lirik lagu nikki mcknight - recording in the dark

inspiration to write been getting harder to find
have i reached my last page in this book of rhymes
for god’s sake, i’m tired of reliving the heartbreaks
tired of talking bout how these n~ggas are all fake
online all the rappers doing goofy sh~t for views
tryna go viral off of everything but the music
leaving me more confused than amused
is this what securing fans has really come to
men dissing women been a thing, and
being disloyal, switching up on their team and
all of the codes got thrown out all of the doors
losing a little more patience than i could afford
don’t wanna be the old head complaining bout things changing
if i can’t learn to adapt, i’ll prefer to step back
cuz i see where things are going as we move forward
and i just can’t afford what’ll cost me my morals

just rhyming in the dark
reading through lines i was scribing from the heart
random things i jot down when i am in my thoughts
this ain’t even a chorus
i’m just filling up these lines til the next verse

i feel like since i learned my niece would be born, my mind was reborn
started opening up my eyes wider, i could see more
like just how f~cked up we are in this world
and they still trying to make it harder
for all our lil black boys and girls
born from centuries of disadvantages
and these crackers gon make d~mn sure we never catching em
how i’m supposed to have pride in a country that don’t love me
that hates my dark skin, my partner preference
and the fact that i’m a woman
every june i gotta choose what i wanna celebrate
is it my pride in being free or my pride of being gay
let’s get this straight, i’m proud of both every single d~mn day
but i’ve faced more discrimination because of my black face
cuz most of em don’t care if they offend a n~gga
but’ll jump through hoops and over hurdles
to make sure that i don’t feel a
way about being gay, and that’s the real agenda
try and make us pick a side, so they conquer when we divide
and i’m tired. there’s too much on my mind
i just want a’zariah to live a life that ain’t as complex as mine
dear god, i’m so tired. too much on my mind
i pray to you that my niece’s life is easier than mine
