Oh My
Nyota Parker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh
It's N-Y-O-T-A

What the hell is wrong with female rappers?
And all these trappers?
Or overall, the new school gangsters
How is this fashion?
Stop forgetting the foundation
I wish Hip-hop wasn't contaminated
From the greatest to the faded
Making dumb people famous
Innovation to stagnation
Now we never have reformation
Inspiration to just payment
Creation to occupation
Matchless to the mistaken
Or from Lauryn Hill to Bhad Bhabie
Yes, yes I know I'm a millennial, I know you hope I fall
And Stogie T is saying that he's better than us all
Though I don't categorize myself with all of them other guys
How can you be owning thrones that you can't even find, oh my

Oh my, oh my, oh my
Oh my, oh my, oh my
Oh my, oh my

Indoctrination, indoctrination, indoctrination
Messes with my patience, with my patience
Our nation, yes our nation, oh yes our nation
Is failing to shun away all of our frustrations

Indoctrination, indoctrination, indoctrination
Messes with my patience, with my patience
Our nation, yes our nation, oh yes our nation
Is failing to shun away all of our frustrations

Is your perspective blocking my vibrations? (My vibrations)
Don't let your vision block out my vibrations
My vibrations (My vibrations)

Ain't no one you know who roll like this
Ain't no one who make you stop, drop and roll like this
Ain't no one who be changing the gender roles like this
Ain't no one who never aims to conform like this

The system's picking up an error
I'm a virus lurking in the software
Infiltrating programs and all the courseware
Your brainwashing material ain't going nowhere

The authorities breeding all conformity
This is calling me, now no options for ignoring me
Have a cup of tea, sit back relax and stop adoring sheep
Bring it back to the main point, how did you rappers sleep?
During the part I talked about you being the sheep, yes
I can feel them catching all the senties, yoh relax
I just want respect and understanding of this artistry
Not just money hungry youngins who are looking for a treat

So, let's feast together
Just eat together
Femcees, you with us
No beef, just make sure that there's no

Indoctrination, indoctrination, indoctrination
Messing with my patience, with my patience




Our nation, yes our nation, oh yes our nation
Is failing to shun away all of our frustrations
