Lyrics

### Intro: [Deep, soulful organ; smoky, gritty male vocals, contemplative mood] ### Verse 1: [Gritty, soulful vocals; minimalistic instrumentation, deep bass] Nobody told me there were rules to this game, The fact that I went into it thinking I had won it all, But now that I think back I hang my head in shame, Because I didn’t realize just how far I could fall. ### Verse 2: [Expressive vocals, light percussion; bluesy guitar, subtle organ] The stories I was told were of fairy tales, To be Prince Charming, a knight in shining armour, Laying down his life for her like she is the holy grail, But those were just stories, fairy tales and glamour. ### Chorus: [Powerful, emotional vocals with gospel harmonies; rich bass, steady drums, soulful organ] Oh, how I thought that I had it all, How shocked I was when I lost it all, If I only knew then what I know now, My life would never have flipped upside down. ### Verse 3: [Soulful vocals, strong rhythm; subtle organ depth] The lesson I learned was to learn to be alone, That it’s ok to be by myself, To be independent and comfortable being on my own, In fact it’s crucial for my mental health ### Chorus: [Powerful, emotional vocals with gospel harmonies; rich bass, steady drums, soulful organ] Oh, how I thought that I had it all, How shocked I was when I lost it all, If I only knew then what I know now, My life would never have flipped upside down. ### Verse 4: [Deep, smoky vocals, bluesy guitar; gospel organ] Before I can love someone else I must love myself, They should be a bonus to my life, not the be-all and end, At all times I should protect my assets, dreams and everything about myself. Because while love is great, it always has an end ### Chorus: [Powerful, emotional vocals with gospel harmonies; rich bass, steady drums, soulful organ] Oh, how I thought that I had it all, How shocked I was when I lost it all, If I only knew then what I know now, My life would never have flipped upside down. ### Outro: [Soulful guitar, soft gospel harmonies, fading organ] ### Final Flourish: [Gospel organ, gentle fade] ### Intro: [Deep, soulful organ; smoky, gritty male vocals, contemplative mood] ### Verse 1: [Gritty, soulful vocals; minimalistic instrumentation, deep bass] Nobody told me there were rules to this game, Went in thinking I had won it all, Now looking back, I hang my head in shame, Didn't realize just how far I could fall. Thought I knew the way to love, thought I had it figured out, But life has a way of showing what we're really all about. ### Verse 2: [Expressive vocals, light percussion; bluesy guitar, subtle organ] The stories I heard were just fairy tales, To be Prince Charming, a knight in shining armour, Laying down his life for her, she's the holy grail, But those were just stories, fairy tales, and glamour. Reality hit hard, broke the spell I was under, Now I see the truth beneath the lies and the thunder. ### Chorus: [Powerful, emotional vocals with gospel harmonies; rich bass, steady drums, soulful organ] Oh, how I thought I had it all, How shocked I was when I lost it all, If I only knew then what I know now, My life wouldn't have flipped upside down. ### Verse 3: [Soulful vocals, strong rhythm; subtle organ depth] The lesson I learned is to be alone, That it’s okay to be by myself, To be independent and on my own, Crucial for my mental health. Finding strength in solitude, rebuilding from the ground, Learning to love my company, the peace that I have found. ### Chorus: [Powerful, emotional vocals with gospel harmonies; rich bass, steady drums, soulful organ] Oh, how I thought I had it all, How shocked I was when I lost it all, If I only knew then what I know now, My life wouldn't have flipped upside down. ### Verse 4: [Deep, smoky vocals, bluesy guitar; gospel organ] Before I love someone else, I must love myself, They should be a bonus, not the be-all and end, Protect my dreams, my heart, and my wealth, 'Cause love is great, but it always has an end. Building walls that guard my soul, yet still, I yearn to share, Knowing now to keep my balance, and show how much I care. ### Chorus: [Powerful, emotional vocals with gospel harmonies; rich bass, steady drums, soulful organ] Oh, how I thought I had it all, How shocked I was when I lost it all, If I only knew then what I know now, My life wouldn't have flipped upside down. ### Outro: [Soulful guitar, soft gospel harmonies, fading organ] ### Final Flourish: [Gospel organ, gentle fade] ### Verse 2: [Expressive vocals, light percussion; bluesy guitar, subtle organ] The stories I heard were just fairy tales, To be Prince Charming, a knight in shining mail, Laying down his life for her, she's the holy grail, But those were just stories, dreams that would fail.
