Song Lyrics

I wanna say I run the sound like I'm over it
Keep my four to the floor we are threatening
But it's mental how your words can unravel it
They pick apart the pieces like a piquant pepper pickles it

I'm running with the signs, I'm a rebel and
Keep in line or they cry you're not feminine
I'm the light that towards you should be running
so I'ma try to remind galdem just human

Woah, I didn't say nothing about a woman who wanted a fair shot
Who wanted to tear up
I don't know maybe I mean it but sometimes I feel I gotta give up

Think about that woman who wanted to stand here
Up against her peers
As if it weren't weird
If you're feeling bad, well i wanna warn you that calm down
Will be the next sound inna your delicate ears

La la la la

I heard they been talking
Now which kind of righteous path is it that you think that you've been walking?
Looks like snorting and extorting
I ain't supporting or applauding
None of that energy, that's appalling
Think I'm crawling cos I ain't balling?
It's the dice game of life and I'm all in
I dodge the goblins on my left
I swerve the leeches on my right hand side
Believe things can really start itching
If you don't start checking for parasites
Am I paranoid? Nah I'm para-nice
Trust nobody, yeah that's some rad advice
Seeing red better stop like a traffic light
Shook up ready to pop like a can of Sprite

I'm so sick of belittling and aggression so passive
If I go one day without being reminded of my skin and sex it's just massive
Taking all my energy, level of my lethargy, stepping on my every moment although I cannot be anything because why don't you smile honey?
Maybe cos I matter 30% less than a bredda from the mid west

I won't serve as a window from which your whole world perception does shine
I won't protect you from your ignorance when your lack of knowledge and culture presides
Women of colour couldn't stand here
Up against their peers
Cause it was so weird
And if you're feeling bad well I wanna warn you that calm down will be the next sound inna your delicate ears

I guess I'm learning what I didn't wanna learn
I guess I'm burning what I didn't wanna burn
Watch as the night becomes the light then fades to black
