Jidenna ☆ Classic Man (feat. Roman GianArthur)

I done been through a whole lot
Trials and tribulations but I know God
Satan wanna put me in a bow tie
Praying that the holy water
don’t go dry yeah yeah
As I look around me
So many motherfuckers wanna down me
But ain’t no nigga never drown me
In front of a dirty double mirror
they found me
And I love myself
The world is a ghetto
with guns and Dickie signs
I love myself
But it can do what it want
whenever it wants and I don’t mind
I love myself
He said I gotta get up life
is more than suicide
I love myself
One day at the time sun gone shine
Everybody looking
at you crazy Crazy
What you gone do What you gone do
Lift up your head and
keep moving Keep moving
Or let the paranoia
haunt you Haunt you
Peace to fashion police
I wear my heart
On my sleeve let the runway start
You know the miserable
do love company
Fuck do you want
from me and my scars
Everybody lack confidence
everybody lack confidence
How many times
our potential was anonymous
How many times the city
making me promises
So I promise this
And I love myself
The world is a ghetto with
guns and Dickie signs
I love myself
But it can do what it want
whenever it wants and I don’t mind
I love myself
He said I gotta get up life
is more than suicide
I love myself
One day at the time sun gone shine
They wanna say
there’s a war outside
and a bomb in the street
And a gun in the hood
and a mob of police
And I rock on the corner
in a line full of fiends
And a bottle full of lean
and a model on the scene yup
These days of frustration
keep y’all on tucking rotation
I duck these gold faces
post up fee fi fo fum bases
Dreams of realities peace
Blow steam in the face of the beast
The sky can fall down
the wind can cry now
The strong in me I still smile
And I love myself
The world is a ghetto
with guns and Dickie signs
I love myself
But it can do what it want
whenever it wants and I don’t mind
I love myself
He said I gotta get up
life is more than suicide
I love myself
One day at the time sun gone shine
Walk my barefeet Walk my barefeet
Down down valley peak
Down down valley peak
I keep my fee fi fo fum Fee fi fo fum
I keep my heart undone
My heart undone
And I love myself
The world is a ghetto
with guns and Dickie signs
I love myself
But it can do what it want
whenever it wants and I don’t mind
I love myself
He said I gotta get up
life is more than suicide
I love myself
One day at the time sun gone shine
I went to war last night
I’mma do it ’til I get it right
I went to war last night
I’ve been dealing
with depression ever
since an adolescent
I can never yell the blessin’
l can never see the message
I can never take the lead
I can never bob and weave
For my nigga that be letting ‘em
alienate me
And the sound is moving
in a meteor speed
From a 100 to a billion’
til my body in the street
Keep my money in the ceiling
let my mama know I’m free
Give my story to the children
and the lesson they can read
And the glory to the feeling
of all of y’all scenes
Seen enough make a motherfucker
scream I love myself
I lost my head I must’ve misread
what the good book said
Oh woes keep me
it’s a jungle inside
Give myself again’
til the well runs dry
