The only one who had my back before the bassinet
When friends would play me in the wind just like a clarinet
You taught me love, strength, sacrifices, alphabet
Struggled to get out of debt, but never let them see you sweat
Independent black woman used to be a epithet
Now it just empowers you, now they see you as a threat
Now you got a grown child, still wild, you don't fret
'Cause she advocating for our great like a suffragette
Yeah, you taught me how to do the subtle flex
Yeah, you told me patience and the proper steps
Were needed, can't be speeding if you want success
Gain your experience then tell them folks to cut the check
Always admired how your presence just commands respect
Never saw you chase a man 'cause what will be will manifest
You gave me life, you saved my life, forever in your debt
Just something that you ought to know Alanis Morrisette
It's something that you ought to know, Alanis Morrisette
It's something that you ought to know, Alanis Morrisette
It's something that you ought to know, Alanis Morrisette
It's something that you ought to know
Same sign, same grind, same dreams
Similar upbringing, we on the same team
Remember scraping up the change in hopes to change things
Now all we have is full detachment and estranged things
We made a pledge in '15, gotta get cream
Mentally came undone from the seams, words I didn't mean
Out of the hurt and the anger I was inflicted with
Severed our friendship instead of sharpen my penmanship
The thing 'bout life you gotta live with it
And now I'm realizing all the wisdom in my ignorance
If you love someone you gotta always keep it real with them
'Preciate you giving me the closure so to heal within
When I get that pie just know your slices are Sicilian
Turn around and thug it, buy the oven and the building then
Fond of your diligence, brilliance, and resilience
Just know that you're the definition of one in a million
Forreal
It's something that you ought to know, Alanis Morrisette
It's something that you ought to know, Alanis Morrisette
It's something that you ought to know, Alanis Morrisette
It's something that you ought to know
