You better quit trying to live my life for me
You better quit trying stop nagging me so constantly
You better quit trying, I just want for you to let me be
Cause I've got who I want to show me the way.
I Don't need sympathy so please go your way.
Go away you hypocrite go away
O promise is a comfort to a fool

I dont need no sympathy you hypocrite go away-
And please don't you sorry for me you hypocrite go away-o
Cause since I've seen the light
You dont know what its done for me
And its such a fight only who'se

You better quit trying
For they can make this place a better land

They got their own mind. They too can lead the way
They can make the garden red, gold and green for little children to play
