Scrutiny (My Opposite Reaction)
You wanna be
You wanna be
You wanna be
My opposite reaction
But are you up
Are you equal to the task
To the role
To the satisfaction
You wanna be
A part of me
A piece of me
Times three
You better gain some traction
Are you up
Are you equal
To the task
MVP
To the role
To the satisfaction
I'm a been there done that girl
Can take care of me
Don't need no semi-sweet daddy
To get what I need
I want a man
Up
Who can hold his own
And still be a man
When the camera pans
When the flash is gone
You wanna be
You wanna be
You wanna be
My opposite reaction
But are you up
Are you equal to the task
To the role
To the satisfaction
I not diving for pearls
I'm a ways and means girl
Ways to make your flag unfurl
Means to christen your clover
But know I got over myself
Don't doubt I can get over you
I need to
Believe you
Can live through
The scrutiny of you and me
I need to
Believe you
Can see thru
The high def lie they magnify
Melted under the spotlight
Melted under the heat lamp
Melted under the pressure
Point blank
Disjointed
Scrutiny of you and me
Wilted hidden in plain sight
Tilted over to high camp
Jilted hung out
The second rate overstated
High def lie we magnify
You wanna be
You wanna be
You wanna be
My opposite reaction
But are you up
Are you equal to the task
To the role
To the satisfaction
You wanna be
A part of me
A piece of me
Times three
You better gain some traction
Are you up
Are you equal
To the task
MVP
To the role
To the satisfaction
This is not a game
Wannabe
This is for real
Go time
Time to step up
Show the streets how you feel
So you can handle this
Or be dismissed
You weren't the first
Now not the last on my list
You wanna be
You wanna be
You wanna be
My opposite reaction
You wanna be
You wanna be
My opposite reaction
But are you up
Are you equal to the task
To the role
To the satisfaction
You wanna be
A part of me
A piece of me
Times three
You better gain some traction
Are you up
Are you equal
To the task
MVP
To the role
To the satisfaction
I'm a been there done that girl
Can take care of me
Don't need no semi-sweet daddy
To get what I need
I want a man
Up
Who can hold his own
And still be a man
When the camera pans
When the flash is gone
You wanna be
You wanna be
You wanna be
My opposite reaction
But are you up
Are you equal to the task
To the role
