DON'T NEED YOU Lyrics

Yo, I remember when people told me

"Hey, you won't ever amount to anything!"

Man, that shit's messed up, and I don't get

Why they said that stuff, but it got in my head, uh

And I didn't need that

I got tired of drowning from them in the sand

Acting like a mirage and holding my hand

Cause they just flip and turn on me

And they just slip into their dreams

And I'm left stranded

But I withstand it

They will never understand it

I don't need you

To tell me who you think I am

And I know it's gonna be alright

But I used to think about it day and night, I

I don't know where I'm goin'

I'm just going with the flow, and you

I think you're jealous

Cause I do things for myself, but I'm not selfish

The way I was treated by my peers was hellish

But there was never once a day that I was helpless

And if you don't like me, I couldn't care less

Cause I don't need you

To tell me who I need to be

And I know it's gonna be alright

But I used to think about it day and night, I

I don't know where I'm goin'

But one day, I'll show them

I don't need you

I don't need you, woah-ooo

I don't need you, woah woah

I don't need you, woah

I only need myself
