It's a Selfish Thing I'm Doing for Myself Lyrics

hey there simple boy
do you think you are successful
why do you go on and on
'bout how you are you are regretful
do you think it's cool to hate yourself
just cuz kanye does
but boy you sure ain't yeezy
and i know you know that you never will be

ain't that a dose of truth
ain't that a dose of truth

ain't that a dose of truth
ain't that a dose of truth

you wanna know the truth
i don't think you do

i wanna follow my dreams still
i think that i deserve that much
i get to follow my dreams
just because i want to
and i'm gonna do it on the backs of anyone
willing to sacrifice
it's a selfish thing i'm doing
doing for myself

but i wanna give back if i ever
ever get anywhere
not saying that i will
not saying that i can

i wanna do this for me
no no no no
i wanna do this for me
yeah yeah yeah yeah
i wanna do this for me
no no no no
i wanna do this for me
yeah yeah

all alone in a room
could've been someone great
could've been forgotten quickly

i am
i am so lost
sacrifice myself

i wanna be so great
i wanna be so great
will you help me
will you help me be great
celebrate me

i wanna follow my dreams still
i think that i deserve that much
i get to follow my dreams
just because i want to
and i'm gonna do it on the backs of anyone
willing to sacrifice
it's a selfish thing i'm doing
doing for myself

but i wanna give back if i ever
ever get anywhere
not saying that i will
not saying that i can

i wanna do this for me
no no no no
i wanna do this for me
yeah yeah yeah yeah
i wanna do this for me
no no no no
i wanna do this for me
yeah yeah

yeah
i don't want to lose
no no no
who would want to lose
