forget me not - jaylien javanna lyrics

intro
i peeped you from across the room and i wondered if i was enough for you

verse 1
since the social anxiety got me feeling pressured
yeah, the social anxiety got me tryna measure
myself up to women who i know
i’ll never be
all i see are their flaws
so the flaw is in me
is it insecurity
feeding my jealousy
feeding fake bravery
feeding into ig
idol*i*zations
fake admiration
fake love
coupled with
the fake associations?
use drugs
to numb my pain
a coping mechanism
if you peer inside my brain
you’ll see evеry ism
every schism
that got me in this prison
but, through it all, i remain
yеs, i’ve arisen
heh
hook x3

mental purgatory
i just wanna be free
socially inept
i just wanna be me
wanna see me
shining, shining like bey
but, no we not gone cry
naw, auntie mary
@ the table like solange
in ctrl like solana
queenship setting sail
ss javanna
saving all my love
for someone like me
cause love is not compliments;
it’s complementary
learned in elementary that
boys will be boys *
the sad truth is that
to them
we’re all just toys
real men would wait
to get past the first date
and they antic*p*te
but they never have to state
what’s innate
ain’t all the real men great?
wait
let me negate
and let me restate
these real men will wait
to get past the first date
because they antic*p*te
an attachment that will stay
& then, these “real” men laughing
acting like it never happened
cause some these men are actors
like coercion ain’t a factor
as if someone is attacking
due to vulnerability
where in the h*ll
is your accountability?
if it wouldn’t have been me
another
outlet she would be
the next woman on his path
on his way to victory
in this society
we incubate the women*hate
blame it on the girls you date
say, “simple hoes will block your great.”
hook x3

21 years deep
plus another in the making
iron throne up ahead and i see it’s for the taking
most of y’all are faking
as the boxes get to breaking
as the cores get to shaking
as the people get to waking
up, up and away
i’m superwoman jay
mixed with black girl magic
call it dora milajae
spirit of assata
audre
sojourner
troops
who trumped trash views
just by telling us the truth
not alternative facts
really just lies
not respectability
not the pseudo compromise
look with our third eyes
to see the peace prize
from the n0ble womanists
who fight
protecting
black lives
hook x 3
