I'll Be Damned

(album: Center Of Expression - 2016)

(I'll be damned)
If you think a bitch won't make it, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
Girl, I think that you mistaken, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
If they doubt I fucking waited, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
Cause I'm hearing what you're saying

Cause you say I'd never do it
But I does it
Told me I would hate the fame and fortune
But I doesn't
Told me girl, you'll never ever make it
But I love it
Told me if I do it, it'd be luck
And yo, it wasn't

Sometimes I think about when all this shit just wasn't what it seems
Success was just a word up on the white board of my dreams
And now I'm plotting dots to cities that I've never seen
I'm doing shows in places that I thought I'd never be, so

(I'll be damned)
If you think a bitch won't make it, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
Girl, I think that you mistaken, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
If they doubt I fucking waited, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
Cause I'm hearing what you're saying

"Well, I don't know, Lauren
Like, what if this shit doesn't work out?
Don't you want a Plan B?
Or, I don't know, what about college?
What if you don't make it?"

They told me nothin'd ever change
(But were they serious?)
Every time I feel some typa way
(Girl, you're delirious)
I know my dreams may seem insane
(But I believe in it)
But I believe in it
Bitch, I believe in it

(I'll be damned)
If you think a bitch won't make it, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
Girl, I think that you mistaken, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
If they doubt I fucking waited, uh, uh
(I'll be damned)
Cause I'm hearing what you're saying
