| [00:01.36] | I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down |
| [00:04.17] | I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down |
| [00:07.17] | You're the one that was tryna keep me way down |
| [00:09.97] | Like a sudden all you know if I'm on my way down |
| [00:12.84] | Look – they tell me I should fix my grill cause |
| [00:14.84] | I got money now |
| [00:16.12] | I ain't gon' sit around and front like |
| [00:17.75] | I ain't thought about it |
| [00:19.12] | A perfect smile is more appealing but it's funny how |
| [00:21.87] | My shit is crooked look at how far |
| [00:23.68] | I done got without it |
| [00:24.98] | I keep my twisted grill |
| [00:25.92] | Just to show them kids it's real |
| [00:27.92] | We ain't picture perfect but we worth the picture still |
| [00:31.14] | I got smart, I got rich, and I got bitches still |
| [00:33.82] | And they all look my eyebrows: thick as hell |
| [00:37.00] | Love yourself, girl, or nobody will |
| [00:38.81] | Oh, you a woman? I don't know how you deal |
| [00:41.37] | With all the pressure to look impressive |
| [00:43.06] | And go out in heels |
| [00:44.24] | I feel for you… |
| [00:45.24] | Killing yourself to find a man that'll kill for you |
| [00:48.18] | You wake up, put makeup on |
| [00:49.67] | Stare in the mirror but its clear that |
| [00:51.79] | You can't face what's wrong |
| [00:53.17] | No need to fix what God already put his paint brush on |
| [00:56.22] | Your roommate yelling |
| [00:57.16] | “Why you gotta take so long?” |
| [00:59.29] | What it's like to have a crooked smile |
| [01:00.53] | I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down |
| [01:03.34] | I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down |
| [01:06.04] | This crooked smile |
| [01:06.66] | You're the one that was tryna keep me way down |
| [01:09.38] | Like a sudden all you know if I'm on my way down |
| [01:12.06] | To all the women with the flaws |
| [01:13.43] | Know it's hard my darling |
| [01:15.06] | You wonder why you're lonely and |
| [01:16.30] | Your man's not calling |
| [01:17.99] | You keep falling victim cause you're insecure |
| [01:20.86] | And when I tell you that |
| [01:22.36] | You're beautiful you can't be sure |
| [01:24.10] | Cause you see that no one wants you back |
| [01:25.98] | And it got you asking |
| [01:26.97] | So all you see is what you lacking |
| [01:28.91] | Not what you packing |
| [01:30.22] | Take it from a man that loves what you got |
| [01:32.53] | And baby you're a star |
| [01:33.90] | Don't let 'em tell you you're not |
| [01:35.33] | Now is it real? Eyebrows, fingernails, hair |
| [01:38.45] | Is it real? if it's not, girl you don't care |
| [01:41.51] | Cause what's real is something |
| [01:43.07] | That the eyes can't see |
| [01:44.44] | That the hands can't touch |
| [01:45.75] | That them broads can't be, and that's you |
| [01:48.37] | Never let 'em see your friend |
| [01:50.19] | And if you need a friend to pick you up |
| [01:51.94] | I'll be around |
| [01:52.88] | And we can ride with the windows down |
| [01:55.50] | The music loud |
| [01:56.12] | I can tell you ain't laughed in a while |
| [01:58.50] | But I wanna see that crooked smile |
| [01:59.68] | I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down |
| [02:02.53] | I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down |
| [02:05.65] | You're the one that was tryna keep me way down |
| [02:08.60] | Like a sudden all you know if I'm on my way down |
