I Used To (Bonus Track)

I used to want my daughter to be light-skinned wit some dimples
I used to put that Colgate on my face to dry them pimples
I used to think, "If I could change my face, life would be simple"
I used to cry about my stretch marks, it was really mental
I used to do
I used to do
That's jus sumn I used to do
That's jus sumn I used to do
I used to do
I used to do
Sumn I used to do
Yeah, Ay! Something that I used to do

Used to feel insecure, didn't understand
Mommy say I'm beautiful, how I ain't see it then?
Smiling every single day, but how could I pretend
Like it ain't hurt when guy a pass me over for my friends
Not sayin' that I needed 'em or even wanted 'em
But at the end of the day, I'm like, "What's wrong wit 'em
Or could it be me? Am I not pretty?
She lighter than me? Or is it my teeth?
Why they don't see me?"

I used to want my daughter to be light-skinned wit some dimples

I used to do
I used to do
That's jus sumn I used to do
Yeah, that's jus sumn I used to do
I used to do
I used to do
Sumn I used to
Yeah, Ay! Something that I used to do

You are now in tuned to the new improved
Attitude, used to be real sweet, but now my lyrics rude
Spit the truth
You can't handle that, then girl you better move
This a groove
I keep telling you, "got something to prove"
I was young, lack the confidence
Thought I wasn't lit
I'm legit
Looked in the mirror, told myself, "You can't quit"
Won't forget
When I was down bad they wasn't by my side
Lookin' back, I knew they wouldn't ride
Had to realize
