Do it myself

I've learned my lesson, I've paid my dues,

I've walked alone in these worn-out shoes.

I used to trust, but now I've seen,

That reliance on others just makes me keen.

Where were you when I needed a hand?

When I reached out to you, you didn't understand.

Left me stranded, left me on my own,

But I've grown stronger, I've carved my own stone.

If I'm gonna get it done, I'll do it myself,

I don't need no help, I don't need no wealth.

I stand tall, I stand proud,

I'll pave my own path, I'll make my own sound.

I've been betrayed, I've been misled,

But those scars have only fueled my thread.

I've learned to rely on my own strength,

No longer bound by others' limited length.

I'm a one-man army, a force untamed,

I'll conquer my battles, unashamed.

You may doubt me, you may criticize,

But watch me rise, right before your very eyes.

I'm the architect of my own destiny,

No longer shackled by your false empathy.

I'll prove you wrong, I'll silence the doubt,

With my determination, there's no way out.

If I'm gonna get it done, I'll do it myself,

I don't need no help, I don't need no wealth.

I stand tall, I stand proud,

I'll pave my own path, I'll make my own sound.

I've grown resilient, I've grown tough,

No longer relying on others' fluff.

I've got a fire burning deep inside,

The strength to conquer, the will to stride.

So don't come crawling when I've reached the top,

When you abandoned me, left me to drop.

I'll remember your absence, your lack of care,

As I soar higher, beyond your snare.

If I'm gonna get it done, I'll do it myself,

I don't need no help, I don't need no wealth.

I stand tall, I stand proud,

I'll pave my own path, I'll make my own sound.

I'll forge my own destiny, I'll break the mold,

No longer relying on what others hold.

I'll rise above, I'll stand alone,

Because in the end, I am my own throne
