Everybody looking for the quick ride

The secrets to the spotlight

But nobody wanna do the time

They waiting on someone to take em sky high

Sitting on the other side, pretend to live the high life

Who wants to listen

To the ones who need validation

I want to listen

To the ones who don't need

Validation

I gave up impressing

The need for acceptance

I threw away all the nonsense

Said hold up and do my thing

No mistakes, just lessons,

It takes progression

The answer to the question

Don't act like no one but me

Cause I don't need, I don't need, I don't need no Validation

No I don't need, I don't need, I don't need no Validation

Everybody looking for their self worth

Like its an object to find, somebody's got it outside

So let me tell you now you got it backwards

If you're following the wrong signs, you're gonna get lost everytime

Who wants to listen

To the ones who need validation

I want to listen

To the ones who don't need

Validation

I gave up impressing

The need for acceptance

I threw away all the nonsense

Said hold up and do my thing

No mistakes, just lessons,

It takes progression

The answer to the question

Don't act like no one but me
