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.
Said you're waiting on me to change
What you doing that for?
When I said I'd stay the same, same, same, same, same, same
Same guy I was before
Keep the tide low
Let the river flow
I don't need no alibi (ooh)
I-I-I'll be fine
I'll change, I'll change, I'll change when I want to
Mmm
I'll change, I'll change, I'll change when I want to
And I know, I know, I know
Said you're waiting on me to change
What you doing that for?
You keep counting down the days, days, days, days, days, days
till I shift, till I move, till I improve
till I give you more
Keep the tide low
Let the river flow
I don't need no alibi (ooh)
I-I-I'll be fine
I'll change, I'll change, I'll change when I want to
Mmm
I'll change, I'll change, I'll change when I want to
I'll change when I want to
I'm the same, same, same
Way, way, way
I'll change, I'll change
I'll change, I'll change, I'll change when I want to
Mmm
But I don't really want to
Oh-oh-oh, hmm
What you doing that for? (what you doing that for?)
Said you're waiting on me to change
What you doing that for?
(Ooh)
