Guys they always wonder about me (yeah, I hear ya T)

Cause everything I have is my own (I'm feelin' dis)

There's no other way you can doubt me (and I'm listenin')

Before I trust you I'll just be here alone

Can I tell ya, can I tell ya, can I tell ya

Gosh golly dern so you still haven't learned

Well I'll be a damn fool

See cause it's headaches you've honestly earned me

You're jackin' da plan I'm like who are you man

Peter Pan but it's still cool G

Slack off my back slip da hell out

My knee and yo correct dat effect

I'm not feelin dis G

I can depend on myself

I don't need anybody else

To be on my back like that, to be on my back like that

Buys they always wonder what's with me

(Say what, say what, say what)

I never let them get in too close

I have my own control

I can't be bought or sold

And I never have to do what I'm told

Yo ladies are you feelin' what I'm sayin'

Well smoke okey doke as if this was a joke

Cause you think you got balls of the great n' black jaws

But your leg I will poke like an egg crackin' a busted yolk

It's a negative cause I won't pause

Til you truthfully see are you

Listenin' to me til you truthfully

See indendently like I handle myself

I need nobody else

A fist full of fate how much more can I take

This is 6 minus 7 plus 1 ending none you should go to

Where I'm comin' from take your turn tryna teach

A dumb-dumb so it be just a bad memory

Til you truthfully see are you listenin' to me

Til you truthfully see independently

Like I handle myself I need nobody else

I can depend on myself
