Glow Up - Oshun

Watchu know bout this life that I’m mothafuckin livin'

Spirit stay high so I get it how I live it

Start me day up with a prayer and some lemon

Poured in the cup of the water that I’m sipping

Then I bake up &check my agenda

Back to the grind cause my name you’ll remember

Today I got time for my own destination

Gimme 2 years swear that life will be vacation

And every black kid that can rap on a track got verse bout the gula they gon

stack and theN put in mama’s purse

But I’m thinking much greater

Finna teach my moms to fly

Take her to a place where her soul will align

With the divine

Ancestral line

That’s hers and mine

All in due time

Peep the incline

We on the rise

Touching the sky

I plant my seeds and water them so they grow

I shine my light so I can reap what I sow

So when you see me stacking paper in dough

You’ll recognize that this here grind’s not for show

The life that I’m living

Is the mothafucking right that I’m giving

See, I’m in tune w rags and the riches

Cause I been here since before the beginning

Swimming in water that only exists

On levels higher than wickedness

Floated the focus from heating the brick

By floating in lotus and healing the sick

Totemed my mind above abyss

An eternal blissfulness

I’m forever feeling the kisses

Of my ancestral spirits

So I don’t feel no stress

I just I ride with it

I just take my time w it

I’m just so divine

I plant my seeds and water them so they grow

I shine my light so I can reap what I sow

So when you see me stacking paper in dough

You’ll recognize that this here grind’s not for show

So let me bring it back (back, back)

So let me bring it back (back, back)

Now lemme bring it back to divulge you some more

About why I do this &who I do it for

All the little shawties coloring on the floor

Expressing who they really truly are at the core

And now we at war with ourselves and the pressure

Losing touch w our ancestors

Thinking that our value only living in the dresser

And the versions of our feelings must censored

See I was that girl one time in my life

But now I got it back and I made the shit right

Overstand that my hands were created to heal

So watch as I whip and I chef every meal

The deals

Coming at major velocity

I am protected, orisa be watching me

I can’t be touched by the hate or hypocrisy

Glow up is coming with heat and ferocity

I plant my seeds and water them so they grow

I shine my light so I can reap what I sow

So when you see me stacking paper in dough

You’ll recognize that this here grind’s not for show
