I Owe You Nothing

I Owe You Nothing is a boundary song.
It was written from the moment when explanation ends and self-loyalty begins. This piece speaks to the exhaustion of having to justify one’s pain, identity, limits, or survival to people who benefit from misunderstanding.
 
This song does not ask to be heard correctly.
It does not seek agreement.
It does not soften itself to be accepted.
 
Instead, I Owe You Nothing names a truth that often comes after trauma: that access is not automatic, silence is not owed, and survival does not require performance. It acknowledges the cost of carrying other people’s discomfort and chooses to stop paying it.
 
Aligned with Nothing Is Required of You, this song offers sound as witness rather than resolution. There is no directive here — only a steady refusal to continue abandoning oneself for the sake of peace, approval, or belonging.
 
You are not required to listen all the way through.
You are not required to relate.
You are not required to understand.
 
The song remains either way.
 
I Owe You Nothing exists for those who have reached the edge of endurance and chosen themselves — quietly, firmly, without apology.
