lyrics

Eligh on the beat. L. Shea on the track.

Laid back and chill that’s how I gotta be. I get too turned up they makin fun of me.
Voice gets all high ‘n s***, and these boys they appreciate quietness,
But the choice to appease and me tryna fit, matter fact step back, why you tryna diss, man?
I’m just a regular chick. Packed full of f***** awesomeness,
Been a little lawless, I tuck flaws, in charge, f*** bras,
Ignorant to the cause I’ll bring it to your front yard.
And I ain’t tryna front and be hard, I’m just a passionate chick, that flame just had to be lit so

So what you tryin to do girl?
I wanna see my little cousin come up in a new world.
And how you tryin to do that?
Beats me, in the meantime I write a few raps.
What you planning to do fam?
Learn to love the little things that make me who I am.
Word, now how you planning to do that?
I mean it’s not a plan, I’m just reaching out my hand but…

Goddammit I can’t understand it,
I mean I’m thankful for everything that I been handed,
I know it couldn’t be any better if I had planned it,
but why it so hard to find peace on the planet.

Yeah why that s*** so hard, why I gotta wait so long till I could know God?
And all her intentions, I mean I’m intent on accepting the tensions but I
Still get defensive when they begin to mention that maybe I shouldn’t be here, find this speaker offensive,
They intentionally fencing me in I cannot pretend to be anything other than what I am and that’s till the death of me,
Especially considering everything that been next to me, it’s hellish and heavenly, need a downer amphetamine woo.
Are you catching me? The feelings oh definitely, I need it so desperately but do it so effortlessly, uh huh.

So what you tryin to do girl?
I think I mean woman and I wanna see us rule the world.
And how you tryin to do that?
I dunno, write raps ‘till we fight back.
What you planning to do fam?
At least get my whole family off of food stamps.
Word, now how you planning to do that?
Don’t worry bout my plans, put a dollar in my hand.

Goddammit I can’t understand it,
I mean I’m thankful for everything that I been handed,
I know it couldn’t be any better if I had planned it,
but why it so hard to find peace on the planet.
Goddammit I can’t understand it,
I mean I’m thankful for everything that I been handed,
I know it couldn’t be any better if I had planned it,
but why it so hard to find peace on the planet.
Yeah why it so hard to find peace on the planet?
I mean I know it couldn’t be any better if I had planned it.
But why it so hard to find peace on, yeah,
Yeah why it so hard to find peace on the planet?
