[Intro]
Ya', you see sometimes people are looking good but
Its like they don't understand it themselves
That beauty is actually within
You know
Trying to give you all a warning out there
[Singing]
We all got on the sail
But some of us got lost
Along the way
[Verse]
I want you to
Watch out for danger
I'm mystical like a phoenix,
Now I'm in your mind body and soul
Like a double helix,
Watch the body grow
It's like the cancer's in your cranium
I'm like the mirror you can't face
Putting words in my mouth
Like I'm spitting out a dictionary page
I'm failing' them
Drawing bad attention
Picture it
I ain't painting them
They all just wanna see how your frame work
All the attention
Got your ego trippin reppin
Who can blame you when u got them beautiful I's (eyes)
And never been to Holland still u wanna hit the Dutch
Got the low self a steam
Got your attitude to rise
Surrounded by your baby picture whispering yo how they miss u much
- fail
Treating u like growing nails
They wanna - sell/cell - you - out
Spending thinking time in darkrooms
With dark thoughts
She be African
What colour u think her magic is
That's how mad this sh** is
[Chorus
I'm trying to show
There's no point in hiding
Give a damn about opinions I'm not amazed
Only true colours
Will make the blues
Fade away to grey don't be afraid to stay
True to your heart
Say you're way too strong
You can take them all
Don't let them push you down while you're still climbing
[Verse 2]
Its like curiosity k**ed the cat ya' on his 9th life
,while dark thoughts of d**h
By cancer got u eating light
Salads with a side
Of a potato head, a gravy man
A happy meal
Suffering from the lack -of- morality
Or self respect
The wrong type of king got you in check
Wanna mate?
Animalistic, preconceived notions
Too tired -to -debate -about things
Like throwing away the bad seeds
Just to see a beautiful garden grow
You're like jack's rose
Don't wanna see u drown drown
Your heart pumps to beat western minds
Baby Mau Mau
U did a summersault over the fence
Where you heard
That the gra** was greener
Heifer calf
Treated like Heffner's spouse
Your body is your temple
But you meditating like you foreign in your own house
[Bridge]
I'm sorry to disappoint you and your ways
But no matter how i act i still
Loose in this game
So tell me, how can i trust?
[Hook]
I'm trying to show
There's no point in hiding
Give a damn about opinions I'm not amazed
Only true colours
Will make the blues
Fade away to grey don't be afraid to stay
True to your heart
Say you're way too strong
You can take them all
Don't let them push you down while you're still climbing
