I Don't Care (snippets)

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Used to cry 'bout some crazy shit before
I used to feel so obligated to be so much more
I used to let some people tell me how to live and what to be
But if I can't be me, then what's the point?
No

[Chorus]
I don't care about it anymore, no
I don't care about it anymore, no

[Verse 2]
Now I laugh about the things that used to be important to me
Used to have a hold on me (Used to have a hold on me)
Like what do you think
And what he thinks
And what they think
But I love me, yeah

[Chorus]
I don't care about it anymore, no
I don't care about it anymore, no

[Outro: Harmonization]
I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
Yeah, ah
I-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, ah
Oh, woah
I-I-I-I-ooh-oooooh, ah
I-I do-on't care about it anymore
I-I do-on't care about it anymore, no

[Verse 1]
Used to cry 'bout some crazy sh** before
I used to feel so obligated to be so much more
I used to let some people tell me how to live and what to be
I used to let some people tell me how to live and what to be
But if I can't be me, then what's the point?
No

[Chorus]
I don't care about it anymore, no
I don't care about it anymore, no

[Verse 2]
Now I laugh about the things that used to be important to me
Used to have a hold on me (Used to have a hold on me)
Like what do you think
And what he thinks
And what they think
But I love me, yeah

[Chorus]
I don't care about it anymore, no
I don't care about it anymore, no

[Outro: Harmonization]
I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
Yeah, ah
I-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, ah
Oh, woah
I-I-I-I-ooh-oooooh, ah
I-I do-on't care about it anymore
I-I do-on't care about it anymore, no
