[Intro]
The sun is up, the road is clear
Reaching for you
You're wide awake, I'm fast asleep
But I know what's on your mind, what's in your head
Just don't come back for me to save you
[Chorus]
Go if you want
'Cause I'll be fine here on my own
Take it all if you have to
I can make my own new home
[Verse 1]
Yeah
She broke up with him, said "He don't deserve me"
Independently said I don't need a man to help me firstly
Worst part for her is when she left, she lost the car keys
Months go on, yeah, she's doin' the daily
Thinks about him here and there
He got a new girl with the name Cher
She's actin' like she doesn't care
But deep down, back then she thought they'd never get there
Future plan, months ago, the present was so unprepared
Little did she know if she was still there, he never would have gotten here
But they say what doesn't kill you makes you that much stronger
That's the truest shit
Life's just a curvy road that we gotta learn to bend with
Life's just a bitch that we'll never be friends with
And if she is—the chances are you sold your soul
Life's no fun when your heart has gone cold
So you could be fake and make so many other same mistakes
Or you could keep your feet in place instead of countin' the cake
[Chorus]
Go if you want
'Cause I'll be fine here on my own
Take it all if you have to
I can make my own new home
[Verse 2]
Years go on, yeah, she's off in college
Makin' sure to find out your aspects of a life [?]
She's doin' her no matter if the world is there to watch it
She gets home after a late night with her friends out on the town
Still lookin' for a man that's as nice as her wedding gown
Jumps on the couch, grabs the remote, flips the TV on
Choosin' between TLC and MTV to see what's on
Music awards, got some white rapper interview chat
Must be lame 'cause that kid on stage ain't even black
Flips it back, whoa now, wait a second, damn
Who the fuck was that? She remembers that face
He went to her high school, in fact
Takes a second, has a laugh, retracin' the childhood tracks
In the moment she realizes with her jaw dropped in a gasp
It was the man she gave up on, closed caption read "Abstract"
[Chorus]
Go if you want
'Cause I'll be fine here on my own
Take it all if you have to
I can make my own new home
