Who Listens to Nerd Lady?

Alien babies and outcasts
The ones that get picked last
Headphones on full blast
The ones who don't like class
Cuz they different and they know it
Broken hearts, they don't show it
They go home to a garden where nothing's ever growing
The roses from the concrete, the hip hop heads
The ones who say screw it cuz they'd rather be dead
The babies with depression and ADHD
Come, bring me your perils, together we'll seek
Answers to this madness - hatred on this Earth
I been looking forever, my February birth
To the Stans and The Barbs
The Lovatics and The Hotties
Come vibe with me cuz I love everybody
I'm spreading my kindness to ordinary nerds
Please take this apology for those you never heard
My words can be bullets or a saving grace
They chose words to hurt you
Lady shows another way

I just put my heart out, I leave it for the taking
We bottom of the barrel but tonight, we're elevating
Open for interpretation; my thoughts are levitating
This Boom Bap a drug and I stay hallucinating
A world where I'm happy, where we don't exist
Cuz no one ever hurt us, and we got to be kids.
Insecurities and voices, they sing to me at night
I was thrown into a ring before I ever learned to fight
I saw a doc the other day, it was all about the Turpins
My heart broke in pieces and in my mortal searching
When it comes to praying... It don't matter where you from
But sometimes where you from ain't a place where you can hum
A soothing lullaby or a nursery rhyme
Hip hop takes the reigns, just enough to get by
Who listens to Nerd Lady? The ones who can't cry
Clipped wings and shut beaks... watch us break the cage and fly

We get sent so many warnings and signs of the unknown
But we ignore them with pride, and act like we grown
I woke up one day, asking where'd the time go
In my own ignorance, I discovered this flow
And if this is all I have, I'm hunting like an animal
I read the news daily, it's easy to lose hope
I been speeding all my life, but tonight I take it slow
Cuz evil comes in droves, Yeshua where did you go
When I needed you the most, I know I did the most
I've lost a lot of people; many homies went ghost
Never been one for the bubbly, I don't want to toast
Don't slide into my DMs, on the night I finally blow
Cuz if you part of my vision, I've already reached out
It's December 21' and I put my foot down
I'm not asking for a miracle, just a will to live
Who listens to Nerd Lady? Go ahead and ask your kids
