Baby, I cannot control the world
When I can't even control myself
And I know this life was meant for me
'Cause I can't be like someone else
Gettin' tired of all these twists and turns
So I'ma really need your help
'Cause baby, I cannot control the world
When I can't even control myself

It was a stormy night, not a star in the sky
Only stars you could see in the ceilin' (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I told her hold me tight and take a look in my eyes
Know you wonder the way that I'm feelin' (wonder the way)
If you are who I think you are
Then you lend your hands to me
But tonight, so I think it's time
To make up my mind then leave

'Cause I'm through with all you do to me
And it's true that love is all I need

Baby, I cannot control the world
When I can't even control myself
And I know this life was meant for me
'Cause I can't be like someone else
Gettin' tired of all these twists and turns
So I'ma really need your help
'Cause baby, I cannot control the world
When I can't even control myself

Uh, can't even control myself
Talkin' to myself, like self don't ignore myself
I told myself that I owe myself more myself
This world crazy, like Ms. Daisy, almost drove myself
I'm sure I need love, but not sure if I'm sure of myself
She full of herself, like the only one she for is herself
But mourning myself, don't want myself to corner myself
Killin' myself, be the only one mourning myself
I'm only myself, I be in my own zone in myself
Keep my thoughts to myself, I be tryna keep my heart to myself
It's an art in itself, but you could keep me all to yourself
'Cause baby (love is all I need, yeah yeah yeah)

Baby, I cannot control the world
When I can't even control myself (i cannot control the world, myself)
And I know this life was meant for me
'Cause I can't be like someone else (yeah, be like someone else)
Getting tired of all these twists and turns
So I'ma really need your help (yeah, yeah, yeah, I really need your help)
'Cause baby, I cannot control the world
When I can't even control myself (yeah, I cannot control the world)
