Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was walkin' 'round the neighborhood with, with my mama
And I could tell she had some shit up on her mind
She turned to me and said
"Mike, don't you wanna meet someone?"
I said, "No, I wanna meet everyone"
[Verse 2]
I wanna get drunk with the punks
And do bump with the king
I wanna creep down the hall
And go to bed with the queen
And when they come for my head
Well, I'll be somewhere at sea
Singing loud, singing proud
It's good to be free
[Verse 3]
'Cause I won't waste another day
Livin' someone else's way
I wanna be happy, I wanna be free
Fuck what they say, I'm doin' me
[Verse 4]
My mama said, "But Mike
Don't you wanna be comfortable?"
I said, "No, I don't want to be comfortable"
I wanna be scared out of my head
And lost out of my mind
I wanna fall in and out of love
A few thousand times
I wanna spend all of my money
On my friends, and on drugs
And I wanna ride around on a horse
And give people hugs
And when I come into town
They'll say, "Oh shit, there's Mike
There's somethin' wrong with that boy
I swear he just ain't right"
[Verse 5]
'Cause I won't waste another day
Livin' someone else's way
I wanna be happy, I wanna be free
Fuck what they say, I'm doin' me
[Verse 6]
My mama said, "But Mike
Don't you wanna have kids?"
"No, I am a kid
And chances are, if you go lookin', mama
You might find some
'Cause my pull out game
Just ain't so hot these days"
And if you find 'em
You tell 'em Daddy said
"Follow no man
Follow the God within
They'll be comin' for your heart real soon
Son, this whole thing is rigged
You're back in the matrix and
You gotta find your own way out"
[Verse 7]
'Cause I won't waste another day
Livin' someone else's way
I wanna be happy, I wanna be free
Fuck what they say, I'm doin' me
[Verse 8]
I won't waste another day
Livin' someone else's way
I wanna be happy, I wanna be free
Fuck what they say, I'm doin' me
[Verse 9]
Ooh, fuck what all them say, I'm doin' me
I'm doin' me, I'm doin' me, I'm doin' me
Me, me, me, me, me, me
Yeah, fuck 'em
