We Don't Need 'Em - Ryan Caraveo

I was whippin' my Chevy

I had three pills in my pocket

My partner told me don’t pop 'em

But I was losin' my noggin'

I call my trunk nosy neighbor

The way it be knockin'

It be my meditation

When the world just will not quit talkin'

I’m not drinkin' and drivin'

I’m just sippin' and cruizin'

If my momma could see me she tell me quit bein' stupid

'Cause see this buzz that I’m getting

Is just wisdom I’m losin'

But I need a distraction

'Cause all my actions been useless

Man I been tryin hard

People tellin me I’ll be okay but that’s just dialogue

If you feel the same as me let me see your lighter, dawg

Let 'em burn, let 'em burn

If they wanna switch sides

Let 'em turn, let 'em turn

We don’t need ‘em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without ‘em

Hey I wouldn’t want to be 'em

We don’t need ‘em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without ‘em

And I wouldn’t want to be 'em

We don’t need 'em homie

We don’t need 'em homie

We don’t need 'em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without 'em

Hey I wouldn’t want to be 'em

Too many people using each other

Such a waste of beautiful human beings that could be lovers

Instead we’re fighters trained to expect the worst from people

It’s hard to fight for good so we learn to work with evil

It hurts my cerebral to think about those habits

Never in-between its either happiness or havoc

Too much of anything is bad for me though

Can only smile so long til' the apathy shows

At least we ain’t phony

What’s worse being with a snake or being lonely

Honesty takes work, lyin’s easy homie

Don’t say you feel it, it should be easy to show me

And if not then fuck 'em

We don’t need ‘em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without ‘em

Hey I wouldn’t want to be 'em

We don’t need ‘em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without ‘em

And I wouldn’t want to be 'em

We don’t need 'em homie

We don’t need 'em homie

We don’t need 'em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without 'em

Hey I wouldn’t want to be 'em

Some people be changin' with the weather

I’m tryin' to keep myself together

Ain’t got the energy to hold on

So I push it aside and keep it rollin'

Some people be changin' with the weather

I’m tryin' to keep myself together, together

I was whippin' my Chevy

I had three pills in my pocket

Finally rolled down the window

And I decided to toss 'em

Went through trouble to get 'em

But I’ll be just fine without 'em

Yeah, I’ll be just fine without 'em

We don’t need ‘em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without ‘em

Hey I wouldn’t want to be 'em

We don’t need ‘em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without ‘em

And I wouldn’t want to be 'em

We don’t need 'em homie

We don’t need 'em homie

We don’t need 'em homie

Nah-nah!

We don’t need 'em

I’m better off without 'em

Hey I wouldn’t want to be 'em
