It's been a long time Yeah, since I looked in a mirror And liked what I see It was a hard climb Yeah, things are much clearer In my reality and how people see me Always feeling ashamed Because of what I was told Now I'm taking the ugly, and made it beautiful I found me a place, where I ain't doin' nothin' But lovin' myself, and everything about me Said I found me a place, and it don't even matter What nobody else thinks, cause I'm lovin' me It's been a long time Since I sang on a song They said my voice was right, but my curves were all wrong It's such a hard time When the media chooses Who wins or who loses, but I gotta fix what your illusions Oh, no, no longer feelin' the pain I'm more than good enough Gave my power away, but now I back and stronger If I'm not a size 2, it don't fit you, it's okay I refuse to be dismissed because my skin is darker than yours All that power when say "You're pretty in the face", if only I could lose some weight Anything you can do, I can do better Made up my mind, won't stop never

Sometimes I don't know what to Write about but sometimes I do Thinking about the music industry And how its kind of new And sometimes I just make beats For the fun of it I'd rather be making a melody than Doing anything else Because this is what I love to do And sometimes I don't have a Rhyme even though I have all the Time to put a line in Yeah ta' put a line in I feel like God put me on an Significant assignment And I know that everything will Be revealed on His perfect timing But the greatest gift of all that he Has blessed me with is this Rhyming One day it might be me with a Contract that I'm signin' It's not up to me It's not in my control with my Future to define it Trusting where I can't see I don't mind it Whoever hears me I hope For your sake that salvation yeah You find it Wisdom and truth I hope you bind it And sometimes I think about time Wondering where did it go Their right when they say time Will tell In my life it had really show Moments turned to memories And memories turned into the Past I never realized that I Grew up so fast Man speaking of moments Make sure you live in em' I've had a couple pass by in my life And I'm missing em' That hit too close to home And all of that made me far from it Trying to figure out what life really is and what it wasn't Realizing there is never a perfect moment for life to be seized We all miss you Rip Denise Four days after my seventeenth Trying to figure out why it was Meant to be Trying to figure out why I was Here and you weren't Man I remember my junior year in the Library yeah during lunch So in shock it was like life Went straight for a punch All I'm tryna say is live everyday Like it's the last It's time to focus on the present Rather than worrying about The past And I don't know about you but Life is goin pretty fast It feels like yesterday I was just a little kid on the Playground trading lunches But now I'm working hard In the studio I'm reaping now and eventually I will sow I'm living everyday like it's my last Yeah This is all I want to do man Forget about my past Yeah This is my future And I'm not done growing I'm learning in life There's no chance of knowing I'm doing everything in my Capability to make this all happen Young and at work yeah Keep on laughing Know that I got true grit I'm never lacking Song upon song yeah I keep on stacking It's just I've been around older folk Who have been mad at the world Wishing they would have done Something with their lives rather Than watching it move Yeah watching it move But I'm not gonna be that girl Yeah It's not gon' be me Speaking of past times Remembering all of those Sad rhymes I miss you dec yeah We all do We all do When we come together it feels Like it's just not the same Looking for you across the table But then giving me a reality check Sometimes it seems fake rather Than serial Life and death is no joke I'm like Jesus take the wheel Take the wheel yeah Yeah yeah take the All I'm tryna' say is live everyday Like it's the last It's time to focus on the present Rather than Worrying about the past And I don't know about you but Life is goin pretty fast And sometimes it's greater feeling Like an outcast Sometimes being an outcast means That your meant for more That you get different Opportunities and Significant doors Yeah Been lookin at my face In the mirror lately like wow I've grown so much Man 2020 revealed and had shown So much I've learned in this world There's a difference between Giving and receiving And not to be selfish arrogant Person that is so needy I've learned so far that all you need is God he'll handle the rest And sometimes less is best And I've noticed how simple life Can be if you just trust in Him Your looking for a dub but the Wins in Him I've turned away from the flesh Because I crave heaven I meet Him face to face when I was As young as seven God sought me Picked me out of the crowd and Said follow me He saved me like Jonah Suffering in the sea I've learned it's not about the I But about the we Yes This whole rap thing is it for me

Used to spend my nights out in a barroom Liquor was the only love I've known But you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom And brought me back from being too far gone You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey You're as sweet as strawberry wine You're as warm as a glass of brandy And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time I've looked for love in all the same old places Found the bottom of a bottle always dry But when you poured out your heart I didn't waste it 'Cause there's nothing like your love to get me high You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey Tennessee whiskey Tennessee whiskey You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey Tennessee whiskey Tennessee whiskey
