I Need

I need
For you stay away
I need
For you to know your place
You need
To stop thinkin bout me
Cause I need

To start thinkin about myself (gotta move on without you boi)
To be in love with somebody else (gotta move on without you boi)
Baby please dont take it personal (gotta move on without you boi)
My life is a one man show (gotta move on without you boi)

As a little girl all I've ever known was love
Apparent in my parents so I guess it's in my nerves
The view I had of growth came in the form of a team
So the prince I had envisioned came in the form of a dream
But dreams turn bad if you don't wake up
Cause reality is not what your mind made up
And truth is life is not a fairytale
Cause a man is not a woman's holy grail

These 25 years I've been growin in a trap
Only complete if I was ever with a man
Now I understand that I can be content
Gotta focus on me uh one hunnid percent like
That means I gotta say no to alla the alcohol
That means I gotta decline everytime he try to call
That means I gotta stop checkin on his Instagram
Cause every time I see his face I feel amenable

Excuse me if it still hurts
Is this what I deserve
Guess the tables must turn
Cause I had uh to learn

Baby girl you can't keep on running from yourself
Facing your fears is much better for your health
Baby girl you don't have go out with a mask
If you need some help all you gotta do is ask

You ain't in this alone
I am right by your side
Feel the pain to let go
Hurt will heal over time
