Lyrics
Don’t complain when I don’t smile
‘Cause boy we ain’t friends
See God guides my path
Keeps me away from dead ends
I am understanding
But my threshold is low
My body is my temple
It’s my right to say no
Said it about a thousand times
Add it to your men code
And if I refuse politely
You stay in denial
You keep on prying
You keep on acting like you’re on a trial
And I’m just being vile, yeah
So pay attention, please
It’s a lot to digest
I’ve had enough of it
It’s time to protest
Been quiet for too long
Getting it off my chest
You say you’re tryna be kind
Telling me I’m ungrateful
‘Cause I’m just like your type
That’s why you’re tryna be playful
You say you’re tryna be kind
Telling me I’m so ungrateful
But I know and I take pride
My momma made me so graceful
Have you ever walked down the street
Confident in your own skin
But each step you take
Confidence starts to run thin
It’s the step of another
The thought of no make-up
No undercover
The insecurities you said were over
Vulnerabilities keep taking over
Even though we say “we got it”
It’s so hard to deny it
We keep on trying
To disempower attempts of minimising
So often victimising, yeah
So pay attention, please
It’s a lot to digest
I’ve had enough of it
It’s time to protest
Been quiet for too long
Getting it off my chest
You say you’re tryna be kind
Telling me I’m ungrateful
‘Cause I’m just like your type
That’s why you’re tryna be playful
You say you’re tryna be kind
Telling me I’m so ungrateful
But I know and I take pride
My momma made me so graceful
You say you’re tryna be kind
Telling me I’m ungrateful
‘Cause I’m just like your type
That’s why you’re tryna be playful
You say you’re tryna be kind
Telling me I’m so ungrateful
But I know and I take pride
My momma made me so graceful
