Unapologetically by Mayyadda

verse:
I'm not explaining myself too much any more
the tears I cry ain't up for discussion
the threads that I see connecting all things
are magic and golden and I'll stand here and hold em
tired of folk looking at me not seeing
shiny and pretty is shitty not glowing
this firework is also fireside
and if you know it, you know it

Chorus:
I’ll
Stand here and be
Be all of me
Unapologetically
This light that you see
Will keep on shining
Unapologetically
Unapologetically (keep on shining)
Unapologetically (even while I’m crying)
Unapologetically (til I’m dying)
Unapologetically

verse:
this here moonchild gives that good sunlight it’s
dazzling and burning and warming and illuminating and invigorating and
I ain’t afraid of what makes home in the shadows
and I don’t believe in letting those sleeping dogs lie
cuz I’m
tired of the lying, tired of biting my tongue
tired of fighting
in all of the battles that need to be won
but I still know who I am, daughter of water and land
held in the ancestors’ hands,
fully enough as I am
