Focus On Myself
I just gotta focus on myself
'Cause, try as I may I know I cannot change no one else
I just gotta focus on myself
'Cause I can't change nobody else
You know that I done tried with you
But, it's like a rollercoaster ride with you
And it's like, there ain't no winnin' side with you
We're both just signin' on to lose
And I don't know if I could do - If I should do that
I should pull back
Stop kiddin' myself
Look at all the facts
Look at how you treat me and look at how you act
I've been with someone who wasn't ready for me
And I've had enough of that, yeah
Don't wanna feel the pressure
Don't wanna give you lectures
I am not a professor
I don't wanna teach you how to love
I want someone who's ready
To love me the way I'm expecting
And if you think I'm asking for too much
Let me focus on myself
'Cause, try as I may I know I cannot change no one else
I just gotta focus on myself
'Cause I can't change nobody else
Don't get me wrong I know we all come with some damage
But the rest of us seem to manage
Don't get with me and make it my responsibility
To go back and make sure that all your wounds are bandaged
You need to be healed when you step to me
You need to be ready to give the love that you expect from me
You need to be able to communicate effectively
Or, disrespectfully, don't you even check for me
Don't wanna feel the pressure
Don't wanna give you lectures
I am not a professor
I don't wanna teach you how to love
I want someone who's ready
To love me the way I'm expecting
And if you think I'm asking for too much
Let me focus on myself
'Cause, try as I may I know I cannot change no one else
I just gotta focus on myself
'Cause I can't change nobody else
'Cause, try as I may I know I cannot change no one else
I just gotta focus on myself
'Cause I can't change nobody else
You know that I done tried with you
But, it's like a rollercoaster ride with you
And it's like, there ain't no winnin' side with you
We're both just signin' on to lose
And I don't know if I could do - If I should do that

I just gotta focus on myself
'Cause I can't change nobody else
