I listen to this song so much sometimes it have me crying an sometimes it doesn't. But I will never give up in life I'm blessed buy the bless an that Jesus his self. I been on lower Wacker drive homeless an everything.☺️☺️☺️☺️
This song is the story of my life. One day I woke up and decided, "I don't need no one to put me down I'm on the ground, can't get no lower And I don't need no one to hang around and make me frown just makes me look older And I don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies Don't wanna cry over nobody else No, no, no, no, I can do bad all by myself," so packed up and left with two children. That was 30 years ago. Never looked back.
Man this hits home in the deepest of ways. Only difference is that my pain came from my family. It would be a beautiful thing to have true love and unity from your tribe but let's not forget one vital thing.. there is no rule that is written in spiritual blood that says that the family that we were born into has to accept and love us. My acceptance came from non blood friends. We share a love and acceptance of one another that no blood family could ever compare to. Love does not come from blood.. it is born and cultivated within the heart. This is as real as it gets. Can anyone relate and understand my words? I smile and I am loved and my world is graced with peace.
+Randy Tate Yes I can. My family did not accept me when I came out. I was 18 then, now I'm 50. It took some time, but they finally came to understand my life was not their fault, or something they did or didn't do, I was born this way. I love my family and they love me for me. I also have a large extended family of people who love me for me
I overcame heroine addiction I have over 3 years clean in recovery today was bullied and beaten down everyday hurt and backstab plus had adusive relationships today I'm a stronger person.
This song has pulled me through some especially hard times, but none harder than finding out I'm pregnant at 17. I play this whenever I start to lose hope.
Baby girl keep him first and always remember misery loves company. What I mean by that when the negative comes listen to this song so much truth and life lessons. Love you 1st know that you are beautiful and wonderful. I am far from 17 however it took me to be in my late 30's to start knowing my self worth. God always has you
"they're telling me the grass might just be greener on the other side but I don't wanna take a chance on dirt when I got grass even though the grass has died" 😢😢
I've never heard this song on the radio. A shame. My favorite Mary J song. .....sometimes family can abuse and take advantage of you much worse than strangers and enemies. This song helps me to rise above the nonsense. Thanks Mary
I thought being single was the scariest thing in the world until I was put in the situation to experience it.When I was sick and tired of exactly what Mary is singing about I then decided to deal with me, allow God to work on me and I then realized that I was never alone.
Facts...the wrong person will make you feel sooo bad about lifes changes some times unintentional sometimes intentional...sometimes being alone doing the work on u in the KEY
Emotional abuse is equally as terrible and testifying,. Bruises heal, not to diminish anyone's pain, but two nervous breakdowns later, psychiatrists , counseling, and stents in mental health programs almost made me walk away from God. Yes, it's all my fault, according to him. I walked away five years ago. I don't hate him. But, I'm over it now. And, I'm still standing.
Sometimes we have to break our own heart temporarily to stop somebody else from breaking our heart for a lifetime. It's hard to walk away from someone we love, we would fight for, we would risk it all for...but when "We" is just you, and they don't desire the responsibility of doing the work, we have to respect their right and our life.
Yes!! Exactly, I was doing everything in my relationship with my partner of 5yrs and after he graduated nursing school he broke up with me, paying for all his shit and he just never gave me the effort or time
I just went to a Mary J concert with my husband 2 months ago. I have loved her for as long as I can remember. There is NOTHING that compares to seeing this incredible woman perform live!!! "Artists" today, don't sing with the passion that Mary does. Just amazing!
Don't need no one to put me down, the ground can get no lower... don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies don't wanna rock ova, nobody else. I can do bad all by myself. Deep lyrics, especially if you went through some madness like the words in this song.
