[Verse 1: Ari Lennox]
I don't wanna be strong for you today
I'm leanin' towards the light
Listenin' for instruction from the spirit guides
As the sun hits my face, it welcomes me
To go down the strong narrative
That's been holdin' me for a while

[Chorus: Ari Lennox]
Why can't I just be every part of me?
Of me
Why can't I just be every part of me?
Don't wanna be strong today

[Verse 2: Ari Lennox]
I looked at my skin
Started wondering
When it would not be a factor in this world I live in
If I say I love myself, you say it's revolutionary
I decided it's good for my health
To drop that heaviness upon me
Oh, why?

[Chorus: Ari Lennox]
Why can't I just be (Just be), еvery part of me? (Every part)
Of mе (Of me)
Why can't I just be every part of me?
Don't wanna be strong today
[Outro: Ari Lennox]
Ooh
I don't wanna eye my joy for him
No, don't call me strong
