Independence Lyrics by Amaka Queenette

Vacant

2018

[Verse 1: Amaka Queenette]
With your words you made me feel completed
You spoke to life my night and day
You gave me what I thought I needed
But when you leave you take it all away (all away)
My pathetic desperation (ye, ye)
Just leaves me dissatisfied (dissatisfied)
Your approval my motivation
But I'm so tired of giving up my pride
[Chorus]
Now I just get better, not sheltered by you
Always moving forward, it's all you can do
Now I just get better, not bitter 'bout you
That was just the old me
[Verse 2]
My pathetic desperation
Just leaves me dissatisfied
Your approval my motivation
But I'm so tired of giving up my pride
[Chorus]
Now I just get better, not sheltered by you
Always moving forward, it's all you can do
Now I just get better, not bitter 'bout you
That was just the old me
Now I just get better, not sheltered by you
Always moving forward, it's all you can do
Now I just get better, not bitter 'bout you
That was just the old me
[Solo: Justice Der]
[Chorus]
Now I just get better, not sheltered by you
Always moving forward, it's all you can do
Now I just get better, not bitter 'bout you
That was just the old me
Now I just get better, not sheltered by you
Always moving forward, it's all you can do
Now I just get better, not bitter 'bout you
That was just the old me
(That was just the old me)
(I just keep on moving)
(I just keep on moving)
(I just keep on moving)
(That was just the old me)
[Chorus]
Now I just get better, not sheltered by you
Always moving forward, it's all you can do
Now I just get better, not bitter 'bout you
That was just the old me