Somebody told me once That pain is a game we all gotta play Then why am I in overtime And sudden death every other day I know that for the good of life There's a price we all gotta pay But I'll pay 'till I'm poor and I still don't know What it is to have a good day Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do Well do me a favor, Let me worry 'bout me And you worry 'bout you I don't need no one to put me down I'm on the ground, can't get no lower And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown Just makes me look older And I don't need no one to black my eye An' tell me lies Don't wanna cry over nobody else I can do bad all by myself Somebody told me once that runnin' from the rain don't make no sense I had my own dark cloud For awhile now, It goes where ever I'm goin' You're tellin' me the grass might be greener on the other side But I don't wanna take a chance on dirt When I got grass Even though the grass has died Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do Well do me a favor, Let me worry 'bout me And you worry 'bout you I don't need no one to put me down I'm on the ground, can't get no lower And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown Just makes me look older And I don't need no one to black my eye An' tell me lies Don't wanna cry over nobody else I can do bad all by myself Don't waste time feelin' bad for me I didn't ask you for your sympathy I know God is watchin' over me So I guess this is where I'm suppose to be I don't need no one to put me down I'm on the ground, can't get no lower And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown Just makes me look older And I don't need no one to black my eye An' tell me lies Don't wanna cry over nobody else I can do bad And I don't need no one to put me down I'm on the ground, can't get no lower And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown Just makes me look older And I don't need no one to black my eye An' tell me lies Don't wanna cry over nobody, nobody, nobody else Cause I can do bad all by myself But enjoy!!
Love your music Mary j blige thanks for that sounds so true u have a beautiful voice u also are beautiful lady keep it up mary one love my sister bless up angle Jenny from st Vincent West indies
This song breaks my heart & gives me strength at the same time. I've replied before. This could have been the greatest soundtrack ever. Unfortunately, the different recording companies of all the artists of this movie couldn't let that happen.
this is by far the best version of this! mary shows off her true power in this... i remember just watching the movie for her performance of this song... just amazing!!!
I've been diagnosed with CFS/ME a disabling disease that involves fatigue, everyone tells me I'm lazy and need to exercise, I can listen to this song 1thousand times
Lori Favela ....this song is what I needed right now. I have Fibromyalgia a illness that has no cure or treatments for. I hear it all the time what I should or shouldn't do from people that do not have it, they do not know how this feels and how fake cures I have ran to ...and did not work ...some think I am just being negative, I wish that was it, 12 years sick. I can do bad all by myself that is for sure
Ariana Mitteff this told someone did it told Niocle Sam remember that told it not see it someone told you leave it alone u are you talkin to her saying hurt him cuz know playing games she knows it told u Tina johnpier don't know went tell him because he gets mad at her she not his mom say that ues people are telling business u Tina johnpier is not going to be able to keep doing it u engagement ring u having it know it took from u Tina johnpier text u are not getting stuff do worried about it someone has other people he already knows it he told her last name is spelled Mrs Frazier back in ECMC are going to have it done talk fank is going not reailt to someone is SAR c is going telling you it was guess it right now k knew you family knows set up users weddings u are wedding is still on his name is is do it with Drew Fraser she said you help with you
Ive been dealing with a very abusive husband. Not physical... Mental and emotional. I have been diagnosed with major depression and severe anxiety. My husband does not support me. He blames me for everything and emotionally abuses me by asking me to engage in sexual activity with other men. This song gives me hope and strength. Love u Mary J.
That is just as bad as physical abuse. I've been through it all but I finally woke up and left those men abused me. Yes you heard that MEN. Yes it happens because we find ourselves going back into the same relationship. But I never went back once I left. Life is to precious and to short to waste.
Never really cared for Mary, till I saw "I Can Do Bad All By Myself". Now iI listen to her music, and like her. Sing it Sister!!!!!!!!!!!! We all have been there in one way or another. Bless those who have gotten out and help those who have not.
people always tlkin down on me!! especially people who don't know me!! well do me a favor let me worry bout me, nd you worry bout you!! I can do bad all by MYSELF!!!
Sanita Brown i get that a lot too people coming down on you cause their lives suck . But you know in your heart you’re doing what’s good for you let em talk cause at the end of the day remember “ sticks and stoned can break my bones but words will never hurt me”
