Careless Lyrics
[Intro]
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
Why do I care?
Why, why do I-
[Verse 1]
Tryna be perfect, yeah
Perfect in your eyes
I know it ain't worth it, nah
But God damn, I try
All of these eyes on me, eyes on me
Is it for love or despising me?
Perfect, yeah, that’s not real life
[Pre-Chorus]
Whatever I say, whatever I do
People gon' talk, ain't nothin’ new
Whatever they say, whatever they do
Whatever, it don't mean it's true
[Chorus]
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
Why am I checking if you checkin' on me?
All of this stressing be messin' wit' me
Why do I care?
Why, why do I—
[Verse 2]
Tryna be okay, yeah
With what I got
I ain't tryna showcase, nah
Something I'm not, yeah
And all of these eyes on me, eyes on me
They never see what’s inside
But that’s okay, uh, taught me so much
[Pre-Chorus]
Whatever I say, whatever I do
People gon' talk, ain’t nothing new
Whatever they say, whatever they do
Whatever it don't mean it's true
[Chorus]
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
Why am I checking if you checkin' on me?
All of this stressing be messin’ with me
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
[Post-Chorus]
I should care less what you think about me
Care less, you ain't losing no sleep
I should care less what you think about me
Why, why do I—
[Pre-Chorus]
Whatever I say, whatever I do
People gon' talk, ain't nothing new
Whatever they say, whatever they do
Whatever it don't mean it's true
[Chorus]
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
Why am I checking if you checkin' on me?
All of this stressing be messin' wit' me
Why do I care?
Why, why do I care?
[Post-Chorus]
I should care less what you think about me
Care less, you ain't losing no sleep
I should care less
What you think about me
Why, why do I—
I should care less what you think about me
Care less, you ain't losing no sleep
I should care less what you think about me
Why, why do I care?
[Outro]
Why, why do I care?
