I thought what I wanted, Oh Was what I needed All these reflections Showin' me Somethin' different But when I'm down, who's gonna love me? Who's gonna leave me? Who's gonna lift me up? When I need a smile in a second To change my direction The day gets Better witchya I don't wanna be, Be a burden But I'm still learnin' You can't tell me nothin', Yeah Even if I fall right on my face You can't tell me nothin', Oh I guess I gotta learn it the hard way Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh See, I'm thankful for my Blessings And I'm grateful for my lessons Please, Don't worry 'bout me, baby You can't save me Can't tell me nothin', Yeah' Cause I gotta learn it the hard way Hard to find the old me When I'm at this new phase All these opinions startin' to get me down All of these diamonds don't need to weight me down I thought the Money was the Solution I got all the money in the world But still got Problems But when I'm down, who's gonna love me? Who's gonna leave me? Who's gonna pick me up? When I need a smile in a Second To change my direction The things get Better with us I don't wanna be, be a burden I'm still learnin', And honestly You can't tell me nothin', oh, Oh no Even if I fall right on my face You can't tell me nothin', Nothin', nothin', nothin' I guess I gotta find out the hard way, Yeah I had to take the heartbreak just to break through I had to take The heartbreak just to break through I had to take the hard road just To get to you I had to take the hard road just to get to you I had to Lose myself just to find truth I had to lose myself just to find Truth, find truth Find truth, find truth Now, At least you know Forever I found out on my own Now, at least you know Forever I found out on my own
