Oktane
They gon′ run back to they Pro Tools session after they hear this
Grab they phone, call the engineers, tell 'em, "Stop the mix"
Media sellin′ fibs, tellin' false narratives
'Bout our mamas, ′bout our sisters, aunties, daughters, nieces, ribs
Fat ass, thick thighs, hyper-sexualized
Slap dance, pole slides, only thing she got to give
You′ll be lucky if she love you
You'll be lucky if she ever talk to you
Walk past, breathe on you, look at you
(Precious like the water)
Precious like the water
(Precious like the pearls)
Precious like the pearls
(Sweetest flower ever known)
Sweetest flower ever known
(Woman of the world)
Woman of the world
All these women, they love me, can′t get enough of it
Hold me, pull me in tight, baby, ride me in through the night
They never care what you goin' through
Do they even see what you do to survive on the daily?
These niggas blind
Know society think you crazy, belligerent
Angry bitch always screamin′, but they don't know what′s inside
Strength to carry the world on shoulders
The leader of movements don't get the credit we owe you
That shit ain't right
(Precious like the water)
Precious like the water
(Precious like the pearls)
Precious like the pearls
(Sweetest flower ever known)
Sweetest flower ever known
(Woman of the world)
Woman of the world
She was the first human ever, so if you breathin′, you owe her
She′ll be the last when it's over, we know she know more than us
But won′t let her office be oval, rather offer her lower
She gotta question her morals to feel like
She in control of what happens to her
Check your attitude, bust that shit open, they snappin' to her
′Nother amateur, night on the pole
Lovin' a man with no right to her soul
All my peanut butter, cinnamon, chocolate skin women
Raised herself and her kids, and the man she made them with
Always doin′ extra 'cause she never feel protected
Workin' double shifts while she pregnant
Everybody want it, ain′t nobody worth it
Call her first when it′s urgent, but reverse it, it's a burden
Play her position with no MVP trophy
Speak her mind every time she reminded that she′s lonely
(Precious like the water)
She never lonely, precious like the water
And I'm up there knowin′
(Precious like the pearls)
Precious like the pearls
(Sweetest flower ever known)
Sweetest flower ever known
(Woman of the world)
Woman of the world
