Here For Me

I'm not here to provide you happiness
I'm not here to provide you love 
I'm not here to lift your spirits when you're down 

I've got my own life to live 
I have my own dreams to follow
I have my own goals to accomplish 
I'm here for me 
And I'm gonna do what it takes 
To be who I want to be 

I'm gonna be that girl you see on tv one day
I'm gonna be that girl that you read about in the news 
I'm gonna be famous somehow one day 

I'm not here for you
I'm here for me and me alone
