Leave Me Alone Lyrics by Chris Brown
Metro
Mm
CB, late-night thoughts
Yeah
Uh, yeah
Leave me alone, let me breathe for a second
Everybody got opinions, but they missin’ the message
I’ve been fightin’ my demons, I’ve been learnin’ my lessons
I don’t need no directions, already been out here
Try to walk in my shoes, but they don’t fit right
Every scar got a story, every wrong made me right
They see glory, but they don’t see the nights
When I wrote every line just to get me alive
I don’t need your approval (Oh)
I don’t need your applause (Oh)
I’ve been carryin’ this weight (Oh)
I’ve been breakin’ these walls (Oh)
If you don’t understand me (Oh)
It’s okay, that’s fine (Oh)
Already wrote my future
I’m just readin’ the lines
Leave me alone
Let me write my path
How I’ve already written it
I don’t need nobody tellin’ me who I am, no, no
Leave me alone
Let me live my truth
I’ve paid dues for this moment
Every tear led me here to you
So just leave me alone
(Ooh-ooh)
I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be, oh
(Ooh-ooh)
I already wrote my destiny, just let me be
They keep tryna rewrite what I survived (Oh, no)
Judgin’ chapters they never read inside (Oh, no)
I had faith when I didn’t have a sign (Oh, no)
Had a pen, had a dream at the time (Oh, no)
I ain’t perfect, but I’m still chosen (Oh, no)
Heart cracked, but it’s still open (Oh, no)
If I fell, I got back up again
That’s the part they never mention, yeah
(Oh)
I don’t move for the noise (Oh)
I don’t fold for the crowd (Oh)
I’ve been lost, I’ve been found (Oh)
I know me better now (Oh)
If you love me, then trust me (Oh)
If you don’t, step aside (Oh)
Already wrote my story (Oh)
I ain’t changin’ a line
Leave me alone
Let me write my path
How I’ve already written it
I don’t need nobody tellin’ me who I am, no, no
Leave me alone (Ooh)
Let me live my truth
I’ve paid dues for this moment
Every tear led me here to you
So just leave me alone
(Ooh-ooh)
I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be (Yeah), oh
(Ooh-ooh)
I already wrote my destiny, just let me be
I’ve been fightin’ expectations
Tryna meet my own reflections
If you only see my past
You don’t see my resurrection
I don’t owe nobody nothin’
But the best in me (Best in me)
I found peace when I stopped explainin’ my legacy
No more voices in my head
No more second-guessin’
I been walkin’ with my purpose, countin’ every blessin’
Leave me alone
Let me write my path (Let me write)
How I’ve already written it
I survived everythin’ that was meant to break me in half, no, no (Oh yeah)
Leave me alone
I ain’t lost anymore (Anymore)
I know exactly who I am (Oh yeah)
And what I’m doin’ this for
(I’m doin’ it) for, yeah
Leave me alone
(Ooh-ooh) Yeah
I finally believe it (Oh-oh)
(Ooh-ooh) Oh-oh-oh, yeah
I already wrote my destiny, just let me be
Yeah, just let me be
I wrote this life for me
Ooh
