lyrics

I aint tryna be the one to take my life away

Then I walked up out darkness had to find my way

It’s like the moral of the story fail and walk the stage

Then Im whippin up these coastes on the furthest day



Nobody ever showed me how to walk this way

Then I took out all the darkness had to leave that space

It’s like the old me ain’t the new me cuz I walked away

I ain’t trippin I’m just closest to the furthest day



Beautiful black child

Some like wild child

Better go watch out (better go watch out)

Living that Wild life (living that wild life)

Smooth like shea butter

That sounds way better

Know there’s way better

Turns out way better



Turn it up fuck it up

Drop down flip that

Baptise sip it up

Times are real I’m trying

Roll that window (window)

Baptise sip it up

Self you pick it up

That’s that real love


I ain’t tryna be the one to take my life away

Then I walked up out darkness had to find my way

It’s like the moral of the story fail and walk the stage

Then Im whippin up these coastes on the furthest day



Nobody ever showed me how to walk this way

Then I took out all the darkness had to leave that space

It’s like the old me ain’t the new me cuz I walked away

I ain’t trippin I’m just closest to the furthest day



I ain’t tryna

I ain’t tryna



Beautiful black child

Sumn like wild child

Loving that wild life

Better come find out

Shine like Shea butter

Timeless love letter

Know there’s way better

Turns out way better



Never gon sit back

Never gon sniff that

Drive in my lane though

At the top where I aim for

Never gon lose self

Never gon derail (derail)

Baptise sip it up

Soul will prevail



I aint tryna be the one to take my life away

Then I walked up out darkness had to find my way

It’s like the moral of the story fail and walk the stage

Then I’m whippin up these coastes on the furthest day



Nobody ever showed me how to walk this way

Then I took out all the darkness had to leave that space

It’s like the old me ain’t the new me cuz I walked away

I ain’t trippin I’m just closest to the furthest day




Nobody ever showed me how to walk this way

(I ain’t tryna)

Nobody (I ain’t tryna)

the old me ain’t the new me cuz I walked away

I ain’t trippin I’m just closest to the furthest day
