[Verse 1] I don't know when I don't know how You cracked my soul Knocked my courage out Get up Get dressed Same stain on the day Every smile they take Then they walk away Everybody Everybody Just wants a piece of me Pick at my bones Like it's all for free [Pre-Chorus] But I'm not your cure I'm not your crutch You drained me dry I finally had enough (yeah) [Chorus] Not today I say kiss my ass I'm gonna walk my way Just watch me pass (hey!) I need a friend like me Just once in this life I hold up everyone But I leave myself behind Not today I say kiss my ass I'm cutting all these strings I am not your mask I need a friend like me Who sees past the lie It's time to unwind I'm reaching for the sky (so high) [Verse 2] I talk you down From every ledge But where are you When I'm on the edge Answer my phone At 3 a.m Talk circles ‘round All your mayhem Got your secrets Stacked in my chest Got your weight Pressed on my breath [Pre-Chorus] But I'm not your cure I'm not your crutch You call it love I call it too much (too much) [Chorus] Not today I say kiss my ass I'm gonna walk my way Just watch me pass (watch me) I need a friend like me Just once in this life I hold up everyone But I leave myself behind Not today I say kiss my ass I'm done apologizing Done coming last I need a friend like me Who won’t let me deny It's time to unwind I'm reaching for the sky [Bridge] Are you ready to fly Get high with me On the truth that we Deserve to be free (oh) Are you ready to fall Out of that lie Where hurting yourself Means keeping them fine I’ve been my shadow Hiding my light Now I’m my hero Stepping into sight (yeah) [Chorus] Not today I say kiss my ass I'm gonna walk my way Just watch me pass (watch me pass) I need a friend like me Just once in this life I’ve had everybody’s back Now I’m standing by mine Not today I say kiss my ass I’m burning every script You wrote in my head I am the friend I need I finally know why It’s time to unwind I’m reaching for the sky (so high) (It’s my time, my life)
