[Verse 1]
If I was taller, you would run from me huh 
If I wasn’t balling I couldn’t be your cup of tea huh 
I mean, what if I wasn’t somebody huh 
Since rapping makes you so uncomfortable huh 
You’d never actually fuck me huh 
They used to say I’m too loud, but that’s cool now 
Love my skin, always been proud, guess that’s in now 
They used to say I’m too black, with that crude rap 
And I courier the boom bap over new trap 

[Verse 2]
Hmm, we’re in your maze 
Before they called us monkey n***as 
Where are those days? 
That cotton picking fucking wit em’
Where are those slaves?
I want em’ on the rise like varicose veins 
Hmm, yeah I’m darker than my friends 
And finally they see it and they start to get the trend 
I gotta do 2 times more to get 4 times less
But it’s cool ‘cause I’m sharper in the end 
Still, let’s talk about it 

[Verse 3]
About the fact I got commercial appeal 
So ultimately, it’s the dollars that be turning the wheel 
Most my homies, they want gold and not that surgical steel 
They wanna make more than we currently will
I mean I get it, I’m trying to stack stack stack 
All of the coin coin coin 
I love that I’m black black black
So fuck all that noise noise noise 
Boing boing boing 
Lady parts but I’m fierce 
This a daily dart from my fears 
Issa lazy start from my peers
Imma pave a pond with my tears 
I gotta interrupt the service 
I gotta switch it up, I gotta think above the surface 
They dropping they change, I’m picking up the purses 
History deserted, huh 

[Refrain]
You think I’m proud to be associated with you
I don't need shit
And most importantly I don’t need you
Need you ...

[Verse 4]
All my life I hung with the man dem
Yeah - sometimes they gotta let you know that you different, I used to
Point guard, set the play on some ball shit 
Poised tall, 7th grade, still a small shrimp 
We was running, we was shooting and um 
This one boy was moving ruder than he usually does 
At one point, he threw my ball over my reach 
I’m talking way down the street, like 45 feet 
I fucking stepped, like is you serious n***a
This ain’t the end, there ain’t no period n***a 
This is a mess, I ain’t inferior n***a 
Bruh I stepped to him cleanly 
So he cuffed by the neck and he beat me
I shrug about it now 
Its just my struggle with the power divide 
Cause even as little kids, he told me with his hand around me 
That all the other boys don’t never wanna hang around me 
And they don’t fuck with tom boys, it’s a squad of small boys
He was swinging hard like I ain’t have my dad around me 
Like I ain’t always have my sisters and my fam around me 
Side eye how them n***as used to act around me
Looking back, I ain’t have a fat ass around me 
Still I levelled up, I always had that ladder round me 
Now I’m rocking big stages and they gather round me 
I got nothing but them groupies and them fans around me 
Oh say can you see by the dawns early light that I’m proud like the star spangled banner round me 
Shorty gloss like that laquer ‘round me
More a boss than the mans around me
Lil n***a couldn’t shake me 
Lil n***a couldn’t break me 
Nah 
Lil n***a couldn’t shake me
Lil n***a couldn’t break me
