Everybody is out here to make it

Everybody is out in this war

Whatever happened to the creating

Whatever happened to making art

Remember having no expectations

Remember when you followed your heart

I'm just another kid in the basement

Writing love songs

So, why do I gotta fit the profile?

I don't even wanna know how

I'd rather run it on my own

'Cause no-one's gonna love it like I do

They ain't gonna call it like I would

I put my headphone back on for good

And I'ma let go, let go of you

I'd rather be irrelevant for you than to fake it 'cause I want it to be cool

I put my headphone back on for good

And I'ma let go, let go of you

I apologize for my language

I don't wanna blame anyone

But what the fuck was going on

You ain't forgetting about it all

Remember getting goosebumps from your own songs

Only grades were from your own mom

You don't own this shit to anyone

So, remember where you're coming from

So, why do I gotta fit the profile

I don't even wanna know how

I'd rather run it on my own

'Cause no-one's gonna love it like I do

They ain't gonna call it like I would

I put my headphone back on for good

And I'ma let go, let go of you

I'd rather be irrelevant for you than to fake it 'cause I want it to be cool

I put my headphone back on for good

And I'ma let go, let go of you

To all my writers, here's to my writers

You ain't gotta do it for the numbers

Just do it for you

Yeah, you gotta do it for you

To all my sisters and all my brothers

You ain't gotta do it for the numbers

Just do it for you

Yeah, you gotta do it for you

No one's gonna love it like I do

They ain't gonna call it like I would (like I would)

I put my headphone back on for good (for good)

And I'ma let go, let go of you

I'd rather be irrelevant for you than to fake it 'cause I want it to be cool

I put my headphone back on for good (for good)

And I'ma let go, let go of you (of you)
