Old Me

[Verse 1]
Got some baggage so I took it to a new place
Had to take a minute just to get my shit straight
Now they call me by the letter of my first name

I don't ever really talk about my home life
Didn’t wanna trade a chain in for a bow tie
So my family is calling me a lowlife
Low life

[Pre]
And I could use a win
Just want 'em to like me
I try to keep my head up when it doesn’t seem likely
And I know I got some darkness and some demons inside me

[Chorus]
So I gotta tell 'em goodbye
Goodbye
Tell 'em
Cuz imma do what I want
I think I’m gonna start a new life
New life
Tell 'em
You want the old me?
Well I left him behind

[Verse 2]
Everybody wanna tell me who I am now
But I’ve always been the type who’s gonna stand out
I don’t give a fuck if you don’t understand now

Ma I love you but I can’t pick up your FaceTime
I don’t wanna hear you worry 'bout my waistline
Imma text you later lie and say my phone died

[Pre]
But what if I was wrong
Then why did I risk it?
When everybody told me I was unrealistic
It’s no wonder why they feel like I’ve been growing so distant

[Chorus]
So I gotta tell 'em goodbye
Goodbye
Tell 'em
Cuz imma do what I want
I think I’m gonna start a new life
New life
Tell 'em
You want the old me?
Well I left him behind

[Bridge]
I know
I know
I know
I -- Well I gotta tell 'em baby

I know
I know
I know
I gotta tell 'em baby

Goodbye
Goodbye
Cuz imma do what I want

I said a new life
New life
You want the old me?
HA

[Chorus]
Goodbye
Goodbye
Tell 'em
Cuz imma do what I want
I think I’m gonna start a new life
New life
Tell 'em
You want the old me?
Well I left him behind
