Im bout that H, town coming coming down
Im coming down, drippin candy on the ground
H, Town, Town, Im coming down, coming down
Drippin candy on the ground

Bow down bitches, bow bow down bitches (Crown)
Bow down bitches, bow bow down bitches (Crown)

Im about that H, town, coming coming down
Im coming down, drippin candy on the ground
H, Town, Town, Im coming down, coming down
Drippin candy on the ground
We teach girls to shrink themselves
To make themselves smaller
We say to girls
"You can have ambition
But not too much
You should aim to be successful
But not too successful
Otherwise you will threaten the man"
Because I am female
I am expected to aspire to marriage
I am expected to make my life choices
Always keeping in mind that
Marriage is the most important
Now marriage can be a source of
Joy and love and mutual support
But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage
And we dont teach boys the same?
We raise girls to each other as competitors
Not for jobs or for accomplishments
Which I think can be a good thing
But for the attention of men
We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings
In the way that boys are
Feminist: the person who believes in the social
Political, and economic equality of the sexes

Flossin on that, flawless
