3:20Saba：
3:20Yeah can't police my
3:21Can't tell me when to release my
3:22What you looked into and then find
3:24Brought up the same news the last time
3:25I wasn't hidin' that was just private that was dear diary
3:28Why you entitled
3:28Why are you pryin'
3:29Say I'm too quiet watch how they gon' flip it
3:31That's not how I meant it but that's how they write it
3:32I'ma hear about it in the written column
3:33If they gon' misquote me what's the point in talkin'
3:35It is not promotion
3:36Only nonsense and it's not important
3:37Not headlinin' I was unimportant I didn't talk about it
3:39I don't talk about it but that's how I liked it
3:41I don't go outside so much they don't invite me
3:42Interview and now there's no need for the spyin'
3:44Are you mad
3:45Yes I'm mad
3:46Yes I'm Black no I don't elaborate
3:48I said oh yeah I had to say
3:50No you ain't got the answers wait
3:51No human is immaculate
3:52Gon' be dreadlocked and tatted faced
3:54That's the story they'll gravitate
3:56Stovetop day one what I don't got
3:59Devil's advocate I saw them play both sides
4:02That's the line they'll cross for exposure
4:05Recluse reluctant to share most times
4:07Jamila Woods：
4:08After after all
4:13These teeth are not employed
4:16You can't police my joy
4:20After after all
4:25My smile is not employed
4:28You can't police my joy
4:32After after all
4:36These teeth are not employed
4:39You can't police my joy
4:43After after all
4:48My smile is not employed
4:51You can't police my joy

5:03You can't police my joy
5:07After
5:08After all
5:11My smile is not employed
5:15You can't police my joy
5:18It's like you want me to be
5:20You're tryin' to provoke me
5:21This s**t hereditary
5:23The pressure rising rising
5:24Some days I'm almost carefree
5:26Some days I wish I could be
5:27So many women in me
