Moving On
S.D.J. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Putting myself first
Getting rid of what doesn't work
Giving my all to what I love
My angels have shown me
Shown me I am worthy
Worthy of the blessings from above
I have decided that I'm moving on
I'll no longer stay where I don't belong
It hurts me to the core but I am staying strong
Things that broke me in my past
Yea they are dead and gone
I am moving on
I am letting go
Of what's not for me
Releasing all that broke me
I am moving on
I am letting go
Of what's not for me
I'm stepping in my destiny
Energy
I feel energy
That isn't matching mine
Can't give no more of my time
I'm done with the things that have held me back
Gotta get myself together get back on track
Picking up the pieces of a broken heart
Same game new players
I gotta press restart
I am done with the things that have held me back
Living my life like it's golden
Getting back on track
I have decided that I'm moving on
I'll no longer stay where I don't belong
It hurts me to the core but I am staying strong
Things that broke me in my past
Yea they are dead and gone
I am moving on
I am letting go
Of what's not for me
Releasing all that broke me
I am moving on
I am letting go
Of what's not for me
I'm stepping in my destiny
Sick of talking bout the same ol thang
It ain't serving me so something's gotta change
I tried to work it out but it remains the same
I gotta move on
I gotta let go
There's more to gain
I thought that history would keep me here forever
I freed myself, I'm moving on to something better
I gotta move on, no going back no never
It hurts it hurts, I've learned the hurt will lead to treasure
I am moving on
I am letting go




Of what's not for me
I'm stepping in my destiny

this was my first time listening DJ Raqi's Secret File. I just played it and listened because I'm answering my module. then later on I found myself crying.
its hard to forget the person that you truly love and make yourself very special, I wish you surpass the loneliness and accept the reality that whatever happened it has a purpose

How to heal and move on

enelyn rivarez

@Kopi&sea F. moving on on a person isn't easy right. for there are two reason to move on. 1st avoid those places, things that might remember you the person you wanted to forget. make your self busy of anything that can help you you to forget him/her. the 2nd one is remembering all the happy moments that you shared to each other and let it be your way to think positively and make it an inspiration to make yourself heal and totally moved on.
if the person you wanted to move on was already passed away, pray for him/her and ask for her/his guidance and help you to surpass that you were going through.
I hope it may help, and I'll pray you to surpass what you wanted to moving on.

Kopi&sea F.

@enelyn rivarez thank you, i really need some one to hear me out

Christina Quiros

Do not ever apologize for how you feel. There’s no way of getting over things like that. As cliche as it sounds, time will heal everything. Embrace the hurt, the way you miss him and every pain in your body. It’s very hard to get over something that once used to be perfect. I am so sorry for your loss. Take care of yourself.

elaaaaa.

I will never stop listening to this kind of stories, mas lalong nagiging special lalo na pag si Dj Raqi ang nag kwento. My god nakaka wala ng stress the same time napapaiyak nalang.

It's true. To move on from a long, especial relationship is difficult unless we do it in accodance with God's guidance over us.

Julce Faith Malubay

My mom has an ex-boyfriend and they were together for almost 9 years. But when we asked her how did she moved-on, she just said "Simple lang, accept the reality."

Nestjasfer Robles

Hindi naman po yata ganun kadali mag move on. Madaling sabihin mahirap gawin. Lahat may process.
