[Spoken:] Exclusive, Exclusive, Welcome to Solange & The Hadley Street Dreams
|
|
Get me get me out of this box
|
I feel so claustrophobic in here
|
Leave your labels lead with no vision
|
Here my voice and fill with your ears
|
I'm no soul girl equipped with no afro
|
I'm just my God given name
|
|
I'm not becoming expectations
|
I'm not her and never will be
|
Two girls going in different directions
|
Traveling towards the same galaxy
|
Let my starlight shine on it's own
|
No I'm no sister
|
I'm just my God given name
|
|
And I'm sorry that this planet that I'm living on is quizzical
|
My lyrical ambitions sometimes don't ring a bell
|
I'm sorry if my visual don't line up with my feelings
|
And my physical exhibit doesn't represent me well
|
I'm sorry if I'm curious, delirious and I don't take life serious
|
I'm living the life of a millionaire
|
And I'm sorry if I'm talking shit
|
But I really do mean well
|
|
We've got a long long moon to glow
|
Hadley's a long road to travel
|
I gotta dream to keep my eyes open
|
We've got a long long moon to glow
|
Hadley's the long road to travel
|
I gotta dream to keep my eyes open
|
|
We've got so long to go
|
We've got so far to go
|
Hadley's the long road
|
Hadley's the long road
|
God given name
|
|
[Spoken:] I sound high don't I
|
I was going to ask you what's the matter
|
[laughs] I promise I'm not high
