Little Simz - Tainted Lyrics

She thinks
She thinks the world revolves around her
What she thinks she blinks and sees nothing
But flowers and leaves
Everything's rosy in her eyes
Closed-minded and blinded by the lights
Makeup is her disguise
An insight of her life is
Nothing short of a lie
Money and time is nonexistent but to her
It's all that matters

Always knew I'd be in this
Position where I'm killing it
Yeah, I'm bragging and I tell 'em
How the f*ck I'm feeling
Money, money, money, money, yeah
You get the gist
You're talking 'bout loyalty but you
Don't know the meaning
I dare these niggas here to try me
You think you're the shit
But I've been like this from early
From when I was teething
How I'm feeling, play my shit at parties
Not museums you can keep your love
It's just money that I'm reaching for

You can keep your love
It's the money I've been reaching for
Steady bossing
You should know what I've got in store
Everything is backwards
Can I grow to be immature?
Shit, though, I've been leaning
You should know what this light is for
Killing my pride, you are
Here's the keys to my house and my car
Not my heart
But my soul, shit is cold and it's dark, ooh
I love the paper, nothing will tear us apart
Ooh i love the hate, I know you're burning
I'm a star
Couple animals that ride with me, Noah's ark
F*ck the world, I'm rich
Remind me who you are?
I don't do this for the music
F*ck your keys and guitars
Just got here and I'm running this shit
I could buy your life if I wanted to, bitch
Invested in a business
My work has made that money flip
Play this in the club, play this to your kids
Play this when you're faded, have a smoke
Have a sip have a dab, get loose, let me
Tell you what it is, uh
See, I don't owe the world shit, you div
I worked to get here
I'mma tell you how I live
Yeah, this is my lifestyle
Either love it or hate it
Old friends look at me
They ain't happy I made it
Mum looks at me like where's
The daughter I was raising?
She was gone long time
She was way too gracious

Always knew I'd be in this
Position where I'm killing it
Yeah, I'm bragging and I tell 'em
How the f*ck I'm feeling
Money, money, money, money, yeah
You get the gist
You're talking 'bout loyalty but you
Don't know the meaning
I dare these niggas here to try me
You think you're the shit
But I've been like this from early
From when I was teething how I'm feeling
Play my shit at parties every day
You can keep your love
It's just money that made me this way

Her whole world crashes and
Burns, turns to ashes, no looking back now
Having to deal with the fatal impact
How will she react now?
Calls upon things she left in the
Past due to her rotten attitude
Longing for love again only reminiscing
This must be a lesson learnt or two
She looks above and around
To ask for forgiveness from me, from you
S-s-sorry, sorry
Ask God for forgiveness right now
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Ask family for forgiveness right now
S-s-s-s-s-s-s-sorry, I'm sorry
Ask the world for forgiveness right now
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, s-s-sorry
Ask my people for forgiveness right now
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Ask God for forgiveness right now
I'm sorry, s-s-s-sorry

Never thought I'd be in this position
This is such a myth
I lost all my money, how the f*ck I'm feeling
I wish that I'd done this different
When I had the chance
When I tell you that I'm sorry
I promise I mean it
God, I know we ain't spoke in a little bit
I know I'm not an angel but I'm not a demon
I know I'm not an angel but I'm not a demon
But you can keep your money
It's just love that I'm needing

Whoa f*ck all of that! Give me the
Money, the cars, the crib, the keys
The everything, I mean the key to your
Life, the key to your soul
Get f*cked f*ck everyone else this is
Me doing what I want, this
Is what I want, God
This is what I earned if you're
With me, you're with me, if you're not then
Do one this is me, I'm a king, yeah
My soul is tainted, my soul is tainted
My soul is tainted
My soul is tainted, my soul is tainted
My soul is tainted
My soul is tainted, my soul is tainted
My soul is tainted
My soul is tainted, my soul is tainted
My soul is tainted
