Spent the year tryin' to get you to love me (Get you to love me)

Put your needs high up above me

All night talkin' on the telephone

Listenin' to you cryin' 'bout being alone (Ooh)

Spent the summer tryin' to get you to care (Get you to care)

Bought new jeans and grew my hair (Ooh, ooh)

Called me up when you wanted me around (Ooh, ooh)

But when I needed you, you could never be found

So this year's gonna be about me

Never will I have another reason to doubt me

This year, this year (Ooh-ooh, ooh)

This year's gonna be about me

Never will I have another reason to doubt me

This year, this year (Ooh-ooh, ooh)

Spent the year tryin' to get your attention

All my miles just to make a connection

Runnin' around just to get to you

When I showed up, you had something to do (Oh, oh-oh, oh)

Met your mama and all your friends

Didn't know it was all pretend

Lifted you up, you were bringing me down

But this year's gonna turn them tables around

So this year's gonna be about me

Never will I have another reason to doubt me

This year, this year (Ooh-ooh, ooh)

This year's gonna be about me

Never will I have another reason to doubt me

This year, this year (Ooh-ooh, ooh)

(I'm loving, I'm feeling myself) Ooh, ooh-ooh

(Not worried 'bout anyone else)

(My mind, my body, my health)

(This year, this year)

(I'm turning it all around, nobody gon' bring me down) Ooh, ooh-ooh

(My vision, my mind, my crown)

(This year, this year)

I'm taking what's mine, I'm putting it on the line

This year

Not gonna waste no more time, I'm coming to claim my shine

This year

I threw away all your shit, I'm ready to get my fix

This year

This year's gonna hit my stride, I'm living it, my best life

This year

This year's gonna be about me

Never will I have another reason to doubt me

This year, this year

This year's gonna be about me

Never will I have another reason to doubt me

This year, this year

(I'm loving, I'm feeling myself) Ooh, ooh-ooh

(Not worried 'bout anyone else) Ooh, ooh-ooh

(My mind, my body, my health)

(This year, this year) Uh

(I'm turning it all around, nobody can bring me down) Ooh, ooh-ooh

(My vision, my mind, my crown) Ooh, ooh

(This year, this year)
