That's Not Me

Original

Said she gave you everything. She broke her back to be what you need.

I tried so long to just compete.

Can't take no more, it's inside of me. I'm letting you know this can't go on, this one way street.

I'm walking alone. This time I'm breaking free. I'm gonna find me.

I can't sit and be passive. Won't tolerate no more, that's it.

I tried so hard to be what you wanted me to be.

If you can't be fifty-fifty then you know that it don't fit me.

I can't give you all that's in me 'cause, baby, that's not me. Don't want you to think that I'm selfish.

I'm just sick of your one-trackness.

If you can't meet me halfway, I think it's time that you be on your way. I love you but I can't baby you.

If it's your mama you want, you know just what to do.

I looked in the mirror every day. I saw myself fading away.

You're trying to mold me into her. I loved you so I put you first.

But I can't live my life this way.

Now I'm strong enough to leave you now. So you better treat me right.

Don't wanna throw it all away. So baby, here's your last chance.

Don't wanna fight with you but I need more of you.

Give me all or it's the end. I can't sit and be passive.

You were so mean, so ungrateful. At night I cried so many times.

Tell me how could you go hurt me when you know one day you'll miss me?
