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, the fuck'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
[Outro: Harmonization]
Yeah
I-i-i-
I-i-i don't care about it anymore
I-i-i don't care about it anymore
[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
But if I can't be me, the 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
[Outro: Harmonization]
Yeah
I-i-i-
I-i-i don't care about it anymore
I-i-i don't care about it anymore