My mother was a single mother for 16 years and me and my lil bro always took her for ganted, I'm now 17 and I can finally see my mom was battling so much. She WON against cancer, and I never even knew, she is raising 2 kids (me and my borther) with no child support from either one of our dead beat fathers. My mom works 12 hour shifts almost everyday. I never knew how strong my mom was until now. And this song always reminds me of her because this song defines her life so much. My mom is now married happily and still working her ass of to provide for me and my bother and step siblings. I'm 17 and finally just starting to see how Incredible black women (mothers) truly our. I am glade to have a mom like mine. Thanks for hearing my story, and thanks to everyone who contributed to this song. It truly did change my view on single mothers.
I am going through a divorce nowadays, and I still love her so much! This song helps me so much! God! I m feeling so lonely. Thank you Tyler Perry for making this movie! God bless you!!!
Kenan Ustunisik You can get through it! Keep God and family around you. You're never alone! Plus people in the comments will always have encouragement for you!😘❤️💪🏾
I love this song it's so true it hurts thinking about my situation but the Lord will reveal everything in his timing once i know i can't go back not knowing i must remember that everything happens for a reason and all things work out for the good for those who love the Lord he always warn us first before anything thank u Lord for loving me amen
I have a lot of medical problems and had to have back surgery last August and then had a heart attack in March. People always have their opinions about what i should do but only God knows what I truly go through. This song sums up all my feelings about those people's opinions
How in God's name could 202 people give this a thumbs down vote? Personally I think they missed the whole point of music. To have a band of great musicians mix with an incredible talent straight from God Himself like Mary J. Blige pour out her soul like this so it just grabs you by the soul. Man. I guess I really liked this song! Dang!
I've always said that vocal wise, she may not be the best agility and range wise, but her ability to make you feel her music is something that every other singer doesn't have.
the story of my life. this song is why I let all negativity leave my life. it's not worth your health and happiness to hold on to something/someone God is telling you to let go of. I CAN do bad all by myself, but I'd rather do good with God.
Listening to this song bring back remembers of my past relationship wasn't good physical and verbal abuse from my exes I am very bless that I was able to get out of the relationships alive
Been sick for 12 yrs,everyone has the answers but nothing has ever worked for me. They believe it's just being negative,I really wish that is all it was. Man this song hits home for me. No one understands how bad this illness is and most don't care to know because it isn't deadly,funny thing is ..it is ...inflammation around the heart causing heart attacks,no signs,no symptoms,don't even know when it will hit. The pain gets to be so bad that all you can do is cry. We just want to feel normal. Music is a huge part of coping,thank you for that
When I first heard this song I fall in love with this song and ever since then I have listen to this song everyday because it just get me through life and its challenges this song is like a mother to me because it guides me through the storms and rains
Mmmmm Ohh ohh Ah yea Ah ah yea [Verse 1] Somebody told me once that pain is a game we all gotta play. Then why am I in overtime and sudden death every other day. I know that for the good of life there's a price we all gotta pay But I'll pay till I'm poor and I still don't know what it is to have a good day, yeah Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do. Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me and you worry bout you. [Chorus:] I don't need no one to put me down, I'm on the ground, can't get no lower. And I don't need no one to hang around and make me frown just makes me look older. And I don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies Don't wanna cry over nobody else No no no no I can do bad all by myself [Verse 2] Somebody told me once that running from the rain don't make no sense. I had my own dark cloud for awhile now, it goes where ever I'm going, yeah They're telling me the grass just might be greener on the other side. But I don't wanna take a chance on dirt when I got grass even though the grass has died. Oh since everybody knows what it is that I need to do, Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me and you worry bout you [Chorus] [Bridge:] Don't waste time feeling bad for me I didn't ask you for your sympathy No I know God is watching over me So I guess this is where I'm suppose to be Ohh yes [Chorus to the end]

