[Verse 1:]

Sometimes as women we give more than we should

To a man that just don't treat us good, No

Gave him my heart my time

Did all that I could in the past to keep him here with me, yeah

But now I woke up, Opened both my eyes up

Realize that I don't need any other.

Man, if you can't love me equally,

Then you don't need to be with me

Nothing more beautiful then knowing you're worth

And finally, I know exactly what I deserve



[Chorus:]

I'm doin me, this time around

I'm doin' me, don't need you now

I rather be by myself, I won't let your drama hold me down

I'm doin' me, this time around

I'm doin me, I've finally found

I'd rather be by myself, I'm doin' me.



[Verse 2:]

Won't spend another minute wasting my time

On a man, hey, that only tells me lies, no

Aint saying that I don't need love

But them games, I don't need that in my life, no



[Chorus]



I'm doin me, this time around

I'm doin' me, don't need you now

I rather be by myself, I won't let your drama hold me down

I'm doin' me, this time around

I'm doin me, I've finally found

I'd rather be by myself, I'm doin' me.



I could pray for you to act right everyday

But it ain't up to me to make you change

Life is too damn short to live unhappily

So I'm being selfish and putting myself in first place



[Chorus:]

I'm doin me, this time around

I'm doin' me, don't need you now

I rather be by myself, I won't let your drama hold me down

I'm doin' me, this time around

I'm doin me, I've finally found

I'd rather be by myself, I'm doin' me.



I'm doing me

This time around

I'm doing me

This time around

No more crying, going thru hell

It's so good, I'm lovin myself

I'm doin' me

This time around

I'm doin' me

I'm doin' me 

Yeah Yeah

I'm doin' me

Yeah Yeah
