M.I.A

I tell a story of someone I used to know When I got to see her, She always on the move Always evolving, I don’t know her no more But I won’t leave you in the dark, her presence left a mark A 5’4, hybrid, always working on her own If you try to help out (No thanks, I’m good) If you try to lay her down (No thanks, I’m good) 
She defines independent No use pretending it She a straight tease Even though she love hard There was nothing you could tell her to get her To settle down, pipe down, get down, slow down None of that Her mind was secured on the bag (And she loved that) Some might call her conceited but I disagree Yeah, I disagree Inner peace was the goal just living free Innocent intentions rooted in affirmations Derived from desires of her manifestations So when she alone she repeat I flow through life low problems I grow through life lotta dollas So M.I.A Today Im going M.I.A To be free to be me only thing I aim to be Climb a tree feel the breeze maybe later smoke a blunt Only goal today is to simply exist Not trynna be this Artist or that friend Not trynna be this lover or that kin (Just me) When it come to my thoughts I enact separation They advise how to move but they not the vocation Cause if I was what they were I’d drift locations But I sit right here like a bus station If its outta my hands then its outta my control Got no other motive but to let it go I can ease the day and still wake up tomorrow So when im alone I repeat I flow through life low problems I grow through life lotta dollas So M.I.A Today Im going M.I.A Learned all my lessons Treated my scars Lost all my demons Think its time I go home Cause I’m ready (Yes I’m ready) Only running cause I don’t wanna die yet Everybody talking at me with they loud words But no one understanding how this world works Telepathic signs got me watching something different Telepathic signs got me dreaming something different I can feel it in my gut yet for me that’s not enough I crave affection To be vulnerable To be expressive In my own home I can see it now Body to body no invaded space Who turned off survival mode? (Both you and I) I am safe while I lay, so I stay here (Peace) My true self thrives here Naturally, I repeat I flow through life low problems I grow through life lotta dollas So M.I.A Today I’m going M.I.A
