Born in the light, but I’m lost in the dark,
You gave me your rules, but they fell apart.
Sunday mornings, I’d hide in my room,
While the preacher spoke loud, I felt the gloom.
I hate my maker, can’t you see?
All your love turned to misery.
You say I’m your child, but treat me like a mistake,
In your perfect plan, my heart’s gonna break.
Remember the nights, you said, “Pray it away,”
But those whispered secrets just led me astray.
You drew the lines, but I’m breaking free,
Your Holy Book's not the truth for me.
I hate my maker, can’t you see?
All your love turned to misery.
You say I’m your child, but treat me like a mistake,
In your perfect plan, my heart’s gonna break.
In the dark, I found my own light,
Screaming out loud, “I won’t lose this fight!”
You gave me shame, but I won’t wear it,
This rebel heart? Yeah, I'm gonna share it.
Every "Amen" felt like a chain,
But in my spirit, there’s no more pain.
You thought you knew me, but here’s the twist,
I’ll rise from the ashes, I’ll do it with a fist.
I hate my maker, can’t you see?
All your love turned to misery.
So hear my voice, with the fire I’ll sing,
I’ll break the mold, I’ll wear my own wings.
I hate my maker, but I love who I am,
A girl who fights back, not a part of your plan!
