Where the people around me just envy,

I must replace ‘em

See, I always thought the people that watch me grow

Would wanna see me blow, for sure, but little did

I knowThey ain’t never really wanna see me smiling

I was really shining

And in my heart

I knew they wishing

Cause they don’t me to rise and be on top

And all that jealousy and hate

Could be right in front of your face

And it’s gone hurt for you to see

But it ain’t your fault, just let it be

See, everybody wanna have something to talk about

So they pointin’ their fingers and always runnin’ their mouths

No matter how you try to satisfy someone else

Givin’ so much of yourself, your love, but it’s never enough

The more you give, the more they want and they ain’t happy

And they don’t see all you do to make ‘em happy

They don’t appreciate it ‘till you walk away

But you don’t wanna hear it by now it’s too late

And all that jealousy and hate

Could be right in front of your face

And it’s gone hurt for you to see

But it ain’t your fault, just let it be

So, I’m gon’ close my eyes

And I’m gon’ live my life
