VERSE 1:
I’ve been thinking thinking thinking ‘bout my life
Thinking ‘bout this, thinking ‘bout that
Thinking ‘bout how i’m gon’ end being your wife
One day or so i pray
Also i look back at the old and see
How you rocked up and rolled with me
Now you know me, now you know me
You can trust me when i say i no leave
Oh i’ll wait till we stroll down 88
You’ll ask me who’s dated me and
I’ll say it’s complicated
Meaning there’s a big difference between loving and a date
Not a lotta lovers bringing dinner to the plate
I’m saying
HOOK:
Tomalira ebisera
Tomalira ebisera
Tomalira ebisera
Tomalira ebisera
VERSE 2:
Wait wait, don’t you hesitate
I’m just being cautious about who eats the cake
Wait wait, don’t be showing up too late
I tend to get anxious, I do not like to wait
But maybe maybe maybe
You wanna show me something that my eyes ain’t seen
I must admit i might be just a little keen
To see if you be meaning what you say you mean baby
Wanna tell you something
I don’t play games no more
Not an arcade stick
I don’t play games no more
Not an arcade stick baby
HOOK:

VERSE 1:
Heading out
Don’t usually feel like a crowd but i want to now
Want to be in the here and the now
And my body’s bound to the earth and the earth core
Love it hard till it gets sore
Love it when they scream for an encore
Make me feel like there’s more we could live for
You should tread lightly it’s dangerous
Sometimes you tend to get careless
Get close to the light and then fall into an endless pit
Claw yourself out ‘fore you get sick
Get rid of the nonsense
Don’t get so lost in the darkness
Be careful cause you might become it
HOOK:
I get that feeling in my stomach
I get that feeling in my stomach
I get that feeling in my stomach
I get that feeling in my stomach
VERSE 2:
Indulge in some rest like it’s heaven-sent
Converse with the gods tell me everything
We fight over whose god who’s worshipping
Ignorance is to our detriment
Wonder if we’ll see the end of it
Government should feel embarrassment
Bout all the lies and the death and the violence
Screaming as loud as the guns and the sirens
We won’t back down, we won’t be silent
Must join us now or forever be quiet
Don’t want to hear ‘bout the black folk you hired
That’s a façade and it’s weak and it’s tired
Freedom won’t come from the people up higher
Here on the ground’s where we lighting the fires
Burn it all down, dance on its ashes
Telling you that’s not a threat , it’s a promise
HOOK:
I get that feeling in my stomach
I get that feeling in my stomach
I get that feeling in my stomach
I get that feeling in my stomach

VERSE 1:
They want me thick, want me thin
Want me showing all this skin
Baby sit, baby grin
Baby where do i begin?
Stop listening to all of the haters and
All of the venom they spreading and
System might be rearranged but then
Reality is that we slaves to them
Riding around in a pink sedan
Damn my hands look like my maama’s hands
Nails long enough to slit you with
Don’t you worry ‘bout whose bae i’m with
You do you
I do me
I don’t worry ‘bout who sounds like me
You can flip my swag from your hair to your bag to the t
You ain’t got no rhymes like me gurl gurl gurl gurrrl
BRIDGE :
Pretty baby won’t you go
Take a stroll down the beaten road
Ain’t here living for you no
Glimpse of a future that’s mine fo sho
HOOK :
Future that’s mindful
Looking at a future that’s mindful
Said my future is mindful
Future that’s mine fo’ sho
Said my future is mindful
Future that’s mine fo sho
Future that’s mindful
Mindful
VERSE 2:
Why they always be acting so clingy
Wanna keep pulling me back like i’m chingy
Wanna be out & about like we gucci
But they the same ones that’s trying to read me
Get you a library card and a cd
I’m no geneva, no i’m not a treaty
Whatever that means in this world kinda beats me
They be as real as the lips are on kylie damn
Melanin, wishing you had it then wish you didn’t
Damn how so easy, convenient
If it were that simple i’d save many men
From the contraptions of pigs and them
Give ‘em a life they can live again
Find us some peace in the present tense
Find us some peace in the present tense
BRIDGE :
Pretty baby won’t you go
Take a stroll down the beaten road
Ain’t here living for you no
Glimpse of a future that’s mine fo sho
Pretty baby won’t you go
Take a stroll down the beaten road
Ain’t here living for you no
Glimpse of a future that’s mine fo sho
HOOK :
Future that’s mindful
Looking at a future that’s mindful
Said my future is mindful
Future that’s mine fo’ sho
Said my future is mindful
Future’s so mine fo sho
Future that’s mindful
Mindful

VERSE 1:
Move slow, slow mo’
Hear that beat go
Boom bap, negro
So sick, Ne-Yo
Feelin’ it, antenna bitch
Way ahead, futuristic
Whose future’s this?
Pick a script, flesh it out, make a print
They like to copy the original
This shit right here yeah it’s seminal
Maybe sometimes i get sentimental
But if you fuck up i go animal
In person or even in digital
I be on your mind like your favourite boo
Buy me a house, make it presidential
Sign off that shit, bitch i’m quintessential
BRIDGE:
They said
Shawty goes back to basics
Birthing these babes like matrix
She hard as steel bitch stainless, yes yes
They said
Shawty goes back to basics
Birthing these babes like matrix
She hard as steel bitch stainless, yes yes
VERSE 2:
Bitch i had enough
Sip a little something from the devil’s cup
Get a whiff of my flavour
Jesus Christ, i might be your saviour
Didn’t have to fall ‘fore i was risen up
Not about being dealt a hand of luck
Work, work work like Ri-ri
Fenty beauty, tutti frutti
No need to bring me down
Cause i’m too high up and i’m too profound
Circus must be in town
Cause it coughed you up, my favourite clown
No need to bring me down
Cause i’m too high up and i’m too profound
Circus must be in town
Cause it coughed you up, my favourite clown
BRIDGE:
They said
Shawty goes back to basics
Birthing these babes like matrix
She hard as steel bitch stainless, yes yes
They said
Shawty goes back to basics
Birthing these babes like matrix
She hard as steel bitch stainless, yes yes

VERSE 1:
Trust less than i did before
Used to know me like i knew my core
When i’m lonely is it you i call
Serve me cup so my heart i pour
Let it flow free will you ask for more?
Like a windrush through an open door
Like a cool breeze through a corridor
Walking bare feet on a concrete floor
BRIDGE:
I’m hesitant
I know the reason’s irrelevant
I know you thinking i’m delicate
Wait a minute, just wait a minute, comprehend
I’m not just trying to compensate
For all of the silences i create
Sometimes it just feels like i can’t relate
HOOK:
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
VERSE 2:
Tryna be vulnerable
But to tell you the truth man that shit is uncomfortable
Trying to bare my soul
Hold up a mirror to the wounds that my body holds
Waters get murky
Feeling less worthy
How come all the quirkies
Be feeling so sad deep
BRIDGE:
I’m hesitant
I know the reason’s irrelevant
I know you thinking i’m delicate
Wait a minute, just wait a minute, comprehend
I’m not just trying to compensate
For all of the silences i create
Sometimes it just feels like i can’t relate
HOOK:
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
