lyrics

I gotta bad attitude
A misconception that I'm rude
Really just an introvert
A dude who never wants to leave her room
I'm always in mood
Groovy lil Scooby doo
Damn I got some groovy moves
I guess that's kinda cool

Cooking up the chemistry
A boy genius like Doogie Howser
Life can be a Debbie Downer
I'm doctor for the people
Never cower til we equal
Throwing fists at the doubters
Fight til my last breathe
And every lifetime after next
A rebel to da cause
I'm pressing play you pressing pause
Danny Glover on the track
I am lethal regal as a beetle
Grab da brushes and an easel
Let me paint this Mona Lisa
Let the vinyl hit the needle
Gods plan this shit cathedral
Pinky and the brain it's so cerebral
See I've gone thru withdrawals
Man you don't wanna know
What these drugs can do
Battle after battle
Blues after blues
Step into another's shoes
Stop self medicating
Repair this trauma through this cadence
Repair this generational trauma
Through this cadence

Ric Flair with the drip
Pretty boy I never trip
Keep it steady when I'm loading clips
To my IG but they just hits
Of me and CC skate witches
Snaking through the ditches
Gliding through the city of the bridges
Laughing til we pop our stitches
Money motives
Stacking riches
Living life on the fringes
We some lonely girls
Tryna leave a legacy of love
In this lonely world
We some lonely girls

I'm searching for
What money can't buy
I keep my head to the sky
I'm searching for
What money can't buy
Keep my head to the sky
I gotta bad attitude
A misconception that I'm rude
Really just an introvert
A dude who never wants to leave her room
I'm always in mood
Groovy lil Scooby doo
Damn I got some groovy moves
I guess that's kinda cool

I take it one day at a time
Do what I do to survive
Words cutting so deep
Deep as a knife
Mortal Kombat
Kitana Kitana
She ready to fight
Nirvana nirvana
Come as you are
Why did Cobain have to die

I gotta bad attitude
A misconception that I'm rude
Really just an introvert
A dude who never wants to leave her room
I'm always in mood
Groovy lil Scooby doo
Damn I got some groovy moves
I guess that's kinda cool
I'm searching for
What money can't buy
I keep my head to the sky
I'm searching for
What money can't buy
Keep my head to the sky
I'm searching for
What money can't buy
Keep my head to the sky
I'm searching for
What money can't buy
Keep my head to the sky
