[Intro]
I choose me
Dm G A Dm G A Dm
………………….
[Verse 1]
Dm G A
The pressure’s taking over me, it’s beginning to loom
Dm
Better if I spare your feelings and tell you the truth
G A
Lately, I redirected my point of view
You won’t grow waitin’ on me
F
I can’t live in the Matrix, huh
Eb
Rather fall short of your graces, huh
D
This time I won’t trade places, huh
F
Not about who’s right, who’s wrong, huh
Em
Evolve, the only thing known, huh
Bb
Ask me when I’m coming home, huh
F
Blink twice again, I’m gone
[Chorus]
Dm G A
…I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
Dm G
I choose me, I’m sorry….
A
I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
[Verse 2]
Dm G A
…She woke up in the morning for the daily news
Dm
I was so low and mourning through the family feuds
G A
Baby, I told you a story and laid down all the rules
Still, you won’t grow waiting on me
[Chorus]
F Em
…I choose me, I’m sorry
Eb
I choose me, I’m sorry
D
I choose me, I’m sorry
F Em
…I choose me, I’m sorry
Bb
I choose me, I’m sorry
A
I choose me, I’m sorry

………….
[Verse 3]
Dm
‘Cause all of it’s toxic
G
Girl, I’m not relevant to givin’ on profit
A
Personal gain off my pain, it’s nonsense
Darlin’ my demons is off the leash for a moshpit
Dm
Baby, I just had a baby, you know she need me
G
Workin’ on myself, the counselin’ is not easy
A
Don’t you point a finger, just to point a finger
‘Cause critical thinkin’ is a deal-breaker
Faith in one man is a ship sinking
Dm
Do yourself a favor and get a mirror that mirror grievance
G
Then point it at me so the reflection can mirror freedom
A
She told me that she need me the most, I didn’t believe her
She even called me names on the post, the world can see it
F
Jokes and gaslightin’
Em
Mad at me ’cause she didn’t get my vote, she say I’m triflin’
Disregardin’ the way that I cope with my own vices
Eb
Maybe it’s time to break it off
D
Run away from the culture to follow my heart
[Bridge]
F Em Eb
I realized, true love’s not savin’ face
D
But unconditional
F
When will you let me go?
Em
I trust you’ll find independence
Bb
If not, then all is forgiven
F
Sorry I didn’t save the world, my friend
Dm
I was too busy buildin’ mine again
[Chorus]
Dm G A
…I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
Dm G
I choose me, I’m sorry….
A
I choose me, I’m sorry
F Em Bb F
I choose me, I’m sorry………..
Dm G A
…I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
Dm G
I choose me, I’m sorry….
A
I choose me, I’m sorry
I choose me, I’m sorry
[Outro]
