Said I’m gone close my eyes
Said I’m gon’ live my life
Despite what you think
I’m gone be free I’m a be me

Yeah!

See I ain’t never think I would have a situation where the people around me just envy I must replace them
See I always thought the people that watch me grow
Would want to see me blow fa’sho but little did I know
They ain’t never really wanna see me smiling.
They couldn’t take the fact that I was really shining
And in my heart I knew they was wishing I was stop
Cause they don’t me to rise and be on top.
And all that jealousy and hate
Can be right in front of your face
And it’s gone hurt for you to see
But it ain’t your fault just let it be

So I’m gone close my eyes
And I’m gone live my life
Despite what you think Im’a be free cause Im’a be me.

See everybody wanna have something to talk about
So they pointing their fingers and always running their mouths.
No matter how you try to satisfy someone else giving so much of yourself yo love but it’s never enough.
The more you give them the more want they ain’t happy
And they don’t see all you do to make ’em happy
They don’t appreciate it till you walk away
But you don’t want to hear by now it’s too late.
And all that jealousy and hate
Can be right in front of your face
And it’s gone hurt for you to see
But it ain’t your fault just let it be.

So I’m gone close my eyes
And I’m gone live my life
Despite what you think Im’a be free cause Im’a be me.

What they don’t understand is that Im’a keep livin my life and surviving
Im’a keep pushing and striving and climbing and grinding
Cause ain’t no time to be crying I been providing with the strength to carry my way
And Im’a be ok cause I’m gone live my life my way
And u can say what u wanna say it wont affect the way I’m living I’m winning by being free again

So I’m gone close my eyes
And I’m gone live my life
Despite what you think Im’a be free cause Im’a be me.
