I just wanna be something Take it easy on me Love is meant to breathe not break, oh IĀ“m gonna be something
So bare with me (Oh-oh, oh) DonĀ“t bury me (Oh-oh, oh-oh) So bare with me (Oh-oh, oh) DonĀ“t bury me Before IĀ“m something
I was just a young lilĀ“ black girl On my grind for diamonds and pearls Flow so sick, man, I might hurl Out grind everyone Ā“fore they give me the world But yeah, God, let it be, I got the energy IĀ“m representing You, I ainĀ“t your enemy Putting in work like thereĀ“s ten of me Do it for my young GĀ“s and the family And IĀ“m far from perfect, any beat, I merk it Say they want the heat, warm it up and I serve it Talking on my name like I donĀ“t deserve it Like I got all of this success from twerking
Know IĀ“ma win, getting it in, all that I bring From the looks to the sound, I gave them everything IĀ“ma always speak my truth, itĀ“s coming straight from within For my girls in the school and my boys on the wing (Ayy)
I just wanna be something Take it easy on me Love is meant to breathe not break, oh IĀ“m gonna be something
So bare with me (Oh-oh, oh) DonĀ“t bury me (Oh-oh, oh-oh) So bare with me (Oh-oh, oh) DonĀ“t bury me Before IĀ“m something
They just me shining, they donĀ“t know about the pain (Uh) ThereĀ“s some shit I been through, I canĀ“t talk about again (Yeah) They knew me in the hood before I had a music name (WhoĀ“s that?) So just give me the money, give a fuck about the fame (Real shit) I remember the days that I didnĀ“t have shit Got it out the dirt, some time it hurts to reminisce (Uh) Used to pissy lifts, council housing benefits (Yeah) Now IĀ“m in a high rise, forty floors inna this IĀ“m just, IĀ“m just tryna be great but time donĀ“t wait Had a lot up on my plate but I couldnĀ“t make weight
Every time I talk to Ā“em, make sure it penetrates Private number place, but I let God navigate (Ooh) Look, I been confused and been abused, I canĀ“t lose (Nah) IĀ“ve done every move, bit of swiping, moved food (Yeah) Said I would end up dead or in jail but I refuse (Refuse) When freedomĀ“s on the table, tell me what would you choose?
I just wanna be something Take it easy on me Love is meant to breathe not break, oh IĀ“m gonna be something
So bare with me (Oh-oh, oh)
DonĀ“t bury me (Oh-oh, oh-oh) So bare with me (Oh-oh, oh) DonĀ“t bury me Before IĀ“m something
DonĀ“t bury me (Ooh) DonĀ“t bury me (No, no, no) DonĀ“t bury me DonĀ“t bury me (No, no)
