[01:00.877]But you ain't understanding that
[01:02.928]You say you need you a real man to handle that
[01:05.968]So while I'm out in the real world, where you can be held down if a man is black to come home and handle you
[01:11.366]When I'm trying to handle that, I'm being punked where the camera's at
[01:14.776]It's never about the struggle
[01:15.966]You really should focus on how a man reacts
[01:18.303]Damn. Why would I stand for that
[01:21.250]It should be deeper than people like to admit sometimes just trying to unlearn certain things
[01:27.226]Yeah, I was taught that a man protects and provides, dealing with men who lack drive but still expect me to ride
[01:34.660]A black woman in this world left with pain and abuse, then come home and still gotta cater to you
[01:40.145]I'm a woman that use words I don't gotta punch or slap to diss you
