Cammy Mikale - Decided Lyrics

Yeah, I have loved and have lost
Forced to slave when I should have been the boss
Gave a soft touch yet I been beat
Spoke words in humility
While one refuse to speak
I gave my all but yet it didn't matter
Accused of one to scatter
When I was the one to gather
Gave a hand, even said nice try
But been ignored, alone, overlooked
Left to die
Ask my ex, I been faithful but been cheated on
I been nice but still yet treated wrong
And ask my momma, I wasn't a bad kid
But I still don't understand what my dad did
I freely gave but still stolen from
Had to hurt to still have feelings
While they just grew numb
And when they were blessed, I celebrated
But when it was my season, yo, they hated
But you know what

I decided to forgive
I decided not to be offended
Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
And I be gone by the time you comprehend it
I decided to forgive
Forgive what you did
Forgive what you said too
I'm moving on, without a grudge
Watch you need me before I need you
I forgive you

I guess I figured out time don't heal the wounded
Just help you cope with the pain your consumed with
So, I went ahead and forgave, check the tense
Apologies don't always come in the proper sequence
So, I forgive again, then again, then again
Cause forgiveness is more than an action
It's a deep-rooted attitude
Expressed to men Godward as a symbol of your gratitude
So, forgive and forget but wait listen first
That's to have the memory but unrehearsed
Forgive or just live as if you did
Cause for me that when happiness appeared
Abba ka dabba
Naw, you can't call me cleopatra
No suicide,
Since I forgave, I'm alive
Hear me breathe
I'm moving on from the past
Yet learning from the last
I am free

I decided to forgive
I decided not to be offended
Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
And I be gone by the time you comprehend it
I decided to forgive
Forgive what you did
Forgive what you said too
I'm moving on, without a grudge
Watch you need me before I need you
I forgive you

You know
Despite how much it may hurt
Keep forgiving
For Christ forgave us

I decided to forgive
I decided, I decided, I decided
I decided to forgive
I decided, I decided, I decided
I decided to forgive
I decided, I decided, I decided
I decided to forgive
I decided, I decided, I decided

I'm moving on, moving on, moving on
I'm moving on, moving on,
I'm moving on, I'm moving on, I'm moving on
I decided, I decided
I decided, I decided, I decided
I decided, moving on
I decided, I'm moving on

I'm moving on
