Autobiography lyrics by nicki minaj
•
May the Lord protect me as the world gets hectic
My voice projected my life reflected
May the Lord protect me as the world gets hectic.
My voice projected, my life reflected.
[Verse 1:]
Daddy was a crack fiend.
Two in the morning had us runnin' down the block like a track team.
When he burned the house down and my mother was in it, how could inom forqet it, the pain was infinite.
She's my queen and I ain't even British.
She's the only reason that inom went to school and I finished. (yeah)
She told me that inom had talent, got on her knees and prayed for me when inom started being violent.
She saw something in me that, til this day I don't know if I could be that. But I'ma die trying.
And when I'm done crying, grab the iron , and black out like I'm retiring.
Nightmares of yu killing my mother, the reason that I sova with my head beneath the covers.
And they shoulda thrown the book at you, cause inom hate you so much that it burn when I look at you.
[Chorus: x2]
