| When I was born my mother was torn crazy, They nearly gave me away to the wrong
|
| lady
|
| Doctor said 'sorry we didn’t see that comin but there’s no way in the world
|
| that he came from a black woman'
|
| I guess I been fightin since birth
|
| I barely had life on this earth
|
| Already subjected to people and how they judge, Little fair skinned baby,
|
| resentment was in my blood
|
| I would love to say things got easier I as I grew, But conflict in my family
|
| was nothing new
|
| My parents in the kitchen, they’re bitchin at one another, My brother’s my role
|
| model so playing women was cool
|
| Cool until you start mature, start to endure what is real life and finally
|
| admit when insecure
|
| Pure honesty, promise me if you can, that you’ll be there to catch me when I
|
| land, for who I am
|
| It’s who I am
|
| Will you be there to catch me when I land, for who I am
|
| Need you to understand, everything I’m not made me everything I am,
|
| and if we really fam, you’ll be there to catch me when I land, for who I am
|
| Who I am is deeper than what they giving you, But second guessing myself was my
|
| biggest issue
|
| For example at the B.E.T. |
| office had an awkward conversation with one of my
|
| fellow artist
|
| He said 'I used to rap just like you, but that was going nowhere so to help my
|
| own career had to switch it up'
|
| Stressing he’s one of my known peers, Then I realized he was projecting his own
|
| fears
|
| Fear I had the courage of what he urges to be, So instead of showing love he’d
|
| rather discourage me
|
| And that’s how people feel when they deal with uncertainty, And certainly would
|
| place the burden on any person but he
|
| And see it plain but can’t explain the direction
|
| You can break the mirror but can’t change the reflection
|
| Without an aim it all remains a question
|
| Will you be there to catch me when I land, for who I am?
|
| It’s who I am
|
| Will you be there to catch me when I land, for who I am
|
| Need you to understand, everything I’m not made me everything I am,
|
| and if we really fam, you’ll be there to catch me when I land, for who I am
|
| Who I, Who I, Who I, Who I (Repeat 4x) |
