You're Welcome by Alecia Renece
We've all been there before. We're in love, we fall out of love and then your ex-love gets a new love.
You're filled with angst and anxiety, wondering what she's got on you, if she's better than you, smarter, funnier...
You made that man who he is. You feel like you built him up from scratch and now some other girl is reaping the benefits of your hard work and labor.
It's not even that you want him back. You just want a simple THANK YOU.
You wonder why he couldn't be that loving, that kind, that thoughtful and passionate when he was with you. Why didn't he fight to keep you?
Didn't he know that you were a good thing?!
But the truth is, you ARE a good thing, just not the good thing for him. Your worth never went down just because someone else came into the picture.
Maybe the thoughts Jealousy and Envy whisper to you late at night, on Social Media, in friend circles, and worst, in your head and heart... are lies:
You Are Worthy.
It may be that just because he wasn't right for you, doesn't mean you are any less than beautiful, phenomenal, smart, talented, funny, fun, adventurous than the next woman.
Maybe you don't have to compete or tear her down. Maybe you don't have to come up with vile and hurtful things to say to and about her. Maybe she doesn't even know he was trash... and maybe he's not horrible anymore.
And Maybe...Just Maybe you both can have worth... even if he chooses not to see yours anymore. Even if that hurts.
If you can relate to ANY of this... this song is for YOU.

Lyrics
I made you who you are
Now She Has You
(I) Put in all that time
Nothing for her to do
Must Be Nice
Must Be Nice
No, I don't want you back
It's just the fact that she
Gets the best of you
And gives no thanks to me
Hey you, hey you, hey you
You're welcome
You're Welcome
You're Welcome
If I want to Be Free
I have to let it go
Thought I wasn't Good Enough
It was just his ego
Give Me a break
It's so hard when you're insecure
We both can have worth
Though he can't see mine anymore
I mean no disrespect,
I'm sure you can understand
Losing Love is so hard
When you built it all by hand
He's with someone new
And you wonder how she qualifies
Is she better than you
Did she earn your prize?
I don't even want him
Why do I think about him?
He was just a lesson
Although I've been second guessing
And now that he's your blessing
(It) Don't mean I'm less than
I don't even want him
Why do I think about him?
