Jealousy is a beast.
When many show hatred upon you.
Especially if you're black.
Cause you're constantly under attack.

Especially when that GROUP tries to tell you how to act.
Yes, jealousy is a beast.
Which is why you EXCEL with confidence.
And upfront have no regrets.

Why?
Cause jealousy is a beast.

We see it within country by certain acts.
Attacking a woman of color for her invading that field.
But we hardly cry about them stealing from us.

Even getting wealthy off our creations.

But accept jealousy is a beast.
Especially if you are BLACK.
That you face many attacks.
