[Chorus: Amaarae]
Sonic pre-madonna with a penchant for young mommas
With a diva attitude and a flex just like madonnas
You think you could make it better but she swears she never let you
'Cause she really will do it alone
Turn down every offer, chicken change up out the cougher
Turning nickels dimes and copper just to get up out the projects
To a chopper mama, yeah, I see you, I wanna be strong like you
But I wouldn't wanna be you
Sonic pre-madonna with a penchant for young mommas
With a diva attitude and a flex just like madonnas
You think you could make it bеtter but she swears shе never let you
'Cause she really will do it alone
Turn down every offer, chicken change up out the cougher
Turning nickels dimes and copper just to get up out the projects
To a chopper mama, yeah, I see you, I wanna be strong like you
But I wouldn't wanna be you
[Verse 1: M3NSA]
As I commot from the darkness then the light be too bright
Use my intuition if I ne dey trust my two eyes
The distractions dey conf man so I constant dey jump plans to stop
Man from keeping strong like some stunt man
I'll tell you this, man, the trickery be some shit to me
We no know where we dey go 'cause we no dey kai wonna history
That slippery slope, no epiphany of hope
And let it be spoke say we niggas be dope
No mimic we bespoke, no gimmick no joke
Pure passion in every thing, I'd rather be broke
Andon't be mad at me, bro, 'cause failing no dey in my anatomy though
They waiting to see just how far can we go
I dey in my Kotoka when I land for Heathrow
We only look up to each other 'cause we no get heroes
Continue to try wonna best from every angle we know
[Refrain: M3NSA]
Still dey inside, oh
They shock sey we still rise, oh
My eye dey on the prize, oh
And we never go fit to backslide, oh
We still dey inside, oh
Just dey live wonna life, oh
And try enjoy the ride, oh
And we never go fit to backslide, oh
[Chorus: Amaarae]
Sonic pre-madonna with a penchant for young mommas

Turning nickels dimes and copper just to get up out the projects
To a chopper mama, yeah, I see you, I wanna be strong like you
But I wouldn't wanna be you
[Verse 2: M3NSA]
You dey try ever since, you no fit bust my bubble, full of effervescence
Transcending your trendsetting, Black Excellence
But some dey call am heresy, this be irreverence
Do am the way I like and fuck your sentiments, wow
Now dem dey ask we how we do am
Make we show dem how we plant the seeds make dem go tu tuu am

Go hopefully open the way for you too to come

[Verse 3: Amaarae]
Poor pauper, wretched teacher
Chopper mama, yeah, I see you, I wanna be strong like you
But I wouldn't wanna be you
Speaking true word is my position
I need to get this guala off a wordsmith, uh
Get this nut up off a bird, bitch
Telling me it Hermés when its hermes
Oh, oh, kill em with the quickness, but they say its too soon
I need to get this guala out this bird cage
Whip a haiku then I serve it like it's first base
Singing rhymes like it's first grade
And if you feel it like I feel it
You should go on right ahead and let the word say
[Refrain: M3NSA, M3NSA & Amaarae]
Still dey inside, oh
They shock sey we still rise, oh
My eye dey on the prize, oh
And we never go fit to backslide, oh
We still dey inside, oh
Just dey live wonna life, oh
And try enjoy the ride, oh
And we never go fit to backslide, oh
Dey shock sey we still rise, oh
My eye dey on the prize, oh
And we never go fit to backslide, oh
Still dey inside, oh
No time for bad mind, oh
They wan' hurt wanna pride, oh
And we never go fit to backslide, oh
[Outro]
Still dey inside, oh
Still dey inside, oh
Still dey inside, oh
Still dey inside, oh
Still dey inside, oh
Still dey inside, oh
Still dey inside, oh
