[Verse 1] Don't do love, don't do friends I'm only after success Don't need a relationship I'll never soften my grip [Pre-Chorus] Don't want cash, don't want card Want it fast, want it hard Don't need money, don't need fame I just want to make a change I just wanna change, I just wanna change I just wanna change, I just wanna change I just wanna... change [Chorus] I know exactly what I want and who I want to be I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh! [Verse 2] One track mind, one track heart If I fail, I'll fall apart Maybe it is all a test 'Cause I feel like I'm the worst So I always act like I'm the best

This song hits different when you know what you wanna do for your future but people keep telling you can’t achieve your dream. You start to fall into this deep spiral of trying to prove them wrong but also try not to focus on what they say. This all leads to overworking yourself to the point of burnout and self isolation
