Keep that same energy
You didn’t care for me then
So don’t pretend like you care now
You didn’t even try to give me what I needed
Didn’t even think to find out what it was
So don’t try that now
It’s too late and it’s fake
Just something you do to feel better about your past failings
You wanna act like you took care of me
But it was never what I needed
It was never right and it was never enough

I have so many words I want to say to you
So much that I need to get off my chest
But I can’t think of how, and I just get jumbled up
I’m better with words written than words spoken
But it means nothing now, because I can never get my point across
You don’t get me, you barely even try
You and I will never see eye to eye
You believe that you’re helping me
You believe that good intentions are enough

But all you do is interfere
You’re a world class meddler, and it makes it harder for me
I don’t need your help, I never asked for it
You always just get in my way
None of your motives are pure
Always looking to get something out of it
Looking to have things your way
I’m tired of it, tired of your judgment
Tired of you telling me what to do
Tired of your snide comments
Tired of you second guessing me at every turn
I’m tired of it, so fed up

But what can I do?
I can’t make you stop
Anytime I disagree with you, you make me feel guilty
Anytime I fight your manipulation, you blame me
I know better than to fall for your wiles and tricks
I know better than to let you do this to me
But it’s easy to forget how you make me feel
It’s easy to forget all the times you’ve hurt me
But no more, I won’t let you disrupt my peace

So keep that same energy
You didn’t care for me then
So don’t care for me now
You didn’t give me what I needed before
It’s too late for that now
I am who I am
And I never really needed you, I see that now
You told me who I should be instead of embracing me for me
So keep that same energy
I’ll reap my blessings and you’ll have none
I’ll show you who I am, but that’s it, we’re done
