@freethevision4684
Janet is going off!! She's killing this shit! And the first verse she's talking big and much deserved shit!!
Verse 1:
I ain't never gone go nowhere
Quit actin brand new, you know I've been right here
Lately I've been gone on a mission yea
But that don't mean I forgot how to move it yea
In other words, don't try me. I'm Janet fucking Jackson. Don't act like you forgot. I had to handle some business, and if you forgot my name just give me a hot ass beat and watch me burn it up. I'm not new to this, I'm true to this.
