lyrics

I wanna be gracious
I wanna be kind
I wanna take the highest road that I can find

My mind is blown
It's a feeling
Of disbelief in what I'm hearing
Reading, seeing, is not always believing
Over and over and over on repeat
No need to rewind
It's an alternate reality in real time
You can say it this way today
A different way tomorrow
Just to try to fuck with my memory
Integrity, hey ma what's that?
Everybody wants it, not everybody has it
It's like Queen Latifah said back in '93
U N I T Y
That's unity

I wanna be gracious
I wanna be kind
I wanna take the highest road that I can find
But the things you've said and done
Make we drop every good thing that my mama taught me

You can tune in
You can tune out
Just turn yourself all the way up
This is for my mother
This is for my daughter
Do it how you want just show up for one another
Please pass the sharpie on the left-hand side
I need to make a sign
I need to hold it high
There's some things that have got to stop
Nobody grabbing nobody on my watch

I wanna be gracious
I wanna be kind
I wanna take the highest road that I can find
But the things you've said and done
Make we drop every good thing that my mama taught me
