[Verse 1]
I went back home
I saw the people that I used to know
(Ooh)
I'm on my own
Just like the others out there
Guess I feel alone
(Ooh)
[Chorus]
You say, "Brother, hold it down and
It's all easy."
But don't you see I'm trying to let it all be?
I said I didn't want it
Now there's nothing for me
[Verse 2]
I went back home
I saw the people that I used to know
(Ooh)
I'm on my own
Just like the others out there
Guess I feel alone
(Ooh)
[Chorus]
They say, "Sister, come down easy
Show me nothing."
But don't you see that I can't go for a day
Without that little something
Coming my way?
I said I didn't want it
Now there's nothing for me
But can't you see I'm trying
Just trying to be?
