Poem
Look look it’s crazy I’m the one they want to represent Young black girl,I can probably be the president I’m the voice of the youth,you heard my tone I think it’s evident I know who I am, they mistake my confidence for arrogance I think is different cause I don’t take my clothes off I just played my role y’all I can’t sell my soul y’all I just shoot to triple my arm up I guess I show off They sleep and I let them doze off Wake em up oh yea it’s roll call My chocolate is beautiful I’m rocking it per usual I’m loving every piece men From my top to my cuticles Tryna play with my head real love won’t be confusing you I learned make sure the one you putting first is also choosing you men Life is so crazy, many lessons and blessings I'm steady stressing perfection I keep neglecting my ethics So much texts and the message I’m tryna lessen my stressing Finally understand my power My presence is essence They killed my daddy while my mama was pregnant How I’m I supposed to feel ?! And they took my grandma child from her How is she supposed to heal ?! And we here starving ain’t got nothing How are we supposed to give ?! Seem like the system they set us up and we’re supposed to fail I’m so real the mayor gave me a day in my city But it’s so sad that I can’t even go and stay in my city And the shooting and killings, little kids can’t even play in my city It’s so wicked, they killed my daddy and brought a day in my city But I still love him I’ll give him every dime that I got Is running out but I’ll give you all the time that I’ve got You was the fakest on my team and I’m just finding it out That make me sick into my stomach want to vomit it out And I’m like ready or not men it’s my time out I done gave it everything I got it’s time to shine out They done blew the whistle men my foot across the line now Clock is ticking down ain’t got no thirty seconds time out for real though I know I done made it cause I don’t I would never waste my voice if I don’t speak for a cause I reminisce man I just thinking My mama told me you keep shooting for the moon you gon have a seat with them stars on god And I’m like ready or not Here I come,you can’t hide I’m rooting for you It take it slowly Ready or not Here I come,you can’t hide I’m rooting for you It take it slowly
