Yes I am Selfish
Yes I am selfish cos I am living my life and not yours,
Yes I am selfish cos it makes me happy without curse,
Yes I am selfish cause I dont want to share my people with others ,
Oh yes yes I am selfish cause I want to live my life on my own terms!
I am selfish i agree,
And my eyes are brighter just see,
I know i am selfish but thats not my only flaw,
To be selfish is not breaking any law,
I am one of my type,
Like billions others like me serving time,
Oh yes yes I am selfish because I want to live a life which is mine!
