Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You know

Sometimes, you have to put yourself first

I'm doin' me

[Verse 2]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey

(Yeah) Yeah, yeah

Said I, said I, yeah, yeah (Yeah)

[Verse 3]

Sometimes, as women

We give more than we should to a man

That just don't treat us good, no

Gave him my heart, my time

Did all that I could in the past

To keep him here with me, yeah

[Verse 4]

But now I woke up, open both my eyes up

Realize that I don't need any other

Man, if you can't love me equally

Then you don't need to be with me

[Verse 5]

Nothing more beautiful

Than knowing your worth and finally, yeah, uh

I know exactly what I deserve, ohh

[Verse 6]

I'm doin' me (This time around)

Doin' me, (Don't need you now)

I'd rather be by myself

I won't let your drama hold me down

[Verse 7]

I'm doin' me (This time around)

Doin' me, ('Cause I finally found)

I'd rather be by myself

I'm doin' me, yeah

[Verse 8]

Won't spend another minute wasting my time

On a man, (Oh) hey, that only tells me lies, no

Ain't saying no, no, no, no that I don't need love

But them games, (Yeah) I don't need that in my life, no

[Verse 9]

I'm doin' me (This time around)

Said I'm doin' me

Doin' me, oh, (Don't need you now)

I'd rather be by myself

Said, I'd rather be by my

I won't let your drama hold me down

[Verse 10]

I'm doin' me (This time around)

Doin' me, ('Cause I finally found)

I'd rather be by myself

I'm doin' me, yeah, oh, yeah

[Verse 11]

Now I could pray for you to act right everyday

But it ain't up to me to make you change, hey, yeah, yeah

Life is too damn short to live unhappily

So I'm being selfish putting myself in first place, oh, whoa, oh

[Verse 12]

I'm doin' me (This time around)

Doin' me, baby

Doin' me, (Don't need you now)

I'd rather be by myself

I don't need you now

I won't let your drama hold me down

[Verse 13]

I'm doin' me (This time around)

Doin' me, ('Cause I finally found)

I'd rather be by myself

I'm doin' me

[Verse 14]

I'm doin' me

(This time around)

I'm doin' me

(This time around)

No more crying, going through hell

It's all good, I'm lovin' myself

[Verse 15]

Oh, I'm doin' me

(This time around)

I'm doin' me, I'm doin' me

Yeah, yeah

I'm doin' me

Yeah, yeah
