My Hero
Huh Absent father, crackhead mama Traditional recipe for a childhood trauma Right into this world, so racist, so sexist But no room for respite when you just want breakfast Sold into foster care, Third Ward, Texas For the sake of this rhyme, let's just name her Alexis But the story has many names, faced on many frames Everything was bad, but got worse when her titties came Shitty way to say it, but that's how they saw it The predators and pedophiles that watch from the closet They pose as her best friend, her boyfriend, her brother Her doctor, her lawyer, her pastor, her lover She learned to trust no one other than herself For survival, she sacrificed her mental health Revealing clothing, her body on a shelf She put it all out there except for how she felt Her depression was hitting, expression forbidden 'Cause men take advantage of vulnerable women And she wasn't stupid, she used what she had To get what she needed and secure that bag As the bag got bigger, she had mad niggas Tryna punk her and rob her, they plottin' to get her So she had to find someone who could represent her The best choice at the time far from a winner Letras de cancionesA tennis shoe pimp with scars on his face He scared a lot of niggas so he was hard to replace Sell sex in the US and no one protects you So pimps and the pushas is who you connect to Women, they judge you, they hate you, reject you The oldest profession, yet no one respects you So you deserve to be held captive Trapped in the basement with a sadistic bastard Half of you desperate, the other half scared You don't ask for help, you think no one will care They'll look at you, say that you chose to be there Like you chose to get raped 'cause the clothes that you wear In the house where there's guns and there's dope everywhere Why not use these tools to snatch hope from despair? She tied around her neck, made a cape out a sheet Became a superhero when she shot him in his sleep The truest defender of justice and peace A smile on her face as she flew through the streets Through the streets Flew through the streets Through the streets Those streets From Letras Mania
