I was never resonant I became the resident
Evidently, melanin is relevant
Injected in the skeletons I kept inside my closet
Everyone on steroids, I was chasing for a comet
Working from an office, music is my motive
Asteroid Hotel and in Amsterdam I'm floating
Channel Aristotle, from the nipple to the bottle
Not so simple, I'm a coral, ecosystem, inner symbol
Of diversity, the sinful, frequent as cymbal
Ace, it like it's Wimbledon, everywhere the simpletons
Represent the decadence of culture
I embody Durga so I nurture them, sit under my diadem
Rowena - everybody talks about it, no one's ever seen her
Exodus impending, I birth it like a Venus
Monitor my breathing, checking all my feelings
And I'm tryna let you know that I ain't gonna be
I don't intend to be another one of yours
Another one of your whores
This is a fallacy, I'm telling you because
I am the birth of Venus (The birth, the birth, the birth)
I don't need to be (Perfect like Venus)
I don't wanna be (Perfect because)
I will never be (Perfect like Venus)
I don't wanna be (Perfect, because)
Y'all, this goes out to all my Venuses out there
All my sisters out there struggling on a daily basis
Around these dudes, and if you're one of these dudes
This one's for you - this one's for you!
The other day, I was at 99p store, tryna buy some gardening tools
And this dude's like "Uh uh uh uh, Miss, you dropped something"
So, I follow him inside and I look at the floor, trying to find was I missed
And he's like "I just wanted to chat with you", so I look at him like
"Dude, I got shit to do and you think of me that I get up in the morning
And leave my house to meet losers like you?" (I'm confused)
I don't intend to be another one of yours
Another one of your whores
This is a fallacy, I'm telling you because
I am the birth of Venus (The birth, the birth, the birth)
I don't need to be (Perfect like Venus)
I don't wanna be (Perfect because)
I will never be (Perfect like Venus)
I don't wanna be (Perfect, because)
Tying knots is intricate, multiply my syndicates
Indicative, innovative and insulate (While I'm)
Flying to peninsulas, waging on a minimum
Looking for an elegant description (I am)
Honest and I'm loyal but I hide it like Calypso
I got my key to Windsor, diaspora my symptom
Sharp enough to injure, I'm the anagram of ninja
Think before I theorise, growing like bacteria
I woke up n' I face the fact, "Being Venus is a trap"
Throwback to bulimia, verging on hysteria
Don't believe your theory, I was cut for hara-kiri
Sacrifice is to believe in, the philosophy lead in
Quantum physics the beginning
You say bye, I say good riddance
Borderline awaiting clearance
Pushing limits on my waking soul
That's all I've ever know, it's all I'm ever gonna know
I don't intend to be another one of yours
Another one of your whores
This is a fallacy, I'm telling you because
I am the birth of Venus (The birth, the birth, the birth)
I don't need to be (Perfect like Venus)
I don't wanna be (Perfect because)
I will never be (Perfect like Venus)
I don't wanna be (Perfect, because)
