[Intro]

Whenever you decide to become yourself

You become lonely

(Why)

Because everyone around you

Wants you to be like them

Or they want you to be them

So when you discover that you are unique

You are special

You are important

And you decide to become who you are

And achieve what you were dreaming

Loneliness is the rеsult

[Chorus]

Lately, I been so alone

And I'm cool with being lonеly

It's a lot going on

Switched to a whole 'nother road

And I done lost so many homies

I can't complain

No, we ain't on the same thing

I tried to tell 'em life ain't a game

[Post-Chorus]

Everything I do gotta give it one hunnid

But the ones 'round me ain't wanna give nothing

The love I'ma give out free

But If you don't wanna grow with the team

Then I gotta keep runnin'

[Verse 1]

They say I'm doin' too much

They don't wanna do nothin'

No, I ain't stuntin'

I'm just answering the call from the King

It's way, way bigger than me

[Verse 2]

Back then fittin' in, being cool was the thing

Got up outta school

Realized I was a fool to believe in what they said about me

At the end of the day, oh I'ma be me

Young C.G

I'ma smile, I'ma dance

Live life, be free

Mmm

I'ma smile, I'ma dance

Live life, be free

Mmm

[Chorus]

Lately, I been so alone

And I'm cool with being lonely

It's a lot going on

Switched to a whole 'nother road

I done lost so many homies

But, I can't complain

No, we ain't on the same thing

Yeah, I tried to tell 'em life ain't a game

[Post-Chorus]

Everything I do gotta give it one hunnid

But the ones 'round me ain't wanna give nothing

The love I'ma give out free

But If you don't wanna grow with the team

Then I gotta keep runnin'

[Verse 3]

I do not care if you rock with me

Yeah we move in abundance, not poverty

I can see that they envy, they watching me

Tryna get what I got

No there ain't no difference 'tween me and you

You know we serve the same God

You can do it too

But you can't be scared to be alone

Cuz that's the only way the Lord gon' speak to you

When there's no one around, He gon' show you who you are

Who He made you to be

It's hard to do when you glued to the screen

Had to cut out my usual routine

But now I'm on route to my dreams

That's why

[Chorus]

I'm so alone

But I'm cool with being lonely

It's a lot going on

Switched to a whole 'nother road

I done lost so many homies

But, I can't complain

No, we ain't on the same thing

Yeah, I tried to tell 'em life ain't a game

[Post-Chorus]

Everything I do gotta give it one hunnid

But the ones 'round me, they ain't wanna give nothing

The love I'ma give out free

But If you don't wanna grow with the team

Then I gotta keep runnin'

[Outro]

I'm lonely now because-

A leader is always lonely because they are outfront

There's no one out there with them

When you think about it

If you have everyone around you

Then you're part of the crowd

(That's true)

So leaders are-

T-They live a lonely life

But t-they chose that loneliness

And that's important

You have to chose to be alone

If you're going to change the world

And every great leader in history as you study them

They really found their true self when they were alone

You know Moses was in the wilderness

Jesus Christ in the desert

Paul went to the desert

You know and-

So when you pursue something

That is more important than the crowd

You end up leading the crowd

(Wow)

Someone said you cannot lead an orchestra

Unless you turn your back to the crowd
