Another night out, the Sun is bright now
I know this lifestyle will take its toll
Imma turn the lights down, no time to fight now
We need to stop before we lose control

I'm not tryna push you away baby, girl no, no
Sometimes I just need to pump my brakes and go slow

I need some me time (oh oh)
It don't mean I don't want you
Just some I gotta do
I need some me time (oh, yeah)
Just a couple hours alone
So I can get up in my zone
I need some me time (I need it, I need it)
Always dealing with this stress
Something is pressing on my chest
I need some me time (just a little bit now)
Just a couple hours alone
So I can get up in my zone

I know you work hard, just like I work hard
Girl you know this life ain't typical
I missed your phone call 'cause I turn my phone off
I hope you don't take it personal, no

I'm not tryna push you away baby, girl no, no
Sometimes I just need to pump my brakes and go slow

I need some me time (oh, yeah)
It don't mean I don't want you
Just some I gotta do
I need some me time (oh oh)
Just a couple hours alone
So I can get up in my zone
I need some me time (I need it, I need it)
Always dealing with this stress
Something is pressing on my chest
I need some me time (girl all I need is time)
Just a couple hours alone
So I can get up in my zone

Girl I'm just keeping it real
It's getting harder to deal
Letting you know how I feel
Already know that I still want you
And I'm just telling the truth
Ain't no one loving me better than you
Just give me time and I better be cool

I need some me time (girl I'm just keeping it real)
It don't mean I don't want you
Just some I gotta do
I need some me time (oh, yeah)
Just a couple hours alone
So I can get up in my zone
I need some me time (girl I'm just keeping it real)
Always dealing with this stress
Something is pressing on my chest
I need some me time (girl I'm just keeping it real)
Just a couple hours alone
So I can get up in my zone
