A need is something that is necessary for organisms to live a healthy life. Needs are distinguished from wants because a deficiency would cause a clear negative outcome, such as dysfunction or death. Needs can be objective and physical, such as food, or they can be subjective and psychological, such as the need for self-esteem. On a social level, needs are sometimes controversial. Understanding needs and wants is an issue in the fields of politics, social science, and philosophy.
To most psychologists, need is a psychological feature that arouses an organism to action toward a goal, giving purpose and direction to behavior.
The most widely known academic model of needs was proposed by psychologist Abraham Maslow. In his theory, he proposed that people have a hierarchy of psychological needs, which range from security to self-actualization. However, while this model is intuitively appealing, it has been difficult to operationalize it experimentally. It was further developed by Clayton Alderfer.
Got a call
From a friend.
Tried to smile
As I lay in my bed.
All I heard
Where the voices in my head.
Why do you
Have to be
So much more
Then I could hope for me.
Honestly, all I feel is jealously.
And I know that it's wrong
My dreams were at a long
So there's no need to fight this battle every night
Cause I will get there
I have what it takes to survive.
It's over! Glad it's over!
All the doubts and questions in my head.
I'm better off without instead
Now or never, so I just gotta try
To the man I was today I say goodbye.
Tomorrow I will fly, fly, fly.
Watch me fly, fly, fly.
When they talk
When they stare.
It feels just,
Like I'm not even there.
And I say, that I don't really care.
But the truth is that it
Gets to me and it shakes my belief
In myself am what I aim to be
And I know that it's wrong
My dreams were at a long
So there's no need to fight this battle every night
Cause I will get there
I have what it takes to survive.
It's over! Glad it's over!
All the doubts and questions in my head.
I'm better off without instead
Now or never, so I just gotta try
To the man I was today I say goodbye.
And now the finish line
Seems a distant side.
But imma put my eye
On the final prize.
However it longs to takes
I will bend or break, cause this could be, the moment of my life.
It's over! Glad it's over!
All the doubts and questions in my head.
I'm better off without instead
Now or never, so I just gotta try
To the man I was today I say goodbye.
Tomorrow I will fly, fly, fly.
Watch me fly, fly, fly.
Watch me fly, fly, fly.
