Lyrics[]
[Coop:]
What if I told you I was kinda different
And me not loving you for who you are
Wasn't exactly my intention
If I told you I was prolific
Would you believe me or find it in your heart to receive me
If I told I'm this way and I like girls
Could you still look me in my face or would you say some things to make me run away
Would you tell me that I'm sinnin' this ain't gods work
Baby you ain't livin' should I change my ways and try to make you listen
If I turn suicidal and I slit my wrist all on your holy bible
Would you turn your back or would you hold me tighter
If I'm laying in the hearse would you cry because I never wore a skirt
Or you be mad because I didn't tell you first
You don't ask so I don't say nun
You know it's not my style to never say nun
You don't ask so I don't say nun
You know it's not my style to never say nun
Yeah, you know it's not my style (not my style)
Yeah, you know it's not my style (not my style)
[Patience:]
I'm never changing who I am
For anyone or anything
You can stay or you can leave
But this is me, this is me
I'm never changing who I am
For anyone or anything
You can stay or you can leave
But this is me, this is me
[Coop:]
What if I told you I ain't mean it would you believe it
Would if I told that I'm out here battling my demons
There some things that you'll never understand no
Like how most people where I'm from don't understand you
Like how most black boy joy get destroy
That's by the same system you run to for the award
Its little girls without they father ain't got no momma its sons lookin' up to papa
Cause he just want the higher honor
Well hello your honor I know the lines blurred
I'm just a victim to a story
Missin' my words
You don't ask so I don't say nun
You know it's not my style to never say nun
You don't ask so I don't say nun
You know it's not my style to never say nothing
Yeah, you know it's not my style (not my style)
Yeah, you know it's not my style (not my style)
[Patience:]
I'm never changing who I am
For anyone or anything
You can stay or you can leave
But this is me, this is me
I'm never changing who I am
For anyone or anything
You can stay or you can leave
But this is me, this is me
I'm never changing who I am
For anyone or anything
You can stay or you can leave
But this is me, this is me
I'm never changing who I am
For anyone or anything
You can stay or you can leave
But this is me, this is me
