Look Ma No Hands
Talia Stewart Lyrics

Mama, mama look, no hands
I am free and triumphant in my approach, regardless of the obstacles in my way.

They said I'd sink, but I just swim
People doubted my potential for success, but I have proven them wrong by persevering and thriving.

Don't I make the view look nice from the shore
My accomplishments and success are impressive and enviable to those observing from the sidelines.

(Sho-o-ore)
Vocalization to enhance musicality, no specific meaning or message conveyed.

Mama they reprimand
My actions are often criticized or called into question, particularly by those in positions of authority or power.

I do, I don't, I still beat them
I am able to succeed despite opposition or criticism, whether I follow or deviate from established norms.

Imma do it how I do, watch me roll
I will persevere in my own unique way, regardless of others' opinions or expectations.

Talk my talk
I confidently express myself and assert my beliefs, even if they differ from others'

Walk my walk
I back up my talk with action, and lead by example in pursuing my goals.

You got a man, I'm your muse
I am an inspiration or catalyst for growth and change, augmenting or complementing others' existing relationships or pursuits.

Why you talk, why you walk
I question others' motives or intentions when they express negativity or doubt towards me or my goals.

Like you wanna see me lose
Their actions or words suggest that they take pleasure in my potential failure or struggle.

Why I'm gonna love the lies
I have a tendency to disregard negative opinions or inaccurate information spread about me.

Don't have shit to do with you
Critics or doubters have no stake or relevance in my personal goals or aspirations.

Play yourself
They are foolish to engage in negative behavior or speech towards me, and will ultimately suffer the consequences of their own actions.

Go on shoot your shot
They are welcome to try and bring me down, but they will not be successful.

Moment you can't wait 'til you stop hoping that I lose
The critic has an unhealthy obsession with my failure or struggle, and cannot wait to see me fall.

Knock, knock, knock, I'm coming in
I am confident and unafraid to assert myself and pursue my goals, entering into situations with boldness and poise.

Make sure to hold the door for a sis
I expect to be treated with respect and courtesy, and will not tolerate any belittlement or dismissal of my worth or potential.

Don't touch a hair
I will not tolerate any infringement upon my autonomy or self-determination.

Don't tie my wrists
I will not allow others to hold me back or limit my potential, whether through social norms or restrictive expectations.

These bloody shoes were made to kick
I possess the strength and determination to overcome any obstacle, and will use any means necessary to achieve my goals.

'Cause I'm a monster
I am an unstoppable force to be reckoned with, possessing great strength, resilience, and tenacity.

I'm the man
I possess qualities traditionally associated with masculinity, including dominance, confidence, and decisiveness.

I'm the one who's in the ring
I am an active participant and contender in the competition of life, fighting to achieve my goals and overcome my opponents.

Don't be gettin' so close
Others should not get too comfortable or familiar with me, as I am still a powerful player and will not tolerate disrespect or disregard.

I'm gonna live or die tryin'
I am committed to achieving my goals, even if it comes at a great risk or cost to myself.

Don't play me, that was it
I am not willing to accept anyone's disrespect or dishonesty towards me, and will cut them off without hesitation or regret.

No I do my own thing
I am unapologetically myself, pursuing my unique goals and aspirations in a way that feels authentic and fulfilling to me.

Call me queen, but know that I'm the king
I possess qualities attributed to both femininity and masculinity, and will not be limited by gendered expectations or labels.
