I Don't Need Luck

I Don't Need Luck
Robyn Mackenzie

Draw the curtains open wide
Let the light in, chase away the night
All my demons set aside
No more fear in me, today I
Will live my truth, it's me I choose 'cause I know how to fly

I don't need luck where I'm going
I got all of my strength within me
Though I got no way of knowing
What the next trial will be
And even though the road's never ending, I am not pretending, 'cause I know, oh
I don't need luck

Never felt like this before
And I won't look back once I walk out the door
Like a ship that's leaving shore
I am not the same, no not anymore
It's like a storm that's hitting home but I can reach the sky

I don't need luck where I'm going
I got all of my strength within me
Though I got no way of knowing
What the next trial will be
And even though the road's never ending, I am not pretending, 'cause I know, oh
I don't need luck

I don't need luck, I don't need luck
I don't need luck, I don't need luck
I don't need luck, I don't need luck
I don't need luck, I don't need luck

I don't need luck where I'm going
I got all of my strength within me
Though I got no way of knowing
What the next trial will be
And even though the road's never ending, I am not pretending, 'cause I know, oh
I don't need luck

I don't need luck, I don't need luck
I don't need luck, I don't need luck
I don't need luck, I don't need luck
I don't need luck, I don't need luck

I Don't Need Luck
by The Idiot Kings

Auspicious since birth,
Fortune’s favored none like me
I have always known my worth
I’ve never needed luck, you see

When I know the outcome
When I know the outcome
I don’t need luck

Never felt pain, never saw a red light
Never thrown a punch yet never lost a fight
"A nice place to visit” in verse,
This blessing I’ve known is just a curse

When I know the outcome
When I know the outcome
When I know the outcome
When I know the outcome
I don’t need luck

I walk behind
and force a smile
pretend to laugh
at all the things I hide
I keep this a secret
all to myself
hoping that one day
you won't find out

and I don't need luck
to mess this up

I doubt you would stay
if you ever, if you ever, if you ever
saw me this way
I doubt you would mention
me by my name
yeah, I'd just want to forget
this ever happened

and I don't need luck
to mess this up

I Don’t Need Luck

I don’t need luck, if all my dreams are dead
I don’t need luck, no roses on the bed
And when I sleep, the wolves are at the door
And in the street, there’s more of them each day
I feel the heat, oh

I don’t need pain, I need a new vocation
To maintain, one that’s less destructive
To my brain, where managers don’t treat me
With disdain, I need to charge my batteries
Again, oh

I never get along with any foreign body
Doesn’t matter if I’m looking good, my small talk’s shoddy
Party people see me coming, can’t run away faster
I’ve been written off as a social disaster
Simple as it would be to keep to myself
I’ve been told to mingle for the sake of my health
Greetings on the street for the unfortunate stranger
Face it I’m bizarre, they probably think they’re in danger

Every day the same charade
Don’t know how the sausage is made
I’m not writing history
Look away there’s nothing to see

I don’t need much, I could live without
A sense of touch, for all the good it does me
In my life, with zero chance of kids
Without a wife, hoping only brings
Internal strife, oh

Every day a new collapse
I step into every trap
Forget about a legacy
Look away there’s nothing to see
