[Verse 1]
Gotta be my friend and my lover
Gotta be my sister and my brother
You gotta be a helpin' hand
Ah, to catch me when I fall
I hate to put pressure on you
You gotta do it all

[Verse 2]
You got to be my mother and my father
When you see me tryin', you try a little harder
Gotta always be willing to answer when I call
Hate to put pressure on you, baby
But you gotta do it all

[Chorus]
See, I'm not ashamed to say I need you
And I'm not ashamed to say that I need you

[Verse 3]
Be my reason and my rhyme
I'm gonna need you my whole life, whole lifetime
Just lift me up and make me feel ten feet tall
Hate to put pressure on you
You gotta do it all
[Bridge]
Ah, yes
You understand what I'm sayin?
Mm-hmm
I'm gonna tell you one more time

[Chorus]
I'm not ashamed to say that I need you
No, I'm not ashamed to say that I need you
Yes, I do

[Verse 4]
Be my friend and my lover
Be my sister and my brother
I need a helpin' hand sometimes
To catch me when I fall
Oh, I don't mean to put pressure on you
You got to do it all
Don't wanna put pressure on you, baby
You gotta do it all

[Outro]
Gotta do it all
Can't do all this
I'm literally nothin', nothin' without you
Can't think for myself
Can't help myself
I need you
Ah, save my life
Take my hand
