Alone

I give so much to people, forget about me
Always on the back burner, running on empty
Gotta stay strong, no matter what I do
Tired of being used like it’s nothing new

I been holding my ground, but I’m worn down inside
Always being the strong one, but never asking why

I wish people would just leave me alone
Go on their own and find something else to do (to do)
I wish they would just give me my peace
And let me be understand of my words are true

I’m a Cancer, I feel deep, I love hard
Need my time alone just to guard my heart
I don’t bother nobody, I stay in my lane
When it comes to my sanity, I don’t play games

I give too much, yeah, that’s just who I am
But loving everybody shouldn’t drain me like it has 

I wish people would just leave me alone
Go on their own and find something else to do (to do)
I wish they would just give me my peace
And let me be understand the words I’m saying are true

[Bridge] (smooth, emotional)
It ain’t anger, it’s protection
I need space, not rejection
Choosing me, no explanation
Peace is now my destination

[Chorus / Outro] (repeat, ad-libs, vocal runs)
I wish people would just leave me alone
Go on their own and find something else to do (to do)
I wish they would just give me my peace
And let me be understand the words I’m saying are true
