Less of You
Embracing Independence: 'Less of You' by Johanna Samuels Unveils Liberation
Lyrics
I looked in on a friend today
I visited a friend today.
She hadn't been herself but she seemed good today
My friend hasn't been herself lately, but today she appeared well.
She's filling up her skin and uninhibited grin
She's gaining confidence and displaying a carefree smile.
I got so worried when she couldn't find her way
I became concerned when she couldn't find her way.
She let some guys take her out
She allowed some guys to take her out.
And they tried to hold her close, but she is not about
They tried to be close to her, but she resisted.
To let their words turn to dust
She won't let their words be meaningless.
She knows the world isn't just
She acknowledges the world's complexity.
She says, "Send them home. Keep yourself safe."
She advises, "Send them home. Prioritize your safety."
And I rarely think about you
I seldom think about you.
And when I do
When I do think of you,
I couldn't think less of you
I think very little of you.
She never used to know what she liked
She used to be uncertain about her preferences.
It gets easier to get in touch at night
It's easier for her to connect at night.
With knowing when you're done
Understanding when a relationship is over.
Not to exist for someone
Not existing solely for someone else.
You can spend a lifetime just making that alright
It takes a lifetime to make things right.
And I rarely think about you
I rarely think about you.
And when I do
When I do think about you,
I couldn't think less
I think very little of you.
Why'd you have to go and leave your shit?
Why did you leave your problems behind?
Kept her small and she'll just have to handle it
Your issues kept her small, and now she has to cope with them.
Oh to be a man
Reflecting on the challenges of being a man.
Since you're always thinking of you
As you're always self-centered,
I don't have to
I don't need to be.
And while I wish you all the best
While I wish you the best,
I could do with so much less
I could do with much less of you.
No I couldn't think less of you
I have a very low opinion of you.
