Wasn't even apologetic, they just left me with a lot of questions
All that bullshit I went through, I can't even say that I regret it
Cuz it made me put in work just from being hurt (hey!)
I just wanna win, and I don't care about being first (tru!)
Cuz I only compete with my reflection (Yello!)


And when I look inside the mirror I don't see you! (tru, hey)
On the highway hanging out the sunroof (ooh, ooh)
I dream about doing what I want to (ooh, ooh)
I look up to God and He approved me, I don't need you!
They almost convinced me I deserve less than I deserve (tru)
Even took a couple wrong turns before I got a turn
I look up to God and He approved me, I don't need you! (hey!)

Now they saying that I'm lucky, that's a lot of nerve (tru)
They ain't see it in my face when I had waterworks (hey)
When I had tears dropping (yeah)
But I still got it (yeah)
So imagine what it's worth (tru)
I could be you too, you don't understand
I could be you too, you don't understand
I could be you too, you don't understand
I could be you too, you don't understand
I swear, I swear, yeah (tru)
You think all of this was easy, then you trippin' (then you trippin')
I had my day one n***as treat me like a mistress (like a hoe)
They know I'm strong so they ain't think I was gon' feel it
But I felt that shit! (yeah)
I might be smiling now, but I ain't always felt like this! (nah)
My life told me that I was broke, I told myself I'm rich! (Tru)
I kept on working when I felt like shit
I went so long without a W, that's why my name is spelt like this (Yello!)
Take my name and then they played with it (tru)
Cuz they ain't seen when it was holes all in my sneakers, it was way different
Back before the yellow hair when I had waves in it
Now I'm on a whole different wave length

Y'all got me offended, how y'all gon' treat me like I ain't that n***a
You think I sacrificed my life for you to paint that picture?
Treated me like I was small, then I came back bigger (tru)
Don't compare me to no other n***a winning (why?)
Cuz I can do that too! (hey, tru)
Everything that I imagine I make happen, I ain't giving up
That's you! (that's you)
I can run a marathon in your shoes

And when I look inside the mirror I don't see you! (tru, hey)
On the highway hanging out the sunroof (ooh, ooh)
I dream about doing what I want to (ooh, ooh)
I look up to God and He approved me, I don't need you! (tru, yeah)
They almost convinced me I deserve less than I deserve (tru)
Even took a couple wrong turns before I got a turn
I look up to God and He approved me, I don't need you! (hey!)
