Lyrics
Intro
Yeah
Mm, mm
I’m finally breathing now
Verse 1
Phone lights up, but I let it ring
Got my name in rooms you’ve never seen
Mirror talks, yeah it tells the truth
I’m becoming someone I outgrew you
Late nights turn to early wins
Champagne stress under my skin
I don’t post what I’m breaking through
Some victories don’t look good on you [Pre-Chorus]
I used to bend just to feel chosen
Fold myself into your focus
Now my heart’s not up for rent
I learned what freedom meant
Chorus
I’m off the hook, and I like it here
No one pulling on my fears
I don’t miss what almost was
I choose myself, I choose my blood
I’m off the hook — does it hit your pride?
Seeing me fine on the other side
You held me once, but I cut the line
I’m off the hook, and I’m doing fine
Verse 2
How many masks can a girl wear
Before the mirror doesn’t stare back?
I played the part, I paid the cost
Found myself in what I lost
They say love’s supposed to hurt
But pain don’t always mean it’s work
I want a life that lets me grow
Not a cage dressed up as gold [Pre-Chorus]
I still believe in butterflies
Just not the ones that steal my spine
If it clips my wings, I’m gone
I won’t beg to belong [Chorus]
I’m off the hook, and I like it here
No one steering my career
I don’t ache for your touch
I finally feel like enough
I’m off the hook — does it mess you up?
That I don’t need your love?
You had a chance, you crossed the line
I’m off the hook, and I’m doing fine
Bridge
I love roses, I love skin
I love nights where we dive right in
But I love waking up alone
Knowing everything I own
If I cry, it’s not regret
It’s old ghosts I finally let
When one door shuts, the silence sings
Says “Girl, you’re made for bigger things”
Final Chorus
Yeah, I’m off the hook (off the hook)
No apologies, no excuses
Yeah, I’m off the hook (off the hook)
I don’t shrink to be your future
I’m off the hook, and I love this view
All the space I never knew
You had me once, now look at me
I’m off the hook — nobody owns me
Outro
Mm
Nobody owns me now
Yeah
