May not move how you movin’
May not have what you have on
May not drive what you driving, oh no
May not be who you choosing, oh no
Don’t need no validatiooon
Might not be in the club that you want me to be
Might not look at the world like you want me to see
May not live the lie you want me to portray now
Won’t lose myself now
Being me is my only hobby (ay)
My heartbeat makes me happy
What I need around is family, not you
Not ashamed of being lonely
Won’t depend on people and let me down
Only God can judge me, not you (oh na oh na)
May not move how you movin’ (oh no)
May not have what you have on (oh no)
May not drive what you driving, oh no
May not be who you choosing, oh no
Don’t need no validation, oh no, oh no
Don’t need no validatiooon, oh no
Nevermind what you’re thinking
Don’t need no validatiooon
May not .. you want me to reach (and you want me to reach)
May not tell all the stories you want me to preach (and you want me to preach)
But my self-esteem flying higher than a cloud now (higher than a cloud now)
Alongside my soul now (alongside my soul now, yeah)
Being me is my only hobby
My heartbeat makes me happy
What I need around is family, not you (oh na oh na oh)
Not ashamed of being lonely (ay)
Won’t depend on people and let me down
Only God can judge me, not you (oh na oh na)
May not move how you movin’ (oh no)
May not have what you have on (oh no)
May not drive what you driving, oh no
May not be who you choosing, oh no
Don’t need no validatiooon, oh no, oh no
Don’t need no validatiooon, oh no
Nevermind what you’re thinking
Don’t need no validatiooon
Don’t need no validation
Don’t need no validatiooon, oh no, oh no
Don’t need no validatiooon, oh no
Nevermind what you’re thinking
