Selfish! Lyrics

Things don't always appear as they seem

I wonder how many shadows I can't see

In front of me?

It's not okay if I'm being honest

Been going on far too long and

I've had enough of it

I need to be more selfish

Pay attention to my needs

Your emotions I can't bear to carry

Load's too burdening

I'm learning to get better

Accepting my responsibilities

Pay more attention to my needs

I need to be more selfish

I need to be more selfish

Mmm

I'm not sure when I became okay

Letting everyone's lives get in the way

Get in the way

I don't know what's happening

I don't know what's going on

All I know is that my focus

Is on me

Imma do what I want

Imma do what I please

Stand ten toes down

For my babey, LEEZY

I need to be more selfish

Pay attention to my needs

Your emotions I can't bear to carry

Load's too burdening

I'm learning to get better

Accepting my responsibilities

Pay more attention to my needs

I need to be more selfish

I need to be more selfish

I need to be more selfish

If it feels wrong, I won't do it

I mean what I say and I say what I mean

Trust my instincts, know when to let go

I'm no longer afraid of the word no

You have a choice, just to be clear

Tides have been shifting, the moment is here

I am mine before anyone else's

I need to be more selfish

I need to be more selfish

Pay attention to my needs

Your emotions I can't bear to carry

The load's too burdening

The load's too burdening

I need to be

I need to be

Want to be great, want to be free

Oh ohh ohh

Oh ohh ohh

Both of those things start within me

I need to be

I need to be

Want to be great, want to be free

Oh ohh ohh

Oh ohh ohh

Both of those things start within me

I need to be

I need to be

Want to be great, want to be free

Both of those things start within me

If it feels wrong, I won't do it (No I won't, no I won't, no I won't)

I mean what I say and I say what I mean (Yes, I do, yes, I do, yes, I do)

You have a choice, just to be clear

Tides have been shifting, the moment is here
