Mary J. Blige - Doubt lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

They said I’d neva be a leader

They said I’d neva wear a crown

If I wanted to be someone

I should learn to settle down

(Pre-Chorus)

You should know betta (I tell myself)

You’ll neva go furtha (I warned myself)

You’ll neva be betta (ya don’t know me that well)

(Chorus)

I made it to the end, I nearly paid the cost

I lost a lotta friends, I sacrificed a lot

I’d do it all again cause I made it to the top

But I can’t keep doubtin' myself anymo', no

(Verse 2)

Now you’re lookin' at a leada

Now you’re starin' at a queen

You’d said I’d neva be someone

But I’m pullin' those strings

(Pre-Chorus)

You should know betta (I tell myself)

You’ll neva go furtha (I warned myself)

You’ll neva be betta (ya don’t know me that well)

(Chorus)

I made it to the end, I nearly paid the cost

I lost a lotta friends, I sacrificed a lot

I’d do it all again cause I made it to the top

But I can’t keep doubtin' myself anymo', no

(Bridge)

Ya think ya know, but ya don’t know the half

Ya think ya beat me down, but I’ll have the last laugh

I’ll keep gettin' up, cause that’s what I want 2 do

I’m goin' 2 be the best me, I’m sorry if it kills ya

(Chorus)

I made it to the end, I nearly paid the cost

I lost a lotta friends, I sacrificed a lot

I’d do it all again cause I made it to the top

But I can’t keep doubtin' myself anymo'
