Be Myself

Why you tryna meddle in my life

When I just wanna be myself

Don’t come around and start fucking with my high

Anything else yes do please tell

I beg your pardon lord

If I didn’t make it clear what I was asking for, yeah

Well only as of late I’ve just started pouring the drink

But stayed sipping from the glass half full now

Probably not worth a round of applause

I guess it’s hardly been a bone dry Jan

But the shit that really matters is that

You’re not passing out on the floor

Or sitting stressing bout your whole life plan

Could do with a little self loving

Like, counting how many skeletons are in the cupboard

Then serving them up with a biscuit and a little cuppa, yeah

Talking it out, certainly we’ve been discussing

About turning it round

From arguments we’ve been stuck in

Surely we could have harmony,

The melodies, kick, snare, rhythm

Was always calming me

As a kid, due to an aversion to shit

Led to slapping a prick and calling that a Freudian slip

Why you tryna meddle in my life

When I just wanna be myself

Don’t come around and start fucking with my high

Anything else yes do please tell

I like my tunes old school like soul train

Strumming on a string call me short haired Cobain

I like a tonic wine, good weed and some good brain

Well you could be a super freak and I could be Rick James

Never put the pen to paper for quick fame

Only to expire like the date on your reg plate

21

Who really gives a fuck

I’ve always been a fan of old beemers, a rolls Royce or an el Camino truck

I’ve never needed much

Just a whisper with kick and snare on a daily

Fingers upon the ivories saying sing to me baby

I think I’m onto a winner

That’s probably why you hate me

Yeah, ha

Some jealousy and envy got the best of your soul

I’ll stay in my lane why don’t you stay in your own

And if you ever need another little reminder

I suggest you simmer down and go replay this song, song, song

Why you tryna meddle in my life

When I just wanna be myself

Don’t come around and start fucking with my high

Anything else yes do please tell

Why you tryna meddle in my life

(Leave me alone I’ve been doing pretty good)

When I just wanna be myself

(It’s not like anybody else really could be)

Don’t come around and start fucking with my high

(Cos I’m not ready for the comedown, down)

Anything else then do please tell

(Can’t imagine there being much now)
