I just wanna live my life
'Cause I wanna and I needed to
So don't be tryna steal my light
'Cause you don't know me, don't pretend to

And I've been busy on my grind
Just like you, I've been tryin'
I've even shed a tear or two
I swear to you, I ain't lyin', oh

Sometimes I feel the world is after me
Tryna get to me, tryna stop what I do
'Cause I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

Everyday there's somethin' that's new to me
I just gotta breathe, I don't know about you
But I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

It ain't easy being Emily, no
But I don't wanna change my name
'Cause I ain't got to, I don't need to
So I'm a do what I do 'cause I ain't gotta live for you
But I'm a keep up with mine
Keep on strivin' and survivin', oh

Sometimes I feel the world is after me
Tryna get to me, tryna stop what I do
'Cause I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

Everyday there's somethin' that's new to me
I just gotta breathe, I don't know about you
But I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

See, everybody's got their own problems
That they're goin' through
I take it day by day, that's only thing that I can do
So I live for me and you live for you
But you can't be me unless you walked in my shoes

Sometimes I feel the world is after me
Tryna get to me, tryna stop what I do
'Cause I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

Everyday there's somethin' that's new to me
I just gotta breathe, I don't know about you
But I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

Sometimes I feel the world is after me
Tryna get to me, tryna stop what I do
'Cause I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

Everyday there's somethin' that's new to me
I just gotta breathe, I don't know about you
But I'm the only one that looks out for me
Can be me and walk in my shoes

Walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk
Walk in my shoes
Walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk
Walk in my shoes
You gon' do you and I'm a do me
