The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm a do my thing

I'm a do, I'm a do, I'm a do my thing

I was born at the end of december

Not afraid that the cold of the winter

Would keep me inside, hey

Ever since mama left me at home

I had to search for a class of my own

And go there in my mind

I had a dream like dr. king

I had a song I had to sing

And I knew it wasn't make believe

When the teacher said to me

Baby, who do you wanna be

Said I don't know but I know that I'm a gonna leave

I'm so gone (just you)

All I do is walk alone (just me)

I'm so gone (just you)

I can make it on my own (just me)

Alright

Everybody wanna follow the crowd

But I belong in the front singing loud

And I'll go solo, hey

But the fame is a hell of a temptress

Not my wife but I guess she's a mistress, oh

Can I let her go

She can play tricks on your mind

Have you leave your soul behind

She's turned some niggas out

But she can't keep her spell on me

She can't keep back mailing me

I'm free to leave, to be just me

I'm so gone (just you)

All I do is walk alone (just me)

I'm so gone (just you)

I can make it on my own (just me)

So many (so many people tryna be somebody else)

Tryna be somebody else (or whatever sells)

I've got my own lane (I've got my own lane, I'm driving by myself)

Hope you wish my well

I'm so gone (just you)

All I do is walk alone (just me)

I'm so gone (just you)

I can make it on my own (just me)

I'm so gone (just you)

All I do is walk alone (just me)

I'm so gone (just you)

I can make it on my own (just me)

If I fall then let me fall, yea yea yea

Oh cause I only got myself to blame

Oh it's just me

All I do is walk alone
