[Intro]
Uh-huh
Uh-huh, oh, oh, mm-mm
[Verse 1]
I don't know what you've done
I don't know what you've been through, uh, uh
Don't know what you've done (Uh, uh)
But I don't know what you've been through, baby
Come on, tell me, face it
I been on cellphones lately (Uh)
Said it so easy (Yeah)
I said "You can't change me" (Yeah)
"Or anything that happens in my life" (Oh no, no)
Didn't know it could get this bad, I'ma do this time (No, no, no)
[Chorus]
Yeah, for myself, I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
Uh-huh
Uh-huh, oh, oh, mm-mm
I'ma do it just for myself
Uh-huh
I'ma do it just for myself
Uh, uh
I'ma do it just for myself, uh, uh
[Verse 2]
Head on straight, I been gettin' all money
Been on the road, I've been on tour, but this shit's not funny
She just envy me, I've been through what you want and go back home
I'm heart attack-prone
Come on, just look what we've done, oh, oh
We've got the love-induced stare
[?] ready to break me down
You'll take off [?] breakin' me down
Just tell myself one time again
Time again
Time again
Time again
Time again
[Refrain]
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myse—
[Verse 3]
Please just go to sleep
I don't wanna tell you
Baby, I don't wanna hear you
Baby, I don't wanna know
Don't wanna know
These things ain't always set in stone
[?]
Every little way you walk out
By god, you got no vanity
You didn't have faith for me
Baby, don't wanna know
You still, oh, you still
But you makin' my head hurt, my head hurt
[Refrain]
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
I'ma do it just for myself
[Intro]
In the intro, Richman sets the tone with a soft, reflective vocal delivery. His repeated sounds and phrases create an atmosphere of contemplation, preparing the listener for the introspective journey ahead.
[Verse 1]
Here, Richman expresses confusion and a sense of detachment, as he admits he doesn't fully understand what someone else has gone through but is unwilling to let them change him. He’s been overwhelmed with communication (“on cellphones lately”) but remains resolute in doing things his way. The line "Didn't know it could get this bad" suggests a deep realization about the difficulties he faces.
[Chorus]
The chorus repeatedly emphasizes Richman’s decision to focus on himself. He declares that his actions and choices are now solely for his own benefit, detaching from external influences. This repetition highlights his commitment to personal growth and self-care, a key theme in the song.
[Verse 2]
Richman reflects on his recent experiences, including financial success (“gettin' all money”) and the emotional toll of being constantly on the road. He acknowledges that the admiration from others ("envy") doesn’t bring him peace and even makes him more vulnerable to breakdowns. The phrase "heart attack-prone" suggests the emotional stress he’s dealing with. He’s grappling with the highs and lows of life while striving to maintain control over his emotions.
[Refrain]
The refrain reinforces the central theme of self-reliance, as Richman continuously repeats that he’s doing everything for himself. This mantra-like repetition mirrors his desire to strengthen his resolve in the face of adversity.
[Verse 3]
In this verse, Richman’s frustration becomes more apparent. He pleads for space, expressing exhaustion from emotional interactions. He distances himself from a partner who lacks faith in him and causes him stress. The mention of "vanity" indicates that he feels burdened by the superficial nature of some relationships. The verse delves into the mental strain he endures and his need to escape these pressures.
[Refrain]
The final refrain continues the theme of personal empowerment, as Richman reinforces his declaration of independence and self-reliance.
