’ll never touch my core.

I’ve survived too many battles

to care about your noise anymore.

Let them talk, let ’em point, let ’em break what they can’t see,

I don’t owe nobody nothin’, I’m just tryna set me free.

They can twist every word, throw my name into the dark,

But I rise above the whisper ’cause they never knew my heart.

I’m done livin’ for their noise, done beggin’ them to stop

If they need me for a story,

fine…

let them talk.

Yeah…

I heard you.

I just don’t care anymore.
