lyrics

My daddy taught me right said I should get up and fight
and at the end of the hall I see the light
My mama paved the way, I watch her fight every day

Hey what do you take me for?
Think I ain’t got a mind of my own, your wrong
Hey what do you take me for?
Well I think you should mind your own business boy

You think I need your guidance?
Well can you feel reluctance?
I never asked for this
Ideas you see I’ve got abundance

I need your supervision
Unfit to make decisions
Well that’s your own assumption
Never asked for my opinion

My mama taught me right said I should get up and fight
and at the end of the hall I see the light
My daddy paved the way, I watch him fight every day

I was told not to waste my time, go find
follow your heart and you’ll live right
Anyway I’m gonna land on my feet and be free

So you thought you could see through
me with out taking the time to read through
my introduction you would discover
never judge the book by the cover
thought I’m a bird in fact I’m the lion
my lionesses marching to Zion
hide your kids we’re playing with fire
only way to go up aiming higher
Oh, did you want me to smile for you?
Want me to act like a child for you?
Should I solely rely on you
hold the phone I know where I’m going to
and I'mma push and pull till I get there
ain’t nobody slowing me down nor the weather
but bombing for peace like fucking for virginity
so I’mma float above till you reach me

Oh oh oh oh oh
why you look at me like this?
you ain’t got a say in this
Oh oh oh oh oh
why you look at me like this?
you ain’t got a say in this
Oh oh oh oh oh
why you look at me like this?
you ain’t got a say in this
Oh oh oh oh oh

My daddy taught me right said I should get up and fight
and at the end of the hall I see the light
My mama paved the way, I watch her fight every day
My daddy taught me right said I should get up and fight
and at the end of the hall I see the light
My mama paved the way, I watch her fight every day
