: ““She Wrote It”
• Written by Icy_Rain
Yeah…
They thought I was gon’ cry about it.
Nah.
I learned how to move with it.
Female POV.
Real ones know.
Hook
They said murder that she wrote it,
I just signed it with my pain.
Cold heart, warm smile, still dancing through the rain.
I done seen love turn snake, seen blood switch lanes,
So I keep one eye open while I’m counting up the change.
Murder that she wrote it,
Ain’t no fear in my tone.
I been fighting demons since I learned to stand alone.
They was praying I would fold, I just turned into stone.
Now the queen walk heavy when she stepping in her zone.
Verse 1
I came from broke nights, roaches in the kitchen,
Mama on survival, daddy somewhere missing.
Love came violent, so I learned not to listen,
Had to read a man’s eyes before I read his intentions.
I was young with a baby, still a baby myself,
Had to swallow all the shame, put my pride on the shelf.
Everybody had opinions, nobody gave help,
So I built a whole crown out the cards I was dealt.
Now they see me in the light, wanna ask how I made it,
I don’t speak on every scar, I just let ’em stay sacred.
I done slept with fear so long, I don’t even shake it,
Had death touch my hand and my soul still faced it.
I ain’t glorifying pain, I’m exposing the cost,
Every woman got a graveyard of things that she lost.
Every smile got a war that it secretly fought,
Every boss had a moment where she almost got caught.
But I rose from the dirt with my name still clean,
Had to mother my kids while I buried my dreams.
Then I dug ’em back up, put ’em all on beats,
Now the trauma got rhythm when I speak my piece.

Verse 2
I don’t bark for attention, I bite when it’s needed,
Been betrayed by the ones I protected and feeded.
Had to cut off the love when the loyalty depleted,
Now I move like a lesson that the streets repeated.
I ain’t never been soft, I was tender with rage,
Pretty face, old soul, locked inside of a cage.
Had to rip my own name off a victim page,
Now I’m author and assassin when I step on stage.
Tell C-Bo this a woman with a war in her chest,
Not a gimmick, not a Barbie, not a industry pet.
I got scripture in my lungs, got the hood on my breath,
Got a prayer in my pocket and my foot on they neck.
I don’t need no permission, I don’t beg for a seat,
I done ate with my hands, now I’m serving the feast.
They confused by the peace ’cause they know I’m a beast,
I can bless you with love or bury you with release.
See, the murder ain’t bodies, it’s the old me dead,
It’s the lies I believed getting left on read.
It’s the fear in my throat that I finally bled,
It’s the crown on my spirit, not the gun to your head.
I’m a mother, a hustler, a healer, a threat,
I remember every name that was placed on my debt.
But I paid that in tears, now I’m coming collect,
With respect on my name and my foot on they neck.
Bridge
This for the women who survived what they don’t speak on.
For the ones who had to be strong too long.
For the ones they counted out, played with, lied on, slept on.
We ain’t asking no more.
We taking up space now.

Yeah.
