"My Own Mind" Lyrics

[Chorus]
I'm me
I don't try to be
Anyone else
But myself
I've been living with me for all these years, so how you gonna come around and tell me how I feel
I know
Who I am
I have not
Been programmed
You don't have your own mind, you're easily bought
But turn around and try to tell me I am lost

[Verse 1]
You try to tell me, who I am and who I wanna be
But darling sweetie, I don't want to be no one but me
You tell me I'm sick, that I need a mental fix
I'm like yeah who you kidding, when are you gonna get to it
Cuz it's you
You're the fool
You have, no clear view
You think, everything, that they say is 100 truth
But where is your proof, why you not findin' out for you

[B-Section]
You let
Them tell you
What to say
And what to do
I see
You follow trends
When you gone learn
When's this gonna end

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
You don't, even read, all you watch is TV
How you gone have a 3rd eye, when you can't even see the light
You are, so blind, 20/200 sight
Then you try to tell me, what is wrong and what's right
I don't need
You coming to me
Tryna teach
Teach me nothing
See this ain't no minstrel show, I can't tap dance with these feet
I have, my own mind, I don't need your psychology

[B-Section]
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I have my own mind, I own it and it's mine
Try that shit on someone else, I don't have the time
I have my own mind, I own it and it's mine
Try that shit on someone else, I don't have the time

[B-Section]
[Chorus]

Yeah
