Double Pedigree歌词

[00:07.300]Picture me rollin' like Michelle Obama

[00:13.300]Self sufficient, independent and strong
[00:16.390]Black and beautiful, a la Nina Simone, come on
[00:20.570]See what they want you to do
[00:22.970]Is believe I'm your competition when you're competin' with you
[00:26.260]True, true, I'm solely focused on me
[00:29.500]Tryna be the best Ingrid that a genius could be
[00:33.050]But geez, it's so hard not to act Third Ward
[00:36.340]In a time when ****** is broads, I'm steady pullin' their cards like
[00:39.870]Since when I'm s'posed to bow to you?
[00:42.350]People only gon' do the **** that you allow them to
[00:45.720]So allow me to command respect, intellect and affection
[00:48.800]Passion in your profession, lack of internet presence
[00:52.230]Come back from 7-Eleven with some fronto and some papers
[00:55.340]And do me a favor, don't do me no favors
[00:58.700]Cause faith ain't fair, so I'm puttin' in work
[01:01.680]Always hungry as hell, but never dyin' of thirst
[01:05.050]They say that I am the first that they really relate to
[01:07.980]And I'm hella flattered, so I just say, "Thank you"
[01:12.080]

[01:44.310]So much decorum intact, Essence should give me a plaque
[01:47.580]The tenacity and business savvy is yet to be matched
[01:50.790]I speak like I know what I'm talkin' about
[01:53.880]I think so I know what I'm speakin' about
[01:57.400]I don't mingle to mingle, I don't be in the crowd
[02:00.590]So when you do see me, understand what Ingrid about
[02:03.930]Style and grace, class and taste
[02:08.090]The beauty that I'm exuding ain't an ass and face
[02:11.270]When you fail to listen, you look past the greats
[02:14.640]So I'm hopin' you payin' attention to the **** I say

[02:37.060]These ****** don't even own a ******' car or crib
