Being young and female in America, you watch a lot of T.V., and you grow up on false images of what love truly is. We think the man with the best rap will protect and save us, about it's not usually that way. Then you learn love is something deeper and purer in form.
For a while, the genre seemed to be just about sex and crime. Rappers are storytellers; the stories don't need to be true!

If I should fall asleep and death takes me away, Don't be surprised son, I wasn't put here to stay.
So while you're imitating Al Capone, I'll be Nina Simone, And defacating on your microphone
Consequence is no coincidence.
Let me break it down for you again, You know I only say it because I'm truly genuine: Don't be a hard rock when you really are a gem.
You might win some, but you just lost one.
I know you don't wanna hear my opinion, There come many paths and you must choose one. And if you don't change then the rain soon come. See, you might win some, but you just lost one.
I knew his life deserved a chance/But everybody told me to be smart/Look at your career they said/'Lauren, baby use your head'/But instead I chose to use my heart.
I keep letting you back in,how can I explain myself,as painful as this thing has been,I just can't be with no one else
I had to learn the hard way some really important life lessons. There was really no one there to say, don't do this or don't do that.
If they only showed Love, they would own love.
Like Cain and Abel, Caesar and Brutus, Jesus and Judas, back stabbers do this
