About the song
The lyrics emphasize self-acceptance and rejecting the need for drama or chaos in life. The singer is content with a simple, steady life and doesn’t feel the need to change or invite unnecessary complications, embracing being “basic” and avoiding the “crazy.”
I don’t need the rain on my parade
I don’t need the drama for a play
I don’t need the push and pull away
I don’t need the fight to win the game
Can someone explain why we think that
Love needs to hurt and that joy comes with pain
I’m just living my life
I don’t need to change me
I’m good without the crazy
I’m doin’ just fine
Go and call me basic
I’m good without the crazy
I don’t need the bumps in the road
I just keep it steady as I go
So if you wanna spin out of control
Go ahead but do it when I’m gone
‘cause I ain’t got time and I got goals
I’m just living my life
I don’t need to change me
I’m good without the crazy
I’m doin’ just fine
Go and call me basic
I’m good without the crazy
Why do we believe that the best always comes with the worst
Can someone explain why we think that love needs to hurt
I’m just living my life
I don’t need to change me
I’m good without the crazy
I’m doin’ just fine
Go and call me basic
I’m good without the crazy
