[Title: Good On My Own (Table For One)] [Style: Neo-Soul], [R&B], [Chillhop], [Confident], [Peaceful], [Self-Assured] [Instrumentation: Warm Mellow Bassline, Lo-Fi Hip Hop Beat, Jazz Guitar Chords, Rhodes Piano, Finger Snaps] (Music Starts: A vinyl crackle. A slow, lazy, Lo-Fi drum loop. A warm, round bass note. Rhodes piano chords, shimmery and soft.) (Spoken Intro - like a voice memo) (Spoken, smiling) It's funny... I spent so long bein' terrified of bein' alone. And now? Man... this peace is everything. This is Eyepiercinglove. (Verse 1) [Music Tag: Relaxed, Confident Vocals, Conversational Delivery] Used to need the validation Jumpin' into situations (Ad-lib: So fast...) Runnin' from that empty space Tryna find my "savin' grace" In a text back, in a "hey" (Ad-lib: Just somethin' to get me through the day...) My inventory's full of men Who I let break my heart again, and again... (Pre-Chorus) [Music Tag: Music shifts, a clean jazz guitar lick, Breathy Harmonies] But I did the work, I faced the fear (Ad-lib: That abandonment...) Don't need a "savior" to be here I'm not a "half" lookin' for a "whole" I'm finally in control... (Chorus) [Music Tag: The groove just sits. It's peaceful and confident.] 'Cause I'm Good On My Own Got a stability I've never known My house is clean, my mind is clear All that chaos ain't welcome here. I'm payin' my rent, I'm raisin' my boys I'm choosin' all my simple joys I'm not "available," I'm not "on the shelf" I'm busy buildin' with myself. And I'm Good On My Own. (Verse 2) [Music Tag: Smooth Ad-libs] This ain't that "lonely" from my past (Ad-lib: Crying in the closet...) This is a peace that's built to last It's a "table for one," and I'm eatin' good Finally doin' what I should Focus on my God, focus on my school (Ad-lib: That Health Science...) Learnin' how to use my tools My "gut feeling," my "inner sight" I'm my own damn guiding light. (Pre-Chorus) [Music Tag: Harmonies come in, warm] 'Cause I did the work, I faced the fear Don't need a "savior" to be here I'm not a "half" lookin' for a "whole" I'm finally in control. (Chorus) [Music Tag: Groove is deep and confident] 'Cause I'm Good On My Own Got a stability I've never known My house is clean, my mind is clear All that chaos ain't welcome here. I'm payin' my rent, I'm raisin' my boys I'm choosin' all my simple joys I'm not "available," I'm not "on the shelf" I'm busy buildin' with myself. And I'm Good On My Own. (Bridge) [Music Tag: Music breaks down, just Rhodes, snaps, and vocals] And if a good man comes along He's gotta be just as strong He's gotta match this peace I've found (Ad-lib: My price went up...) He's gotta be on solid ground 'Cause I'm not "lookin'," I'm not "in need" I'm just plantin' my own seeds. (Final Chorus) [Music Tag: Groove comes back, full and bright] 'Cause I'm Good On My Own Got a stability I've never known My house is clean, my mind is clear All that chaos ain't welcome here. I'm payin' my rent, I'm raisin' my boys I'm choosin
