I ain’t gonna live the rest of my life
as somebody I’m not!

Yesterday I was trynna be "so good"
trynna speak carefully
but I was still misunderstood

I ain’t gonna spend the rest of my life
living someone else’s dream
Other peoples plans don’t work for me
no matter how good they seem

I’m not gonna rob myself,
even though it may hurt another
I think being honest about the situation
is better than being an half-assed lover

I ain’t fixin to mess around and look
back on 40 years of regret
Even if I’m alone, with the Spirit to guide
I’m gonna claim what I’m bout to get