“Don’t waste time feeling bad for me, I didn’t ask you for your sympathy.”
My favorite line of the song!

This song is the story of my life. One day I woke up and decided, "I don't need no one to put me down
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower
And I don't need no one to hang around and make me frown just makes me look older
And I don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
No, no, no, no, I can do bad all by myself," so packed up and left with two children. That was 30 years ago. Never looked back.

The scene when she was singing the song, had me crying. Because I could see the pain, April was carrying. 😔

I’m glad y’all had fun
Don't need no one to put me down, the ground can get no lower... don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies don't wanna rock ova, nobody else. I can do bad all by myself. Deep lyrics, especially if you went through some madness like the words in this song.
Belkis Martinez "tell me lies, don't wanna cry over nobody else"
Jordan Davis 19 Went This Through Some
Somebody told me once
That pain is a game we all gotta play
Then why am I in overtime
And sudden death every other day
I know that for the good of life
There's a price we all gotta pay
But I'll pay 'till I'm poor and I still don't know
What it is to have a good day
Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do
Well do me a favor,
Let me worry 'bout me
And you worry 'bout you
I don't need no one to put me down
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower
And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown
Just makes me look older
And I don't need no one to black my eye
An' tell me lies
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
I can do bad all by myself
Somebody told me once that runnin' from the rain don't make no sense
I had my own dark cloud
For awhile now,
It goes where ever I'm goin'
You're tellin' me the grass might be greener on the other side
But I don't wanna take a chance on dirt
When I got grass
Even though the grass has died
Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do
Well do me a favor,
Let me worry 'bout me
And you worry 'bout you
I don't need no one to put me down
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower
And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown
Just makes me look older
And I don't need no one to black my eye
An' tell me lies
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
I can do bad all by myself
Don't waste time feelin' bad for me
I didn't ask you for your sympathy
I know God is watchin' over me
So I guess this is where I'm suppose to be
I don't need no one to put me down
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower
And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown
Just makes me look older
And I don't need no one to black my eye
An' tell me lies
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
I can do bad
And I don't need no one to put me down
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower
And I don't need no one to hang around an' make me frown
Just makes me look older
And I don't need no one to black my eye
An' tell me lies
Don't wanna cry over nobody, nobody, nobody else
Cause I can do bad all by myself
But enjoy!!
You'll never know how many millions of people this song may touch.Never under estimate the power of music❤❤

This song breaks my heart & gives me strength at the same time. I've replied before. This could have been the greatest soundtrack ever. Unfortunately, the different recording companies of all the artists of this movie couldn't let that happen.
🔥"Can't get no lower," really resonates to me.✊🔥

Ive been dealing with a very abusive husband. Not physical... Mental and emotional. I have been diagnosed with major depression and severe anxiety. My husband does not support me. He blames me for everything and emotionally abuses me by asking me to engage in sexual activity with other men. This song gives me hope and strength. Love u Mary J.
Janay Daniel leave
Leave and look for a better life u deserve it
Divorce him. You don't have to put up with that. You deserve to be loved, honored, and cherished.
The Almighty be with you
That is just as bad as physical abuse. I've been through it all but I finally woke up and left those men abused me. Yes you heard that MEN. Yes it happens because we find ourselves going back into the same relationship. But I never went back once I left. Life is to precious and to short to waste.
I love Mary j. What a great lady and she makes the best music for women.
And us gay guys ❤
Never really cared for Mary, till I saw "I Can Do Bad All By Myself". Now iI listen to her music, and like her. Sing it Sister!!!!!!!!!!!! We all have been there in one way or another. Bless those who have gotten out and help those who have not.
Amen
Bless us all!
Thomas George shes the bomb, darn listen to her voice, it has POWER IN IT!!!
I felt the same too though I never been in situations as these, I have notice family and friends going through battered and bruised.
You should watch the video for no more drama live. It was shortly after 9/11. She nailed it.

I Can Do Bad All By Myself😘
My mother was a single mother for 16 years and me and my lil bro always took her for ganted, I'm now 17 and I can finally see my mom was battling so much. She WON against cancer, and I never even knew, she is raising 2 kids (me and my borther) with no child support from either one of our dead beat fathers. My mom works 12 hour shifts almost everyday. I never knew how strong my mom was until now. And this song always reminds me of her because this song defines her life so much. My mom is now married happily and still working her ass of to provide for me and my bother and step siblings. I'm 17 and finally just starting to see how Incredible black women (mothers) truly our. I am glade to have a mom like mine. Thanks for hearing my story, and thanks to everyone who contributed to this song. It truly did change my view on single mothers.

