all I really need is hope. solo. started in 2006, made in 2008
i try to be, the girls on TV: tall & nice figure
i eat less but i end up getting bigger
so i dance the shit i'm burnin
the caloriiies i'm churnin
my head keeps spinning & spinning
i'm driven
but it's not the fantasies i'm given
just a pile on the floor so i try to make it hidden
but i fall once more & look up at these women
they shakin their heads like i'm acting like a kid and
go with them in a position where i try to be a person i'm not
so yea, i have my own story, go-tta make my own plot
and God forsake my old jots
sometimes i'm over the top
at least i'm getting somewhere when i gotta show what i got
using my doe to get hott
but running out of it.
i'm crowded in bohemian life
i'm screamin feedin off the hype makin it easy & right
you try to beat me in life
when i'm livin with no strife
you break ur neck when you fight
i'm over flying a kite
you don't think i could tell that you have been crying at night
you get the illest shit so new when i could buy it half price
can't live ur life without guys
i roll with guys like their dice
you can't go out without ice
i'm wearin sweats riding bikes
I'm a grownass lady
I thank Shady for being crazy
cuz maybe i would be late, inspiration to come in state
be waiting to come and play; keep playin the common day
i bet i wouldn't be confident livin' in stronger ways
but now i'm stronger than ever
6 packs grown in my brain
physically and mentally ready to attack my prey
i lack no composition
my competition's the day
people rap to battle
i'm rappin to find my place
i stumble cite flows
but humble to write flows
i fight all the night ghosts
until i see bright glows
back down to my foes
lack ground when i pose
when all i really need is hope
and the people that be wantin more
i struggle to talk to them
just becuz the lyrics i write
i'm readin off of them
don't wanna hear shit-talkin
your fake
i know it's harder to take
it's on and off again
but there's no way to be stoppin them
i ain't seer-i-ous
i blow those peers to dust
peer pressure was such a lecture, kinda 5th grade much?
ppl just gotta understand
that i'm doing what i can
for myself only, ain't like i'm doin it for fans
i'm doin it for me
i just screw with it you see?
for example, "HyPhoebe" & "Bi-o-logy [Song]"
if you listened to my [quote]"rap career"[unquote] chronology
you'd know most it for fun, but all [of] it's sheei-ty
& just plain giddy oresle it just ain't pretty
act like i'm smart in Arch Mitty but my grades dropped biggie
not tryin to get publicity, they've chosen me
they take second to listen to what i've grown to be
they don't roast for me in the sun while i flowst for thee
i pour out the poet nobody knows in me
yo, look deeper than all of the clothes you see
know, that being who i be's what it's supposed to be
so what, if i spit prewritt-en poetry?
you ain't gotta be a snitch ta think your pwnin me
just cuz i'm low in G's, & i'm borrowing keys
& how i'm not a pro but ppl know me overseas
i just feel like i'm making changes when i'm writing these songs
ultimately to determine between the right & the wrongs
& when i'm fightin it's strong, when i'm delightin it's kind
i'm tryna make a difference & musically challenge the mind
still it's a challenge to find the right lyrics to write
like when you see a cute animal but you fear it at night
i keep the lyrics as tight
and one hundred percent real
what's it for, if not to express what you feel, ya feel?
