Jamie Lidell - I'm Selfish [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Do you feel like you ain't gettin' no attention?
And you need it so bad
Didn't anybody care enough to mention
That it ain't only about you?

Now you need something to beat the tension
Say you need it so bad
I don't want your medicine
I just wanna break the chain

Used to make it all about me
Cause baby I'm selfish
But I fight it
My pride is behind this
And I've seen it
All before

You fly over the hill for visions
Find something deep in your soul
And you find that you are only making bad decisions
You've got to take back control, yeah
Control
Control
Control...

Used to make it all about me
Cause baby I'm selfish
But I fight it
My pride is behind this
And I've seen it
All before

Used to make it all about me
Cause baby I'm selfish
But I fight it
My pride is behind this
And I've seen it
All before

Used to make it all about me
Used to make it all about me
Used to make the same mistakes
Used to be full of pride
But now

I've seen this deception
Changed my direction
Don't need to go there
Already know there

Now I go
Another way

Used to make it all about me
Cause baby I'm selfish
But I fight it
My pride is behind this
And I've seen it
All before

Used to make it all about me
Cause baby I'm selfish
But I fight it
My pride is behind this
And I've seen it
All before

I've seen it all before

Life ain't only about you
Life ain't only about you
I used to make it about me

Life ain't only about you
Life ain't only about you
I used to make it about me

Life ain't only about you
Life ain't only about you
I used to make it about me
