Sho Nuff
Uh, yeah
I came from them Kansas City streets
I was born and raised on that Kansas City, B
I was blessed, I stayed dressed, I had food to eat
I was walking on water on my Kansas City feet
But the current was strong, mama went down for ten years
My brothers and I cried a thousand and ten tears
We had fears, we should've never had his kids
So we chose to act the pain out in the shit that we did
I had to make a choice
Either choose silence or choose to raise my voice
Be a free woman or stay a slave, of course, It wasn't easy, believe me
Rejection is the norm, people may never receive me
Yeah, people may not even see me
'Cause everybody wants a freebie
They tell me I can speak freely
But when I speak major truth they mighta keep me, uh, yeah
Oh, something's wrong, something's wrong
They want my body but not my soul
Something's wrong, something's wrong
I came from them Kansas City streets
I was born and raised on that Kansas City, B
I was blessed, I stayed dressed, I had food to eat
I was walking on water on my Kansas City feet
But the current was strong, mama went down for ten years
My brothers and I cried a thousand and ten tears
We had fears, we should've never had his kids
So we chose to act the pain out in the shit that we did

Rejection is the norm, people may never receive me
Yeah, people may not even see me
'Cause everybody wants a freebie

But when I speak major truth they mighta keep me, uh, yeah
Oh, something's wrong, something's wrong
They want my body but not my soul
Something's wrong, something's wrong
