"my own best friend" lyrics

Hey
I been tryna be my own friend lately
Oh-oh
But babe
I been feeling like my mind betrayed me

Like I remember all the disses and forget all the praise
I made up a bunch of limits and got stuck in my ways
Tell myself that I'ma quit it, but I still feel the same
Maybe it's all in my brain

If I'm tryna be my own best friend
Then why am I my own worst critic?
If I'm tryna cure my loneliness
Then why don't I respond to any women?
If I wanna figure out why the world goes round
Then maybe I should leave my house
I been tryna be my own best friend
But lately it won't let me in

Check my DMs, need validation
Body in pals, but mind in the basement
I'm making friends now, but feel like they fake it
Question they motives and question they statements
Like am I deserving, could I be the person
That everyone says that I can?
They tell me I'm perfect, they say that I'm worth it
So why don't I feel like I am?

If I'm tryna be my own best friend
Then why am I my own worst critic?
If I'm tryna cure my loneliness
Then why don't I respond to any women?
If I wanna figure out why the world goes round
Then maybe I should leave my house
I been tryna be my own best friend
But lately it won't let me in
