Envelope Quintet
-happy-

Asking me if I’m happy, yes, I’m so happy right now, 
Nothing can describe how happy I feel because I’m free. 
I don’t need anyone to do what I want. 
No commitment, nothing, I don’t need anyone over me. 
I’m determined, for under anyone, I refuse to bow. 


Asking if I’m happy, yes, I overjoyed right now, 
Nothing can describe how happy I feel because I feel love. 
I don’t need anyone to love. 
No commitment, nothing, I will make sure I rise above. 
I’m not saying I don’t need you, but you don’t anyhow. 


Asking me if I’m happy, yes, I bursting with happiness, 
Nothing can describe how happy I feel because I am “Me.”
I don’t need anyone to love myself. 
No commitment, I don’t need anyone to be what I want to be,
I’m determined, I have a future, it’s time for you to witness. 

Notes: We, as humans, don't need anyone to have a bright future. I'm not saying I don't want what you're giving, but you couldn't give me that.
