Knickers - Jidenna

Bought a new pair of pants, my knickers

Papa got a brand new dance, my knickers

Wanna cuff, wanna hem my knickers

In the school they be tryna suspend my knickers

Their whole style, it depends on knickers

Y’all wanna talk, wanna dance like knickers

Fuck a mule, I want the land, my nigga

Villa lookin' like the south side of France, my nigga

Show up, I show up

All my niggas show up

It’s showtime, nigga, show up

Showbiz come to the nigga showin' up

Now we made it

All my niggas been through

Now we made it

I know it’s hard for you

To celebrate it

But I just gotta live my lie

I just gotta live my lie

'Til I

Put my knickers on

Put my knickers on

Put my knickers on

Put my knickers on

But I just gotta live my lie

Yeah I just gotta live my lie

I think they wanna end my knickers

Discontinue the trend, my knickers

Tryna bleach, tryna blend my knickers

Need to slow clap and command, my knickers

They don’t even understand my knickers

Back in the day they used to brand my knickers

And now they wanna ban my niggas

Even though they got a Grammy in their hand, my niggas

Show up, I show up

All my niggas show up

It’s showtime, nigga, show up

Showbiz come to the nigga showin' up

Now we made it

All my niggas been through

Now we made it

I know it’s hard for you

To celebrate it

But I just gotta live my lie

I just gotta live my lie

'Til I

Put my knickers on

Put my knickers on

Put my knickers on

Put my knickers on

But I just gotta live my lie

Yeah I just gotta live my lie

My nigga

I said woo, this is that sound, my nigga

Burn it down, build a new town, my nigga

Said woo, lost and found, my nigga

Don’t sink when they try to drown, my nigga

Oh man, never let me down, my nigga

Never let them ever break you down, my nigga

Bodies in the alleyway

Now police would like a nigga they could put away

They lookin', they lookin', now I got to lay low

They lookin', they lookin', now I got to lay low

So we been lookin' like the Phantom of the Opera

When we drive by, shoulda recognized the reminder

Chiefin', chiefin', nigga, delegate a bigger nigga

Trigger finger make a nigga fly like Wonka

Oh lord now they at it again

Oh lord, black magic again

Now we made it

All my niggas been through

Now we made it

I know it’s hard for you

To celebrate it

But I just gotta live my lie

I just gotta live my lie

'Til I

Put my knickers on

I said lady

We really couldn’t do without you

Ooh, my baby

Put my knickers on

I said lady

Put my knickers on

But I just gotta live my lie

Yeah I just gotta live my lie