She is so beautiful. I love her music. she tells the truth about what us strong black woman every where.
Those electric guitar chords really set it over the top ... so good.
I love this song it's so true it hurts thinking about my situation but the Lord will reveal everything in his timing once i know i can't go back not knowing i must remember that everything happens for a reason and all things work out for the good for those who love the Lord he always warn us first before anything thank u Lord for loving me amen
I so love this song....
I can relate to the song
I'm still rockin out with Mary in 2018...don't waste yo time feelin bad for me I don't need no sympathy👊✊💪
Ended a 11 year unhealthy relationship...
La'Quinta Jones stay strong sis 💖💖
Good for you. Hope your doing better now after that...
@@destiny9253 Thanks Boo💪🏽Im sorry for late reply Im just now seeing this❤
@@laniyahbarrett3860 Yes so much better😊 Stronger than ever💪🏽❤ GOD is good😉
QUEEN !
The piano and the violins bring the words down to the bottom line..... ....the best song she has ever sung
I have a lot of medical problems and had to have back surgery last August and then had a heart attack in March. People always have their opinions about what i should do but only God knows what I truly go through. This song sums up all my feelings about those people's opinions
How in God's name could 202 people give this a thumbs down vote? Personally I think they missed the whole point of music. To have a band of great musicians mix with an incredible talent straight from God Himself like Mary J. Blige pour out her soul like this so it just grabs you by the soul. Man. I guess I really liked this song! Dang!
Ken Cordle agreed
Because people who disliked this weren't doing it in God's name
I so wish this had been released as a single...I go back to it so often
Sadly.. so many can relate to this song.. she is singing from her depths as she speaks of her own story and.. so many others..
Mary is an effective singer. She knows how to convey emotions. She knows her strengths and her limitations
I've always said that vocal wise, she may not be the best agility and range wise, but her ability to make you feel her music is something that every other singer doesn't have.
When I hear this song it makes me realize how strong I can be without me ex's and all the people who tried to put me down think again 💯💪
Got me through the toughest time of my life.
If he makes you cry more than he makes you smile...it's time to make some new choices
GIRL WHO YOU TELLING?
the story of my life. this song is why I let all negativity leave my life. it's not worth your health and happiness to hold on to something/someone God is telling you to let go of. I CAN do bad all by myself, but I'd rather do good with God.
Tell it Julia !!!!!!
Let Go Let God
He can do far better we can EVER imagine
Love this song/ sing it girl!!
I love this song so much-- it is so meaningful, mindful, and moving.
What are you doing Thanksgiving 💜💜💜💜💜
Jordan Davis 19 This And So
What’s it called
@@ii.heart.giigii I can do bad all by myself
"I'm Going Down" and "I Can Do Bad All By Myself"
you got something here, lady!
Listening to this song bring back remembers of my past relationship wasn't good physical and verbal abuse from my exes I am very bless that I was able to get out of the relationships alive
Me
People don't understand that you can do bad by yourself and do good at the same time
Same survived 15 staples in my head from my ex wife
Been sick for 12 yrs,everyone has the answers but nothing has ever worked for me. They believe it's just being negative,I really wish that is all it was. Man this song hits home for me. No one understands how bad this illness is and most don't care to know because it isn't deadly,funny thing is ..it is ...inflammation around the heart causing heart attacks,no signs,no symptoms,don't even know when it will hit. The pain gets to be so bad that all you can do is cry. We just want to feel normal. Music is a huge part of coping,thank you for that
chrystal Augustyniak your in my prayers
I'm so, so, sorry. I hope that you get better.
chrystal never give up, never give up, never give up.
🙏🏽
I❤ this song it's a testimony of my relationship.
When I first heard this song I fall in love with this song and ever since then I have listen to this song everyday because it just get me through life and its challenges this song is like a mother to me because it guides me through the storms and rains
the movie is really good
Mmmmm
Ohh ohh
Ah yea
Ah ah yea
[Verse 1]
Somebody told me once that pain is a game we all gotta play.
Then why am I in overtime and sudden death every other day.
I know that for the good of life there's a price we all gotta pay
But I'll pay till I'm poor and I still don't know what it is to have a good day, yeah
Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do.
Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me and you worry bout you.
[Chorus:]
I don't need no one to put me down,
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower.
And I don't need no one to hang around and make me frown just makes me look older.
And I don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
No no no no I can do bad all by myself
[Verse 2]
Somebody told me once that running from the rain don't make no sense.
I had my own dark cloud for awhile now, it goes where ever I'm going, yeah
They're telling me the grass just might be greener on the other side.
But I don't wanna take a chance on dirt when I got grass even though the grass has died.
Oh since everybody knows what it is that I need to do,
Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me and you worry bout you
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Don't waste time feeling bad for me
I didn't ask you for your sympathy
No I know God is watching over me
So I guess this is where I'm suppose to be
Ohh yes
[Chorus to the end]

This song reminds me when I told someone; misery don't need no damn company, leave that alone. You gotta all summed up in this song.
most beautiful songs I ever heard
That's right I don't need nobody in my life who is going to drag me down!!! I walked away from my family because they are the true definition of CRAZY!!! Please I don't need the stress. Sometimes you just have to walk away because it's what is best.
I don’t need no one to tell me how to control my self because one day when I’m grown they go see me working harder and harder 👊🏽👊🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🤞🏽 and GOD is GOOD
This song SLAPS
