Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities DREA2VALIDD,
Thank you for contacting us. You have come to the right place and we are happy to assist you. We understand you're having an issue signing into messages with a different Apple ID. We can understand why you’d reach out for a solution. To start, you will need to follow this link to deregister iMessage: Deregister iMessage on your iPhone or online. Currently the iPhone links your Apple ID and phone number to that device and you can't receive iMessages. By deregistering iMessage, it will allow you to receive text messages. Once you are out of Account Recovery, you will be able to log into Messages with your Apple ID again.
If you need further assistance after following the link above, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
Best regards.
