OCTAVIA

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't ever let a textbook scare you You the missing piece, OG technology, they stole you Don't ever let 'em knock the way you talk The language you evolve your natural genius Merch it [Pre-Chorus] Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh [Chorus] I'm the truth, I am a fact They lie on me, I have to laugh I write it down, it happens next So be it, see to it (Their science is a-lyin' on me and you That don't make it true) I'm the truth, I am a fact They lie on me, I have to laugh I write it down, it happens next So be it, see to it (Their science is a-lyin' on me and you That don't make it true) [Post-Chorus] (Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) [Verse 2] It used to be the worst crime to write a line Our great great greats risked their lives, learned letters fireside Like a seat on a bus, like a heel in a march Like we holdin' a torch, it's our inheritance They tease our pronunciations then try to mimic our greatness We are a precious creation, our black has no imitation [Pre-Chorus] Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh [Chorus] I'm the truth, I am a fact They lie on me, I have to laugh I write it down, it happens next So be it, see to it (Their science is a-lyin' on me and you That don't make it true) I'm the truth, I am a fact They lie on me, I have to laugh I write it down, it happens next So be it, see to it (Their science is a-lyin' on me and you That don't make it true)
