Salymah IV - Autobiography (feat. Jamil) Lyrics

The energy that you're putting into like whether it's volunteering That your music deserves that
All that energy and time
You should be able to sit around studio sitting for hours
If you see you know what I'm saying
Like I want to work on an autobiography of Salymah IV
InshaAllah
What's your introduction
How would you introduce your life

Meet Salymah IV born poet spring flower picked out a garden full of lotus floating on water
Business mindset was far fetched now it's held close
Rocked solo ain't do clicks was born into some friends
Yo six siblings strong tighter than a clenched fist
Been down since the 90s 96 Olympics
Striving real hard to protect what I'm given
Ain't nothing a mistake when everything is written
Shell shocked seen a little war hurt on last tour
Same place had my breakdown became my breakthrough
California used to party Atl I partied too
5 am Atlanta ever young I-V loves you

I'ma show you what I got till I V stop dripping
I'ma show you what I got till my clock stop ticking
Family third self second God first that's living
Out here striving real hard to protect what I'm given

Georgia peach family in the city always spent the night
Cousin came every weekend we always had fights
No comparisons don't compare to none an ATL-ien
Lived in every zone from the four
Peace to Fathead bro
From Georgia prefer green tea over sweet
Ain't trying to get diabetes from sugar amputee
Done had the same best companions since the sixth grade
Juice then Queen seen me squeezing lemons
Now drink lemonade
Got molested by a pastor Markees held me down
Congregation tried to lie wife knew the whole time
After beating bad down do my best to keep striving
Once some one is disloyal 3 strikes no more coiling

I'ma show you what I got till I V stop dripping
I'ma show you what I got till my clock stop ticking
Family third self second God first that's living
Out here striving real hard to protect what I'm given

I'm a semi truck on the highway switching lanes
People see me merging speeding up fast Tory Lanez
Seeking thrills early morning Tendency to stay sane in my element
Silenced past shame damn age can't be rounding up damage
Only rounding up dollars am I a queen or a rapper
When they see me questions follow
Phenomenal I am I can live without labels
Mystery stay mystic mark my words fear contagious
Third album third album can't be stopped
Candy girl look in the mirror see me coming
Always daddy's girl unwrapped by the hands of pure intended souls
Making music for families pawns see me they can't move

I'ma show you what I got till I V stop dripping
I'ma show you what I got till my clock stop ticking
Family third self second God first that's living
Out here striving real hard to protect what I'm given
