“Intervention” is Anna Akana’s debut single and music video. This song, reminiscent of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs with a dash of Halsey, takes a deep dive into Anna Akana’s struggles with addiction to alcohol, drugs, partying, gambling, one night stands, and even technology.
[Verse 1]
Since you're already all here
Since you’re all here
Why don't you tell me how it feels?
Tell me how it feels
To be judging like a mother
Are you feeling high and mighty, yeah?
Don't touch me
No, don’t touch me
You're trying to save me
But I got me, yeah
[Chorus]
I don't need no intervention
Oh oh
I don't need no intervention
Oh oh
I don't need no
'Cause it's my call
And it's my bad
So no white walls
And no 12 steps
It’s my decision
It’s my decision
No intervention
No intervention
No intervention
No intervention
No intervention
[Verse 2]
Blacked out
Fell down
Hurt loud
But damnit if I ain't proud
’Cause I know how
To lose it all
To find myself
Go ahead call me a liar
I went to hell
And I came back on fucking fire
You can call me a hot mess
But this is my process
It may not look pretty
But baby this is progress
Gotta start from the bottom
If you want that ascension
Did I forget to mention?
[Chorus]
I don't need no intervention
Oh oh
I don't need no intervention
Oh oh
I don't need no
’Cause it's my call
And it's my bad
So no white walls
And no 12 steps
It's my decision
It's my decision
No intervention
No intervention
No intervention
No intervention
No intervention
[Outro]
Oh oh
No intervention
Oh oh
I don't need no intervention
Oh oh
I don't need no intervention
Oh no intervention no intervention
Uh huh
It's my decision
No intervention
