Now I let you out of my life I'm so much better You thought that I'd be weak without you but I'm stronger You thought that I'd be broke without you but I'm richer You thought that I'd be sad without you I laugh harder You thought I wouldn't grow without you now I'm wiser Though that I'd be helpless without you but I'm smarter You thought that I'd be stressed without you but I'm chillin' You thought I wouldn't sell without you sold 9 million

Thought I couldn't breathe without you I'm inhaling You thought I couldn't see without you perfect vision You thought I couldn't last without you but I'm lastin' You thought that I would die without you but I'm livin' Thought that I would fail without you but I'm on top Thought it would be over by now but it won't stop Thought that I would self-destruct but I'm still here Even in my years to come I'm still gon' be here
