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, more
I don't care about it anymore, more

[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, oh)
Like what do you think
And what he thinks and what they think
But I love me (yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
I don't care about it anymore, more
I don't care about it anymore (ooh yeah)

[Outro]
I-I don't care about it anymore
I-I don't care about it anymore, more
