rika (nyc) - tenacity كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
take you back through my history
big dreams from the ripe old age of 3
a ham of a little lamb, spunky as could be
blessed to have parents who believed in me
somewhere ‘long the way
learned to play it safe, hibernate
wishin’ for a chance that i’d never take anyway
contemplate my next move, but never make it
to be fair, i did dare, but on occasion
i don’t even wanna sing on this track
i need to rap, get aggressive, get some shit off my back (uh)
or off my chest i guess
scream out the window how i got my soul back
how the young girl i used to know’s back
and i’m a work in progress
but i finally got out my own way long enough to see progress
finally i saw that it was up to me
to show that little girl the world and let my mind be free

[chorus]

float like a b-tterfly, sting like a b-mble
heart of a lioness in concrete jungle
leap tall buildings in a single bound
got my eyes on the prize so i don’t look down
to become the person always knew that i could be
takes faith, love, grit, and tenacity
i’m a new york city girl from the borough of queens
i came to do this shit here and just follow my dreams

[verse 2]

and i been at it for years
this is just the time that i finally appear
this is just the time i release all fear
any questions, or have i made myself clear?
excuse me, yo, i’m sorry i’m just feelin’ myself right now
this the type of beat that used to light me up as a child
this that east coast bang that made my heart sing
don’t be fooled by my complexion ’cause i know a few things, and
this is just the time that i take what’s mine and never settle
put the pedal to the metal let’s go
no man, woman or child will disrupt my flow
waited a long time to shine so now there’s no
going backwards, retract and extract
any single little thing that’s ever really held me back (uh)
always knew i was a leader
universe believer, super diva, high achiever
one more verse, go feed the meter

[chorus]

[verse 3]
i don’t want kids, but if i did i would tell’em this:
don’t be afraid of your own power, baby, just go for it
shit, i wasted plenty of hours ’til i was over it
decided i was not the type who’s gonna die thinking “what if?”
maybe was necessary, maybe i had to grow
why it had to take so long maybe i’ll never know
all i know is life feels so much better when it feels like you
when you finally are doing all the things you said you wanted to
no matter how long that shit take
and you feel like you might break
but you keep going — that’s the fire in you
real recognize real — namaste
the real in me sees real in you
and i hope that we all win some day
do something positive
build a conglomerate off love, peace, and tolerance
build each other up so we can all be prosperous
we could take this world higher
but it starts with each of us
and the depth of our desire

[chorus]

follow, follow (uh)
follow, follow my dreams
follow, follow my dreams
