Picture me graduating, no validation needed I waited, now I finally live my truth Being true calibrated My calculations never amounted to my dreams, so what's the use? A quarter pound of baking soda, some flour, egg, and that power Heat the oven above two Thousand degrees, that fire's need to burn away all that extra Now I'm purging in my youth Certainly uncouth, since I ain't learned the rules, I never followed what the group did I ain't burned a bridge except the ones I wouldn't use, so If they still offended, hope they drop that weight and move I'm unruly, but I'm loyal God is faithful, that's on my soil That's on my mama, swear I always knew I'm royal But my crown don't fit my lock so I just made one out of foil, Supa Good

Here it come I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful, I live through the storm I know I could rise on broken legs and walk if I want I survive until I spot a light at the end of the tunnel I know I'm the one, I know that it's I Wipe my nose and my eyes, surprised the smile ain't recognized since a child
It's a struggle every day, but there is a way out We may have to rumble, but when you leave the tunnel All you gotta do is carry on Just need to carry on And only bring enough to carry on Just need to carry on
