[Verse 1]
Sorry if I seem a little strange and my mind is elsewhere
Please, don't feel no type of way, baby, that's just self care
'Cause I'm getting older
And in order for me to sleep at night
I don't, no, I won't answer the phone sometimes, mm-hmm
[Pre-Chorus]
Before I leave this life, I wanna live it, mm
I owe it to myself before I'm finished
When it comes to my heart I get defensive
Off the internet, I connеct to my soul
[Chorus]
Know it might seem a little bit selfish
I can't stop, can't help it
Thе world can be lonely
So I look out for me
Gotta be a little selfish
Can't stop, can't help it
I'll look out for me
'Cause who's gonna do it if I don't? Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Don't always go to the club
I don't wanna be up until the morning (Morning, yeah)
I don't wanna judge but just don’t hit me up if it's not important
'Cause I'm over, bein' overwhelmed and unsatisfied
Pickin' up every piece that is left of my peace of mind (Of mind)
[Pre-Chorus]
Before I leave this life, I wanna live it, mm (Ooh)
I owe it to myself before I'm finished (Woah)
When it comes to my heart I get defensive
Off the internet, I connect to my soul
[Chorus]
Know it might seem a little bit selfish (Selfish)
I can't stop, can't help it (Help it)
The world can be lonely (Lonely, yeah)
So I look out for me (For me)
Gotta be a little selfish (Selfish, yeah)
Can't stop, can't help it (I just can't)
I'll look out for me
'Cause who's gonna do it if I don't?
[Outro]
I need a break before it breaks me (So I'm)
So I'm takin' a drive before it drives me crazy (Ah)
A moment aside to be lazy, oh-oh-oh-oh
'Cause who's gonna do it if I don't? (I don't)
Hey
Ah-la-la-la, da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Ah-la-la-la, da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Ah-la-la-la, da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
