You Need Me, I Don't Need You

Lyrics

Now I'm in town, breaking down, thinking of making a new sound
 Playing a different show every night in front of a new crowd
 That's you now, ciao, seems that life is great now
 Now see me lose focus as I sing to you loud
 And I can't, no, I won't hush
 I say the words that make you blush
 I'm gonna sing this now
 Now-now-now, now-now-now
 See, I'm true, my songs are where my heart is
 I'm like glue, I stick to other artists
 I'm not you, now that would be disastrous
 So, let me sing and do my thing to move to greener pastures
 See, I'm real, I do it all, it's all me
 I'm not fake, don't ever call me lazy
 I won't stay put, give me the chance to be free
 'Cause Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate me, man, oh
 'Cause you need me, man, I don't
 Yeah, you need me, man, I don't, don't, don't
 You need me, man, I don't
 Man, I don't, man, I don't need you
 You need me, man, I don't
 Yeah, you need me, man, I don't, don't, don't
 You need me, man, I don't
 Man, I don't, yeah
 I sing and write my own tune, and I write my own verse
 Now don't need another wordsmith to make my tunes sell
 So, call yourself a singer-writer, you're just bluffing
 Name's on the credits and you didn't write nothing
 I sing fast, I know that all my shit's cool
 I will blast, and I didn't go to BRIT School
 I came fast with the way I act, right
 I can't last if I'm smoking on a crack pipe
 And I won't be the product of my genre
 My mind'll always be stronger than my songs are
 So, never believe the bullshit that fake guys will feed to ya
 Always read the stories that you hear on Wikipedia
 Yeah, and musically, I'm demonstrating
 When I perform live, it's like I am meditating
 Times at the Enterprise when some fella filmed me
 A young singer-writer like Gabriella Cilmi
 'Cause you need me, man, I don't
 Yeah, you need me, man, I don't, don't, don't
 You need me, man, I don't
 Man, I don't, man, I don't need you
 You need me, man, I don't
 Yeah, you need me, man, I don't, don't, don't
 You need me, man, I don't
 Man, I don't
 'Cause with the lyrics, I'll be aiming it right
 I won't stop 'til my name's in lights at stadium heights
 With Damien Rice, on red carpets, now I'm on Arabian Nights
 Because I'm young, I know my brother's gonna give me advice
 A long-nighter, short height, and I gone hyper
 Never be anything but a singer-songwriter, yeah
 Hard game's over, but now I'm on a new level
 Watch how I step on the track without a loop pedal
 People think that I'm bound to blow up
 I've done around about a thousand shows
 But I haven't got a house, plus I live on the couch
 So, you can believe the lyrics when I'm singing them out
 Oh, from day one, I've been prepared
 With V05 wax for my ginger hair
 So now I'm back to the sofa, giving a dose of
 What the future holds 'cause it's another day
 Plus I'll keep my last name forever, keep this genre pretty basic
 Gonna be breaking into another people's tunes when I chase it
 And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift
 Into another rapper's shoes, using new laces
 I'm selling CDs from my rucksack, aiming for the papers
 Selling CDs from my rucksack, aiming for majors
 Nationwide tour with Just Jack, soon as I get the bus back
 Clean-cut kid without a razor for the moustache
 I hit back when the pen hurts me
 I'm still a choir boy in a Fenchurch tee
 I'm still the same as years ago, but now more people hear me, though
 According to the Myspace and YouTube videos
 I'm always doing shows, if I'm not, I'm in the studio
 Truly broke, never growing up, call me Rufio
 Melody music maker, reading all the papers
 They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator
 'Cause you need me, man, I don't
 Yeah, you need me, man, I don't, don't, don't
 You need me, man, I don't
 Man, I don't, man, I don't need you
 'Cause you need me, man, I don't
 Yeah, you need me, man, I don't, don't, don't
 You need me, man, I don't
 Man, I don't, man, I don't
 'Cause you need me, man, I don't
 'Cause you need me, man, I don't
 'Cause you need me, you need me
 You need me, man, I don't
 'Cause you need me, man, I don't
 You need me, man, I don't
 You need me, you need me
 You need me, man, I don't need you
