I just don’t want to do this anymore cause I can’t stand this life

Somebody’s always hounding me, a psycho or somebody’s wife

And I ain’t the person I used to be and all close and dear are so far

All these people controlling my business I don’t even know who they are

            The friends and fans and followers

            The support that failed and the believers

            And twisted minds and criminals

            They see or hear me everyday

 

Well I’m fed up of all this high life

Being a star and I’m on profile

It’s not easy on public scrutiny

Everyone saying something to me

I mean it’s good to know I make them happy

And it’s nice to know that they love me

Abut I ain’t got no privacy

And hardly any honesty

Just girls who wanna do me cause I’m famous

And even some men, man it’s so strenuous

On my brain

I’m maybe going insane

 

But before I get lost in this environment

I’m changing the direction that led me here

Whether I’m a legend time will tell that

I gotta get me, my head real clear

Gotta change my identity

Some of my personality

I’ll be sworn to secrecy

Just another happy nobody

I’ll walk the streets in disguise

At least I won’t be living lies

For a while the press would be hot and hectic

People will want to know what happened to him

But please please

Just let me be

I had my time

To shine already

 

I won’t tell you what kind of life I’m choosing

But it ain’t gonna be anything connected with this thing

And maybe someday if I feel it again

I’ll pick up my instrument, maybe sing again!
