I Can Do Better

My friends finally told me what they thought of you I'm shocked to hear them say those things I know they can't be true Speechless, lost for words, thought we'd go all the way I never expected you to cause me this much pain I'm independent when you're not here Stronger despite my fears And it's not weak to be alone I'm even stronger on my own 'cause I-I-I-I-I can do better Oh, I-I-I-I-I can fight harder Oh, I-I-I-I-I can do better Oh I, oh I I can do better I can do better I can do better I can do better You were the one who told me to give you 'bout four months Three years later, you still livin' wit ya mama Makes me second think, "do we get along still... When I'm climbing up that ladder and ya goin' downhill?" I'm independent when you're not here Stronger despite my fears And it's not weak to be alone I'm even stronger on my own 'cause I-I-I-I-I can do better Oh, I-I-I-I-I can fight harder Oh, I-I-I-I-I can do better Oh I, oh I I can do better I can do better I can do better I can do better They say love is blind when you're in it Let the truth soak for another minute Good thing this isn't forever I don't think I can stay here any longer... 'Cause I'm independent when you're not here Stronger despite my fears And it's not weak to be alone I'm even stronger on my own 'cause I-I-I-I-I can do better Oh, I-I-I-I-I can fight harder Oh, I-I-I-I-I can do better Oh I, oh I I can do better I can do better I can do better I can do better I can do better I can do better I can do better I can do better
