Be Myself
070 Shake Lyrics

Ain't like she said she wanted foreplay
She didn't ask for anything specific, but that doesn't mean she's not dissatisfied with the status quo.

She don't let her be her fuckin' self
She feels restrained and unable to express her true self.

Xannied out and I just popped a molly
She's using drugs to escape her situation or to enhance her experience.

Doctor say he worried 'bout my health
Her drug use is concerning to others and may be damaging her health.

Ask me who I love I say myself
Her sense of self-love and self-worth is strong.

I just wanna be my fuckin' self
She wants to be true to herself and not be held back by expectations or outside influences.

Talk about rap niggas, talk about trap niggas
She's aware of the rap and trap scenes and knows she's different from what's expected of her.

Know I'm the bitch but they sit on my lap niggas
She's being objectified and underestimated, but she holds power over these men regardless.

I never cared even if they had figures
She's not motivated by money or material things.

Walk in the crib with a dime and a Hilfiger
She's confident and stylish, and she's not afraid to show it off.

Please just mind your business and don't worry 'bout my health
She wants others to respect her privacy and not judge her lifestyle choices.

Stood up on and work it out
Despite setbacks or challenges, she keeps moving forward and perseveres.

We do not go with the flow, we create
She's not content to follow trends or conform to expectations - she wants to set her own path.

Bein' myself while you fake to get paid
She's true to herself, while others are willing to compromise their integrity for financial gain.

Damn that sucks, they slaved us up
She's acknowledging the systemic oppression and exploitation that many people face.

They watch us die, while they preach Pablo
She's critiquing the hypocrisy of those in power who claim to advocate for change, but do little to help those suffering.

We'll beat the system, we'll fuck it up
Despite the odds, she's confident in her ability to overthrow oppressive systems and create something better.

One more thing, fuck Donald Trump
She's voicing her opposition to the current political climate and leadership.

E and J drippin' on my phone screen
She's being contacted by someone, possibly after drinking E&J brandy.

They see my flu's cold so they bring scene
Others recognize her cool, detached demeanor and are drawn to it.

My niggas see I'm loose so they bring trees
Her friends know she's relaxed and carefree, so they bring weed to enhance the vibe.

We do illegal things so don't bring these
She acknowledges that her lifestyle may be frowned upon or even illegal.

Let me be myself
She wants the freedom to be who she truly is.

Will not get away
She won't let anything hold her back or stop her from achieving her goals.

Free me from the fakes
She wants to distance herself from people who aren't true to themselves or who put on a front.

Leave me by myself
She's comfortable being alone and values her independence.

Niggas tryna join, boy you gotta stop
She's not interested in accepting anyone into her inner circle who isn't genuine or trustworthy.

Treat her like a bus, now you gotta hop
She's saying that if you miss your chance with her, you'll have to work to get it back.

Blowin' them trees, we need them cuffs, gotta stay clean
She acknowledges the risks of drug use and wants to avoid getting caught.

Myself, myself, baby, myself
She's reinforcing the idea of being true to oneself.

You niggas gon' fold, we trip, hey
She's confident in her abilities and knows that others will fall while she stays strong.

Call us the Beatles, the hippy life
She's associating herself and her friends with the counter-culture and free spirit of the 1960s band The Beatles.

Uptown, uptown, uptown where I stay
She's proud of where she's from and identifies with a specific location.

Oh I feel the drip right now, ooh
She's experiencing a sensation or high from drugs or alcohol.

I think I should sip right now, ooh
She's considering having a drink or taking another drug.

They just wanna change me
Others may try to alter her personality or behavior for their own benefit.

I'm still gettin' lit right now, yeah
She's still enjoying her current state, even if others don't get it.

I just wanna be my fuckin' self, yeah
She reasserts her desire to be true to herself and not conform to others' expectations.
