Boylife Lyrics

Young and colored in America
Being young and a person of color in America is a unique experience

Tell me who gon' wanna spell at ya
Who will want to support you and help you grow?

Tell me who gon' call you beautiful
Who will affirm your beauty and value?

If it isn't you yourself, I know
You must learn to love and appreciate yourself first

Got a couple things I need to say
There are important things that need to be expressed

No, you'd never love me as I am
Society may not accept or love me for who I am

America, I wanna bury ya
There are many issues and injustices in America that need to be addressed and overcome

Big smile when I make a mess
I still find joy in the midst of chaos and failure

Big smile when I put my chain on
I find delight in my material possessions and image

Big smile when I lose a friend
Even in pain and loss, I choose to smile

Big smile with the double chin
I'm confident in myself and my appearance, even when not conventionally attractive

I wanna be the best of all time, baby
I strive for excellence and greatness

Still insecure about my height, baby
However, I still have fears and doubts about myself

Oh please, you're fucking up my high, baby
Don't bring me down or disrupt my mood

Whole wide mess, I'm a whole wide mess
I acknowledge that I'm a complicated and chaotic person

Young Gelato, main character
I am the artist in my own story

I'm reliable, narrator
I will accurately tell my own story

I'm about to love you
I'm on the journey to love myself and others

I don't think I hate you
I try to avoid hate and negative emotions

Bitch, I'm a star
I am confident and successful

And I'm super, super pretty
I know I am attractive and valuable

I go crazy in the back
I enjoy parties and social settings

Don't got nothing in the bank, yeah
I may not have much money or material wealth

Buzzcut baby with the boxing gloves
I have a distinct and unconventional appearance

Wanna be like bitch, with a flock of doves
I aspire to have a peaceful and free lifestyle

Got a Marlboro habit that I can't afford
I indulge in harmful habits, even if they have a negative impact on my finances

Got backseat you with the extra Porsche
I have a careless and reckless attitude towards relationships

Got over drafted then I got some more
I may make irresponsible financial decisions

I take your man 'cause I feel like it
I may act impulsively and selfishly in relationships

Gave him back 'cause I feel like it
However, I am still learning and growing

This boylife world's sincerely yours
This is my own personal journey and experience

Young Gelato say a prayer
I seek guidance and support from a higher power

I'm speeding and baby I'm mac 10
I live a fast-paced and exciting lifestyle

I was fucking with it like I'm gonna die young
I often engage in risky behavior and don't always consider the consequences

Pretty
Despite my flaws and challenges, I am still beautiful and worthy
