Nail Polish
Mai Lan Lyrics

Legs, bust, arm (Get, get it)
Focus on physical appearance and stay fit

On your knee's bone (Get, get it)
Work hard or put in effort to succeed

Gotta keep the crown (Get, get it)
Maintain a high status and reputation

Bitches goin' down (Get, get it)
Defeat competition or haters

Eat and fail (Get, get it)
Overindulge in food and regret it

Get back on the rails (Get, get it)
Recover from mistakes and stay on track

I'm hearing voices inside
Dealing with inner struggles or doubts

I wish I could show what it's like
Desire to express oneself to others

Try to push me into the fight
Feeling pressured or confronted by others

They tell me, 'Go scratch and bite'
Encouraged to be aggressive or assertive

But I'm just as weak as a snail
Feeling vulnerable or powerless

Need some fresh air to inhale
Desire for a break or relief from stress

Grab the tiger by the tail
Face challenges or obstacles head-on

Never let him go down to hell
Determined to overcome obstacles and succeed

They say, 'You're such a disgrace'
Being criticized or judged harshly by others

Look at your body, your face
Feeling insecure or ashamed of appearance

Remember what mama says
Learning from the advice of a maternal figure

I don't know what mama says!
Ignoring or forgetting advice from a maternal figure

They say, 'I am my own God
Self-reliance or independent thinking

You gotta untangle your nuts!'
Overcoming personal obstacles or challenges

And when it's over then what?
Questioning the point or purpose of a goal

Had something to say but forgot
Frustration over losing a thought or idea

I eat more than I can contain
Overeating or indulging in excess

Belly's growin', not the brain
Prioritizing physical pleasure over mental stimulation

Don't give a shit 'bout sugarcane
Not concerned with healthy eating habits

I eat potatoes and chicken!
Unapologetic about personal food preferences

So in the middle of the night
Random thoughts or observations

I can come and turn on the light
In control of one's own environment

All this food shining so bright
Taking pleasure in one's own cooking or food choices

Look at this cute zucchini pie!
Proud of a particular dish or accomplishment

Can't touch this!
Feeling untouchable or confident

Look at the cookies I made
Highlighting a personal achievement or talent

Blueberries and chocolate
Describing an appealing food combination

You kinda missed the whole game
Feeling like others are not paying attention or appreciative

But are you regretting? Missed, missed the best thing
Questioning or challenging others' priorities

Blue, tasty and delicate
Describing a successful or enjoyable dish

So we could try to fix it again
Suggesting the possibility of improvement or reconciliation

But my baths are too hot, make me wanna throw up!
Expressing displeasure or discomfort with a particular situation

Bitches goin' down
Conveying a sense of power or domination over others

Nail polish
Repeating a phrase for emphasis or effect
