Uh
1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2, ayy
1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2, ayy
This how it goes, man
Otayo Dubb, Fat Gums, Bambu
[Verse 1: Otayo Dubb]
Now she right, now she right there whenever duty calls
But she don't, but she don't wanna be no booty call
Used to be hella easy to get up in them drawers
Now she tryna land a man before she menopause
Don't cook, but she a pro about that Karma Sutra
Always chillin' with some dudes who don't do contributions
With that, with all that drinking and partying
Only concerned about the clothes and the car he in
She's so, she's so dramatic with her arguments
Even fought a dude at the club and tore up his card again
But it's always somebody's fault though
Accountability is really something she never own
Took a look at herself into a different light
All these people, man, using her through her blind side
Eyes wide open now, tryna switch it up
Love yourself, baby girl, you only livin' once
[Hook]
It's gonna be allright
With a little more understanding
That's all we're gonna need
Is a little more understanding
It's gonna be alright
[Verse 2: Bambu]
She left, she left Manila at 10
She was off to reconnect with where her momma had been
Petition after petition after long nights wishin'
And finally that wishin gon' play out into fruition
Living in a concrete box with cousin and Pop
One window one door with barely room to walk
Not to mention all the pressure to be good wives
Marry good guys who look like they could be white
“Good bye” to a country she loved
But it was either factory work or dancing in clubs
Now she off to be with mom, another flag that calls
All the poverty, corruption where her plane take off
But she, but she promised her old man that
She'd be coming back just as soon as she can
She's now living in one room project, ironic
But check out all the channels she's watching

[Bridge: Bambu]
Ayo ayo, Otayo what is this?
I don't understand how they're conducting their business
But, I think just a little more patience
And a little bit of listening and not so much explaining
Hey
It's gonna be ok
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be ok
It's gonna be alright
[Verse 3: Otayo Dubb]
Now this one, now this for everyone who ever doubted
Themselves, or anyone else that you hang around with
You can't, you can't just let them go and box you in
Have you stuck in a place where you receiving no oxygen
It starts, it starts with you, you gotta gain control
Don't get caught out of character, gotta play your role
See how, see how they quick to fill they wheaties
Concentrate on the surface while nothing is underneath it
Like back at school I never really pledge allegiance
Didn't feel the lessons the teacher was tryna feed us
Mr. Out-smoking, always the rebel-rouser
Knowledge is self, believe me they're gon' never doubt you
Hands up in the air if you gon' see the light
We stand together it can never be an even fight
Stand for something or fight for what they feed ya
Turn all the doubters to believers
[Hook]
