Lyrics

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Don't you dare
Speak on
my reality
Our realities are not the same
Didn't ask you to explain myself to me
So don't you ever
Speak on
my reality
Our realities are not the same

It's a different type of 3D here
Don't you ask to see what you fear
You don't know what you refuse to see
So don't you dare speak on me
You don't know me

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Da, da, da, da, ohhh
da, doo, da, da, da

I heard Oluwatoyin’s story
Saw myself within her eyes
They can never take away her glory
Like they stole away her life

Some elders tell me to break free right now
Some elders tell me to silence my cries
Some people tell me I'm doing too much
But they don't like it when truth be too loud

Why must I ask you for basic humanity
Isn't that a basic human thing
Who is the real animal in all of this
Your reality has us all in chains

So don't you ever
Speak on
My reality
Our realities are not the same

It's a different type of 3D here
Don't you ask to see what you fear
You don't know what you refuse to see
So don't you ever speak on me (speak on me)
You don't know me (you don't know me)

Oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, ohhh

Oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, ohhh

You don't know me
You don't own me
You don't own me

I am everything you were taught to hate
I am everything you ache to be and hate to love
I am something that makes your heart sink
to thoughts you would never even dream of
I am something you consume
While you mute out all my pain
I am something you can not understand
So you confiscate my name

Oluwatoyin
God is worthy to be praised,
Praise her
Dominique
Of the Lord she is,
Praise her
Ahmad
The most praised,
Praise him
Praise them, praise them, praise them
