Not chasing perfection
Louder for them in da back
I said,
Im not chasing perfection

I earned all my flaws

Fake *******
Thats an insult to God

I'll shave my hair
cause I like to be soft
but if he's had me
he's been to the bush

I feel better off the grid
Social media killing these kids
Unrealistic expectations for how you're spose to look,
having your virginity prematurely took
Soo...
Likes determine how much you like yourself
But if you turned the phone off
Your mind could help

See I been taking time
to refine myself
redesign myself
redefine my rights
and realize what's wrong
what's wrong to me
processing traumas I ain't use to see
Answering questions more friendly,
like "What's wrong with me?"

"Youse a doll baby, but you been acting like your mom lately. Go say a prayer, turn it around. Sing a song baby!"

See, can't nobody be fine
if they haven't mastered their mind.
Thought I was depressed
but that was just a test
Read them texts,
As a woman thinketh
Came correct
Now I'm performing at my best
YES YES!
MASTER YOUR MIND
