At 22 years old

They're telling me I'll never make it on my own

That I should leave it all behind & let it go

And Let the industry decide my tomorrow

But I can feel it & I know I'm getting close

I stand on stage with people singing words I wrote

I feel the music make its way throughout their bones

So if I give it all up now I'll never know

You know that I can't be anybody else

I feel better when I know myself

You keep telling me I need your help

I won't ever need your help

No I'll never need your help

At 23 years old

Took just under a year to prove them wrong

Now they decide they want to listen to my songs

And Take the credit for what I've already done

But everything I've done so far I've done alone

And Now they're left out leaving missed calls on my phone

Trying to cut in line for tickets to my show

I guess I knew I had it in me all along

You know that I can't be anybody else

I feel better when I know myself

You keep telling me I need your help

I won't ever need your help

No I'll never need your help

I was told when I was 13

I could do things; others couldn't seem to believe

'Til they met me

That's when I'd retreat, to my dreams

Where I'd see things, others couldn't see

Through a beat, pen & poetry

Now I know I breathe for a reason

Now I know I write from the mind of the teacher

I used to watch the sheep as they wait for a leader

Now I guess they found out who I am

You know that I can't be anybody else

I feel better when I know myself

You keep telling me I need your help

I won't ever need your help

You know that I can't be anybody else

I feel better when I know myself

You keep telling me I need your help

I won't ever need your help

No I'll never need your help
