I beat a gypsy flipping life game
Rolling through like a burning flame
She be the light when they in the dark
for constellations start forming
but everybody wanna ask me why
if they can't understand you?
they'll shoot by do, by do
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talkin' that shit Badoo,
Santa, I ain't see sicko there, got that
Well, well, I'm raisin' hell
I'm the envy of the women
Two fish, one swimmin' upstream
One swimmin' down livin' in a dream
But when she loves, she tends to cling
When incense burns, smoke unfurls
Analog girl in the digital world
The Rasta style, flower child
So dip, dip, dial, zip, dip, dial
The go -to smile, split them vows
Bing, boom, ping, melanated
Bout to give birth to church
But everybody wanna ask this earth
What good do your words do
If they can't understand you
Don't go talkin' that shit, badu, badu
What good do your words do
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talkin' that shit, badu, badu
with momma to the washatory
the day I first started my period
one day I learned I was inferior
Holla if you hear me though
if you don't let it be the fear in you
Wrap your head with this material
Cause you didn't have to do
My life, keeps moving like a rolling
Mad swipes to the god job on
Things just ain't the same for singers
But that's all I have, ain't got no more
But still the people really wanna know
What good do your words do
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talking that shit
What good do your words do
if they can't understand you?
Don't go talking that shit
