JAZMINE SULLIVAN–INSPIRED MANTRAS & AFFIRMATIONS SELF-WORTH THAT WON’T BEND I am done shrinking so other people feel tall. I am too valuable to beg for love. I am learning to leave before I lose myself. I am not an option — I am the standard.

Lyrics

Chorus

I am done shrinking so other people feel tall

No more folding my wings for anyone at all

I am too valuable to beg for love I already hold

I lay my truth on the table, let my story be told

Post-Chorus

I won't bend, I won't fold

I won't bend, I won't fold

Verse 2

Learning to leave before I lose my soul

Walking out quietly, holding onto my gold

You can't make me believe I'm anything less

I am not an option — I'm the bar, I'm the test

Pre-Chorus

You said I was too much, told me I should change

But I'm breaking those chains, loving myself again

Chorus

I am done shrinking so other people feel tall

No more folding my wings for anyone at all

I am too valuable to beg for love I already hold

I lay my truth on the table, let my story be told

Post-Chorus

I won't bend, I won't fold
