Other Me

I'm waking up
Got Du Monde in the coffee cup
The stress is high when the sunrise but I can't erupt
I make 'em breakfast, lunch
Fixing up the ponytails
Drop 'em off, throw the trash
Feed the cat, check the mail
And all the while my anxiety starts a-creepin' in
I roll the j, I blaze it up just to breathe it in
Take a second to give thanks for another day
A true descendant of wayfinders, I find a way
Nothing been the same ever since my mama died
Smoke away the pain, make the song cry
It's all the same
No one said "adulting is a lie"
Make it up as we go
We're just getting by
Won't let these bastards grind me down into baby powder
Won't let these Adams turn me out
I'm a Ruff Ryder
Won't let these cowards cancel me
Feed me to the wolves
It's more than goals, it's destiny how my life unfolds

You are my other me (Other me, other me)
I am your other you (Other you, other you)
Now what's become of me? (Come of me, come of me)
Now what are we, now what are we, now what are we to do?

No need to interfere
I'll sabotage by myself
No competition harder on me than anyone else
The same affection you have for me
Is what hurts your heart
Jealousy is love and hate
They are not apart
And being hard ain't a flex
I favor tenderness
I been fighting way too long
I been way too blessed
I ain't dissing my haters
When I speak the truth
Millennial, feminist, I can take abuse
Pure reflection
I'm a mirror for intention so
If you're projecting, it's my job
To let you know
I'm only human but I am so exceptional
They could never AI me, I'm un-AI-able
I'm one of one, always been
Bitch, my name is Krish
They do the cross around me now, say I'm devilish
But I don't pray to the devil
Not even Satan can
Control my mind or my body, if he's a silly man

I am so proud of me (Proud of me, proud of me)
We are so proud of you (Proud of you, proud of you)
There ain't no stopping us (Stopping us, stopping us)
There's nothing they can, nothing they can, nothing they can do
