I don't need you
in my life
Cause I know
my path in life
I don't need no complications
Cause my mind is clear
I ain't caught up
won't give up
I don't you

I always figured we should be close
cause we the look the same
got the same name
(everythang)
But blood ain't enough
nothing's good enough
(for you)
So I'm gonna cut my losses
and move on
(I'll go that way,
you go this way,
don't got time,
don't care what you say)

I don't need you
in my life
don't need your
insults all that strife
I've tried
I've tried
to bridge the gap
but you've gotta
try too

NO MORE!
(no more)
Repeat 4x


Author's Note: I wrote this because I'm pissed off at my extended family for being assholes. It's not whiny teenage angst, just acute and painful observation. I probaly didn't write the verses properly, but I'm too tired to fix it now. Maybe tomorrow.
