lyrics

I see how we treat creators
our mothers, our makers
the builders, the breakers
out spirit, our nature

I see how we treat creators
of our music, our language
our culture, our flavor
our soil, our nation

I see how we treat creators
like a slave to their labor
draining them of all their greatness
just to try and imitate it

I see how we treat creators
through the ways that we play favorites
through the doubts within our prayers
through the messes we keep making

I see how we treat our creators
I see how we treat our creators
Can't you see what we've created?
I see how we treat our creators, oh

I see how we treat our creators
the originators, the misbehavers
the agitators our our nation
we're all creators, oh

To all my creators,
Keep going and keep the faith that
We're highly favored
I know they've been ungrateful
but we won't let them break us
no we won't let them break us
We're all creators oh


----------------------------

Picture me on the cover of vogue
Lookin good strike a pose
Wearing all the clothes
Givin all the smoke

Picture me gettin momma that car
making fans outta stars
Ghostwritin for the folks
Alla y all takin notes


Picture me IG you can @ me
Movin up changed the addy
Looking good with a baddie
Got the cake and the fatty

Look at me look at what I’ve established
Look at all I made happen
All y’all niggas saggy
Yeah I’m free and I’m happy

Naaa

Ain’t inna place to make demands
See
I don’t need what you handing
I might switch
to ya language
Let alla y’all understand me
I don’t cater to no one
I don’t care what you fancy

I opened the door up
let you all hear the rehearsal
Let you in on the outtakes,
Seeing me as a person
But I’m in control
You might run the tickets but I run the show
I’m doing it for ya but I’ll let you know
I determine how this shit will go

Cause I does this shit
we ain't next up baby we was this shit
from the 20s to the 20s yea you luh that shit
any moment that I choose I can become this shit
I DOES THIS SHIT
and yall want this shit
hustle and a bustle but you not this
yeah i want it nevermind it so i does this
try to compete but we already done won this shit
we run this shit, yeah
