[Hook: M.I Abaga]
Other girls called you average
Other girls called you average
Amd said you can never be no bad bitch
You can never be no bad bitch
Other girls called you average
Other girls called you average
And said you can never be no bad bitch
You can never be no bad bitch
Now look at you hair done
Body rocking, you looking fly Mary Poppins
All the boys looking at you, you're the target
All the girls talking bout you, you're the topic
Hair done, body rocking, you looking fly
Mary Poppins
All the boys looking at you, you're the target
All the girls talking bout you, you're the topic
[Verse 1: M.I Abaga]
Don't stop, never second guess yourself
Turn around and bless yourself
Girl you looking good than a model
Did you dress yourself
Girl you fucking awesome, have you met yourself?
Take yourself to dinner then caress yourself
Be your own precipitation you can wet yourself
Sexy mother, well have you met yourself?
You just so amazing when you left yourself
No one can ever make you reject yourself
Only you b, you shouldn't stress yourself
It's really important you protect yourself
Sometimes you over dissect yourself... stop!
Think about it
Who the baddest bitch who been about it?
Hmm, take another guess
Stop! Never second guess yourself
[Hook: M.I Abaga]
And now all them other girls look tragic
All them other girls look tragic
Remember when they called you average
Said you'd never be no bad bitch
Ain't it funny? Look at you honey
Making money; you made it mami
All them other girls look tragic
[Verse 2: M.I Abaga]
Checking the mirror like yo is this really me?
Looking this good should be a felony
Always looking drop to fresh be killing b
Honey dripping off that sexy melanin
Yo why they always tryna steal your energy
Love yourself baby that's the remedy
Self over haters that's the recipe
Self over haters that's the recipe
[Verse 3: Cina Soul]
Said you don't need them
Don't need them don't need them
To validate yourself
'lidate yourself
Said you don't need them
Don't need them don't need them
To validate yourself
Embrace yourself
You don't need them to validate yourself
Embrace yourself oh ohhh
[Interlude/Outro: Caryn Solomon & M.I Abaga]
If you had to give voice to the not trusting
What would you be saying?
Hmm, you know you're afraid of
Ending up with the wrong person or being hurt
It's one of those
So you might hurt me? Yeah
Can I trust that you won't hurt me? Is that the
Yes, okay, and hurt me by leaving me?
Hurt me by taking from me?
Or hurt me by cheating on me?
Hurt me by cheating on me and leaving me
Abandoning me, cause somewhere in your life
You've experienced abandonment
That's what's been triggered here
It's... if it's turmoil it's not just about now
It's about then. So it's...
And you may not even remember it
But somewhere you've been left alone
In a moment which has left you feeling very vulnerable
