What I Need

[Verse 1]
Something inside is rising
And I can't hide it, it just occurred to me
Couldn't ever really seem to find it
I was blinded by what I was told to be

[Chorus]
I tried to rule the world
With guilty hands
I tried to make amends
Oh, but I can't
I tried to live that life
The best that I could
But it's so hard to love yourself
When you don't think that you should

[Post-Chorus]
So I'll give myself some peace
Something's come over me
That nothing's what I need

[Verse 2]
Something inside is calling
And now I'm talking to the man I used to be
Oh, love has many different colors
You can't paint no other
It's only your mastеrpiece

[Chorus]
I tried to rulе the world
With guilty hands
I tried to make amends
Oh, but I can't
I tried to live that life
The best that I could
But it's so hard to love yourself
When you don't think that you should

[Post-Chorus]
So I'll give myself some peace
Something's come over me
Nothing's what I need, yeah
Oh, nothing's what I need, oh
Nothing's what I need, yeah
Oh, nothing's what I need, yeah
Yeah

[Chorus]
I tried to rule the world (I'm ready)
With guilty hands (I'm ready)
I tried to make amends (I'm ready)
Oh, but I can't (I'm ready)
I tried to live that life (I'm ready)
The best that I could (I'm ready)
But it's so hard to love yourself (I'm ready)
When you don't think that you should (I'm ready)

[Post-Chorus]
So I'll give myself some peace
Yeah, something's come over me
That' nothing's what I need
Oh, nothing's what I need
Oh, oh
