I DON'T NEED NOBODY

Okay, My name is Beeloo
I had this vision ever since I was little
They tried to bring me down, but every time I didn't hear though
I was put in foster care, I forgive so it's okay though
Suicidal thoughts, God seen my broken halo
I started doing drugs, I couldn't find my escape hole
Pitch black tunnel vision, I was trying to find my way out
I finally seen the light, now you're going see what I'm about
If I ever learned a lesson, I can learn through the drought
Without God I'm not anything, so I'm not trying to live without
I would runaway from placements, I would choose my own routes
Sleeping on someone's couch, I pray God when I'm in doubt
I never liked school, cause my head was in the clouds
But I put myself in college, and ima make myself proud
I started from the ground, I didn't get no discounts
Blessings on blessings, and ima make this song count, yeah

I don't need nobody
I'm my own shawty
I put myself in college
I did it on my own, I don't need nobody else now
I don't need nobody
I'm my own shawty
I put myself in college
I did it on my own, I don't need nobody else now

Okay
I'm done with my assignments, it's ratchet for the weekend
Give a damn what you're thinking
If you're not paying for my bills, get the hell out of my business
And I'll say it in Spanish so you could recognize both languages
Si no pagas mis billes, que te importa mi vida
Hago lo que quiero porque esta vida es mia
Son buenos pa juzgar, y siempre me critican
Sus hijos me admiran, y quieren hacer como yo un día
On the run with my sista, so we ain't sleeping
We got a stay up, cause people really creeping
They want to see me fall, but I beat the statistics
So many closed doors, but ima always stay optimistic
God's sending me blessings, but ima always stay ambitious
I came this far, like a ran in the olympics
They tried to cancel me, but I'm too artistic
Yeah I beat the odds, but I'm just being realistic, yeah

I don't need nobody
I'm my own shawty
I put myself in college
I did it on my own, I don't need nobody else now
I don't need nobody
I'm my own shawty
I put myself in college
I did it on my own, I don't need nobody else now

Okay, this is too all my girls in foster care trying to make their ends meet
All while trying to get their degree
I see you, keep your head up, don't give up
And my boys, oh yeah I see you too
It may get hard, but you know you need to push through
But we're here now, living our dreams to the fullest
So can you
Yeah
Come on
Yeah

I don't need nobody
I'm my own shawty
I put myself in college
I did it on my own, I don't need nobody else now
I don't need nobody
I'm my own shawty
I put myself in college
I did it on my own, I don't need nobody else now

Say what?
Oh, I thought a hater said something
Yeah
