Solange - God Given Name lyrics

rate me

Explosive...

Ba Ba...

Explosive...

Welcome to Solange & Hadley Street Dreams

Get me, get me, out of this box

I feel so claustrophobic in here

Leave your labels, leave with no vision

Hear my voice and feel with yo ears

I'm no soul girl quipped with no afro

I'm just my God given name (oooohhhh)

I'm not becoming expectations

I'm not her and never will be

Two girls going in different directions

Striving towards the same galaxy

Let my star light shine on it's own

No, I'm no sister

Just my God given name (ooohhh)

And I'm sorry if this planet that I'm living on is quizzical

My lyrical ambitions sometimes don't ring a bell

I'm sorry if my visual don't line up with my feelings

And my physical exhibit doesn't represent me well

I'm sorry if I'm curious, delirious, and I don't take life serious

I mirror the life of a millionaire

I'm sorry if I'm talking shit

But I really do mean well (I really do)

We got a long, long moon to glow

Hadley's a long road to travel

I gotta dream to keep my eyes opennnnnnn...

We got so long to go...

We got so far to go...

Hadley's a long road, Hadley's a long road

God given name

I sound high don't I?

I promise I'm not high
