[Intro]
Yeah
Oh-oh
Yeah
Just wanna take my time with this
Take my time with this
And let it breathe
Oh

[Verse 1]
How did it get wrong?
Why do you talk to me like you're crazy?
That didn't take long
Alter ego has always been waitin'
Thought we had a fire
Thought we had a good thing goin'
Thought we had a ride
You're takin' me places I'm not knowin'

[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanna be seen for the man I can be
I'm not a machine, I'm just a human being
I should probably be treated like an expensive thing

[Hook]
'Cause I know my value
Even if you don't see it
I'm worth more than what you're offerin' me
And I won't be defeated
I know my value
Trust and believe it
I got more than what you could give to me
So I really don't need it
Oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Look how I treat you
I just ask you return the favor
I never cheat you
Every minute with you, I savor
Thought you felt the same
Thought you saw the king of your kingdom
Pictures in a frame
Of us together, now I want freedom

[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanna be seen for the man I can be
I'm not a machine, I'm just a human being
I should probably be treated like an expensive thing

[Hook]
'Cause I know my value
Even if you don't see it
I'm worth more than what you're offerin' me
And I won't be defeated
I know my value
Trust and believe it
I got more than what you could give to me
So I really don't need it
Oh-oh-whoa
[Verse 3]
I'm 'bout to do a new appraisal
Change the packagin' and change the labels
I'm worth more now
Yeah-yeah
You caught me when the price was stable
Now their offer's on the table
I'ma be out

[Hook]
'Cause I know my value
Even if you don't see it
I'm worth more than what you're offerin' me
And I won't be defeated
I know my value
Trust and believe it
I got more than what you could give to me
So I really don't need it

[Outro]
'Cause I know my value, yeah
Know my value, yeah
