Just Wake Up
JUST WAKE UP
just another bitter black woman they say, i say wake up
men always underestimate their better halves
hell we're the real thing not decaf i make you laugh
wake up and smell my essence and what i bring to the table
or are both of your eyes bonded together and cannot see
who it is i fell in love with and who i want you to be
i want a man that loves hard and creates his own mic
stands tall in his timbs and looks at me like, he knows what i am thinking
i know that i am not the typical black woman so dont be your typical black man
but i have a story to tell and something to offer a king fit for a queen
a warm bed,a warm soul,and a peace that will not fade
i was made this way,just hear me out this time for real
dont want to bother you or dissapoint you with false hopes
there will be struggles and confusion that is for sure
although,this is bound to happen sit still with me and just listen
alter your mind,mend your heart and let me love you
i promise that we will never go through what our parents went through
we both shall awake from this chokehold the world has on us
collapse into my arms and tell me what to do so we can make up
if all this is a dream,damn,let me sleep and i never want to wake up
just another bitter black woman they say, i say wake up
men always underestimate their better halves
hell we're the real thing not decaf i make you laugh
wake up and smell my essence and what i bring to the table
or are both of your eyes bonded together and cannot see
who it is i fell in love with and who i want you to be
i want a man that loves hard and creates his own mic
stands tall in his timbs and looks at me like, he knows what i am thinking
i know that i am not the typical black woman so dont be your typical black man
but i have a story to tell and something to offer a king fit for a queen
a warm bed,a warm soul,and a peace that will not fade
i was made this way,just hear me out this time for real
dont want to bother you or dissapoint you with false hopes
there will be struggles and confusion that is for sure
although,this is bound to happen sit still with me and just listen
alter your mind,mend your heart and let me love you
i promise that we will never go through what our parents went through
we both shall awake from this chokehold the world has on us
collapse into my arms and tell me what to do so we can make up
if all this is a dream,damn,let me sleep and i never want to wake up
