Lyrics

I grew up without a role model
My papa a globetrotter
Saw my bro got a rock out of some stove water
We in two places
Where kicks hang by the shoelaces
Whole forest inside of suitcases
Two faces
Who appalled? Not the way you planned it
Not your calling, ain't the fall, it's the way you landed
Deuce and a quarter, no saving the planet
Just trying to make a book from the aces I'm handed
Felt abandoned 'til I ran with bandits
Pardon my manners, see I'm rarely ever satisfied
Part of the grammar, damn I got more bars than a slammer
In due time, dropping rhymes on the mirror and I
Go line for line but you get it right
Watch them slime mold **** out the nick at night
Y'all mind when it's fire and don't flick it twice
I might howl at the moon from the basement
Trying to get to the upper room, basically arrival
I'm a jealous girl
Living in a world
Where I'm always tired
Who can win this fight?
I'm a jealous girl
Living in a world
Where I'm always tired
Who can win this fight?
Yo, I have arrived, here I am in my best form
Y'all so nosy, Pinocchio, what's next for him?
Will he flop or will he excel?
What's his formula? Y'all can't tell
A whole lot of discipline mixed with faith
God got the boy winning with amazing grace
Top shelf taste but came from the lower level
The devil tried to take me out, his heart black like kettles
Cooking boy, yeah, looking for some joy, yeah
They told me I don't smile enough and I'm like "Oh yeah"
Melanin truth videos flooding YouTube
Advocate for mental health, that's what the boy do
Showing up for my brothers, I know depression's real
Encouraging therapy to tell them how you feel
It don't make you look weak, it makes you human
In our community too many blacks is ruined
I've arrived, dreams lived out
It's been some years in the making, what I'm talking 'bout
I've arrived, dreams lived out
It's been some years in the making, what I'm talking 'bout
I'm a jealous girl
Living in a world
Where I'm always tired
Who can win this fight?
I'm a jealous girl
Living in a world
Where I'm always tired
Who can win this fight?
