Wake early gotta meditate
Skip breakfast sometime
Because that can wait
Fuel my mind with the will
To want to shine and be great
Stop for coffee though
So what if I'm late
Gotta prioritize
How am I useful
At job this with them sleepy eyes
At least caffeine will
Have me acting a lil' more surprised
Sit at my desk
With my dreams disguised
They ask me what I like to do
And I'm telling lies
So scared to let anybody know
That I'm on the rise
Thankful for this job
Unlike GQ I don't have the ties
Thinking bigger here could be the
Start of my demise
So I keep it cool and play it quiet
To that boss that one time
Tried to get me fired
For being a black girl in a world
Who was uninspired
By the lack of acknowledgment
I just let it slide
Ironic it was my knowledge
That I just couldn't hide
I promise I'm going higher
Today until I expire
Pray for peace on my journey
My skin is so Godiva
My skin is so go diva
I'm here
I'm an achiever
Whenever you get discouraged
Know no one can ever be you
Listen
Be still, be still
Everything you're feeling isn't real
Be still, be still
Everything I'm feeling isn't real
Be still, be still
Everything you're feeling isn't real
Be still, be still
Everything I'm feeling isn't real
Be Still
Be Still
Beautiful is skin deep
Stepping into my lane
With no envy
Only I can do it the way I do it
It sends me
When you look at me
Know you barely see what's trendy
Smiling when you win
Showing' all my teeth
They smiling when you win
But what lies beneath
Bad vibes and energy
That you always see
Hidden behind
You always got a friend in me
No toy story
The stories I talk I really walked them
Momma told me I'm the best
And she say it often
Growing' up inside my home
Was taught I was poppin'
Then I went into this world
Where I'm not an option
I'm electric
That was very shocking
Fast forward this big city girl
Got hella options
This big city girl
Got stock options
Didn't always know how to make it
I made concoctions
I really made it
Just by not stopping
Be still, be still
Everything you're feeling isn't real
Be still, be still
Everything I'm feeling isn't real
Be still, be still
Everything you're feeling isn't real
Be still, be still
Everything I'm feeling isn't real
Be Still
Be Still
