We Don't Need' Em

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
