(This is not a love song..but its straight from the heart)

Verse 1
I wanna talk about the stress wanna get of my chest /
take my time and re-invest/
asking is it worth it?? All the sleepless nights/
the fights and the crisis , the critics biting/
Mama told me there'd be days like this/
put your pen to paper never use your fist/
imagine how I came through my fears rhyming/
started my career , blew it up with the trybesmen/
a lot of people had their own opinions/
took it in my stride and stuck to my onions/
they think they know who she would be, should be/
numbed by the pressure but i really wanna be me/
inspiration gone..direction gone...
packing my bags i must be .must be done/
but my heart keeps drawing me back you can do it baby one more track!

Chorus (2ce)
Hey (hey}
keep your head up don't you cry {CRY}
You can make it if you try..SA RA GIRI OMO EKUN..ADARA ADARA

Verse 2
Wey the hits? wey the album?/
have to measure up to the standards of the stardom/
cant explain three years running and only one single /
confessing to the audience only one video?/
but you hear me though...E mi ni mo wa ise/
won de make sure pe ..e mi ni mo ri ise/
Emcess coming out gotta top the charts/
i'm losing it losing it .pulling all the stops/
maybe a party song?No thats regular/
do a whole song and spit it vernacular?/
I'm going crazy right now so i put my pen down/
dont be mad if you see me walking round with a frown/
i'm just tired of this, performing at shows and dont get paid/
gotta make friends ,so dont dare say it ../
wasn't for the money though, i can't leave it/
trying to convince myself gotta believe it!/

Chorus (twice)

Verse 3
i'm speaking out for a lot of us women/
When the skills dont bring the ends then we give in?/
gotta look back at mistakes that we made/
deep down you possess the tricks of the trade/
they can't tell us that we can't be the best/
put the work in it let God do the rest/
it's in our own minds that we stay limited/
see it through the eyes of a child that's still innocent/

Bridge
Why tell me why/
i just cant seem to decide/
Everytime i walk away something's killing me inside/
I wanna go..but I can't let go/
How do I get through this ..I don't know/

Chorus till fade
