A Woman

VERSE 1

Some n***as say I’m beautiful

They tell me that they love me

Some n***as say I’m pitiful

I’m motherfucking ugly

They say, “That bitch is dark as sin

And sin is pretty dark…

Thank GOD they don’t have chicks like that

On 106 and Park.”

Well maybe if I did my nose

Then I’d get big like Kelly Rowland

Maybe they’d forget my shade

Is something like a Coco-Cola

Ya’ll heard Wayne

He want to hate a chick who darker than Folgers

We got artists who be talking like Confederate soldiers

Bitches going wild

It’s cool, but if she a black chick

Ha-ha she done lost her mind

She automatically ratchet

I’ve had it –

With the media

And the networks

And the sponsors

I’m mad at

All the CEOs

Telling n***as

That they don’t want us

We're alone it’s so hard just to be black

With a double X chromosome

Don’t know when we gone get respect

I want to yell like the n***a in Home Alone

I got a fat ass

I don’t need to show it

Cuz I rap fast

Some n***as never noticed

That I passed math

They be hella focused on my back

That’s a sad fact



CHORUS

As a matter fact

All black girls should clap clap

I’m putting these cats on blast

That’s to put it on they mind

Like a snap back x 2



I’m a woman

I --

I’m a woman

I’m a woman

I --

I’m a woman

Come and take my hand

You gone love me as I am

Cuz I’m a woman

I --

I’m a woman



VERSE 2

When they whisper, “Ay you cute

Although you dark skin momma”

I want to kill a n***a

How Obama did Osama

Go ahead tell me I look better red

I’ll look you in the eye

N***a you look better dead

I ain’t a redbone

Or a dark butt

Or a stupid ho

I be hurt when I hear that mess

From my own kind, like

You should know!

But I don’t want to put it all on the n***as

Cuz girls talk shit about their hair and figures too

And I’m wondering

If I have a daughter

Like what I’m gone do?

Hoes be out here livin’

In it to win it

End to beginning

National Anthem

To the ninth inning

Capital letter

To the end of the sentence

Wanna buy their T & A

So they can deny their DNA

And these are the ones

That’ll take the reigns

For the next generation

And lead the way!

I’m scared for the daughters and the sons

And the daughters and the sons of them

Black kids who don’t wanna be their color

They’re not gonna love their own black skin

We got blonde weaves

Blue eyes

Chickens feeling like Aryans

And I won't be

Surprised

When dark skin finna look alien



CHORUS

As a matter fact

All black girls should clap clap

I’m putting these cats on blast

That’s to put it on they mind

Like a snap back x 2



I’m a woman

I --

I’m a woman

I’m a woman

I --

I’m a woman

Come and take my hand

You gone love me as I am

Cuz I’m a woman

I --

I’m a woman
