[Verse 1:]
I had to clear my mind cause theyre envious
You know that some things just dont change
Started rumors, spread lies about me
Tried to decompose my name
-
See, the shady sisters they be watchin me
I got shady n****s gettin next to me
Try to get some of this, see what Im about
Thinkin Im an easy prey and they can dog me
out
-
But I tells them no
Im trying to be all I can be
Its kind of funny cause they keep on
Talkin trash about me
They know nothin bout me
So tell me why
[Chorus:]
Why is everybody so envious
You know that envy never dies
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life (Oh)
-
Why is everybody so envious
You know that envy never dies
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life
[Verse 2:]
See, they envious about the moves I make
I aint afraid to take a chance
See, they envious because I cant just stop
Even envious about my man
-
While theyre busy talkin, I just keep on walkin
Cause it doesnt mean a thing
See, your sticks and stones they may break my
bones
But the words will never hurt me
-
Cause I let it go
Im trying to be all I can be
Its kind of funny cause they keep on
Talkin trash about me
They know nothin bout me
Tell me why
[Chorus:]
Why is everybody so envious
You know that envy never dies (Envy never
dies)
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life (Way I live my life)
-
Why is everybody so envious (Oh...oh...)
You know that envy never dies (No, no, no)
Need to raise up off of me (I) and worry bout
yourself (I)
Not the way I live my life (Way I live my life)
-
Why is everybody so envious (Oh...)
You know that envy never dies (No, it never,
never dies)
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life (Way I live my life)
-
Why is everybody so envious (Ooh...ooh...)
You know that envy never dies
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life
[Bridge]
Tell the truth about ya
So Im better off without ya (Better)
Now that Im gone (Stronger), need to leave me
alone (Need to)
Im strong on my own (Strong on my own),
think I need you, youre wrong
-
Wanna tell the truth about ya
So Im better off without ya (Yeah, yeah)
Now that Im gone, need to leave me alone
(No, no, no, no)
Im strong on my own, think I need you, youre
wrong
[Chorus:]
Why is everybody so envious (Why is
everybody so envious)
You know that envy never dies (I dont
understand)
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself (I dont understand)
Not the way I live my life (Those shady sisters
they be watchin me)
-
Why is everybody so envious
You know that envy never dies (Why is
everybody so envious)
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life
-
Why is everybody so envious (Mind your
business)
You know that envy never dies
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself (Really need to mind your business)
Not the way I live my life
-
Why is everybody so envious (See, your sticks
and stones they may break my bones)
You know that envy never dies (But your
words, words will never hurt me)
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life (No)
-
Why is everybody so envious
You know that envy never dies
Need to raise up off of me and worry bout
yourself
Not the way I live my life
[Fadeout]
Why is everybody so envious
You know that envy never dies
