It’s about loving ourself,
we need to look inside and be introspective.
Because that’s where love begins, that’s where love begins.
It’s about loving ourself.
I don’t want to think about,
How you deal, how you work shit out.
I’ve got my friend, I’ve got my life.
Living life without you ain’t no sacrifice.
I don’t want to own you,
I don’t want to please you,
I’m not here to beg you,
I’m just glad to leave you.
I just came to say goodbye. Goodbye.
I am done and it’s no lie yeah.
I just came to say goodbye.
I didn’t mean to make you cry.
I don’t care if you're alone,
or what you do when you’re at home.
I’ve lost your number, it’s long gone.
Getting over you won’t take too long.
I don’t want to own you,
I don’t want to please you,
I’m not here to beg you,
I’m just glad to leave you.
I just came to say goodbye. Goodbye.
I am done and it’s no lie yeah.
I just came to say goodbye.
I didn’t mean to make you cry.
You dropped the clover, so Red Rover, Cross Over.
It’s a habit of mine, how I smooth things over.
But I did it, I done it, forget it, I’m gone.
Drop the mic, it won’t take too long.
Cause I figured the way you loved was the only way,
and yeah I chose to stay but now I’m here to say.
Your kinda loving, I’m better than that. FACT.
But, you done known that Jack.
I just came to say goodbye. Goodbye.
I am done and it’s no lie yeah.
I just came to say goodbye.
I didn’t mean to…
I jut came to say goodbye…
I didn’t mean to make you cry…
It’s about loving ourself.
