[00:00.100] I never needed
[00:02.407] I never needed you
[00:05.460] Oh let alone anyone
[00:08.527] We can leave this dead and gone
[00:12.096] I never needed
[00:14.100] I never needed you
[00:17.178] Oh let alone anyone
[00:20.143] We can leave this dead and gone
[00:22.582]
[00:24.308] Grew up in a city known for cheaper alcohol
[00:26.917] Where the dreamers go to wipe their mind of every single thought
[00:30.018] Where the clouds are grey enough to block out every star
[00:32.618] Until the thought of ever reaching them is lost, no
[00:35.822] The only to see them was to run far away
[00:38.752] Only way to touch them was to work every day
[00:41.454] But the, the thought of failure plagues my heart and my head
[00:44.175] And I can't get this weight up off my chest, no, no
[00:47.522]
[00:47.572] Sticks and stones can't break my bones
[00:50.220] No, words won't bring me down
[00:53.419] Mama told me: "stand up tall
[00:56.112] Don't let them take your crown"
[00:59.215] Even when you touch the sky
[01:02.005] They'll say you're on the ground
[01:05.101] Sticks and stones can't break my bones
[01:07.808] No, words won't bring me down
[01:10.665]
[01:10.749] And they ain't break my bones
[01:12.469] But we can do damage with a stick, no stones
[01:15.253] In this whip full of chrome
[01:16.722] I'm a prick, I know
[01:18.478] In this mad city, gotta be a psycho just to call it my home
[01:22.515] Why you think we fly more?
[01:24.193] If you don't see the tears, that just means he cried more
[01:26.809] In here, you stay for life, or sacrifice your mind for
[01:29.993] That military mindset
[01:31.699] He don't wanna die yet
[01:33.057] He did it for survival
[01:34.439]
[01:34.489] Sticks and stones can't break my bones
[01:37.029] No, words won't bring me down
[01:40.246] Mama told me: "stand up tall
[01:42.934] Don't let them take your crown"
[01:46.060] Even when you touch the sky
[01:48.831] They'll say you're on the ground
[01:52.022] Sticks and stones can't break my bones
[01:54.641] No, words won't bring me down
[01:57.436]
[01:57.486] My only thoughts walking through all the pissed-stained staircases
[02:00.764] Was "Do it on your own — less people to catch a case with"
[02:03.681] The ones that play the bravest needed a mask to feel like jason
[02:06.505] These days I'm less involved, but been adjacent to the stainless
[02:09.444] I've been around the world and I, I, I
[02:12.598] Still can't find no peace in my mi-ind
[02:15.534] Even with knife in my back I left behind
[02:18.193] I was juuging off the super cell, but can't rewind time don't pull up
[02:22.668] Bad man ah go forward with the sticks and stones
[02:25.452] These days I'm done talking to 'em
[02:27.316] Talk or I can show 'em how to walk
[02:28.980] And hope they follow movement
[02:30.265] Made it look too easy
[02:31.342] Now they thinking that there's nothing to it
[02:32.916]
[02:32.966] Sticks and stones can't break my bones
[02:35.657] No, words won't bring me down
[02:38.760] Mama told me: "stand up tall
[02:41.466] Don't let them take your crown"
[02:44.664] Even when you touch the sky
[02:47.384] They'll say you're on the ground
[02:50.536] Sticks and stones can't break my bones
[02:53.213] No, words won't bring me down
[02:55.442]
[02:55.492] I wanna use the gifts I'm given
[02:57.555] I'm spending days and nights and weeks up in the kitchen
[02:59.893] Not just tryna make living
[03:01.299] I've been tryna make a difference
[03:03.290] I'll make a change and some change on the side
[03:05.511] So my family can never want for nothing
[03:07.466] I've been suffering
[03:08.288] I've been thriving and I've been in between
[03:10.379] I've been on the road to riches since I was like 17
[03:13.407] Pocket full of dreams of stadiums singing back at me
[03:16.256] In reality it's just faces passing on the street
[03:19.127] I'm trying desperately to make them stop and notice me
[03:22.116] Maybe that will stop these doubts from creeping in and choking me
[03:24.945] Hopefully
[03:25.656] Look
[03:26.089] The biggest battle is the one against myself
[03:28.477] The enemy of my potential and my mental health
[03:31.187] But I'll never let that voice under my skin
[03:33.468] I'll never let him in
[03:34.433] I'll never let him in
[03:35.465] I'll never let him win
[03:36.860] So I'll remember from whence I came
[03:38.791] I used to find a comfort in these whispers
[03:40.860] But I'm glad that I can finally say
[03:42.736]
[03:42.786] I never needed
[03:44.895] I never needed you
[03:47.855] Oh let alone anyone
[03:50.879] We can leave this dead and gone
[03:54.290] I never needed
[03:56.696] I never needed you
[03:59.678] Oh let alone anyone
[04:02.620] We can leave this dead and gone
