Indigo

I am better than you think unless know me well;
I’ve been caught up telling lonely tales like he won’t prevail;
Underhanded figures understand that they can over sale;
I would be so afraid to fall if I could only fail;
Every L is just a new angle;
Crossing over all these bridges they got bruised ankles;
I’m too able, they too playful too big for they britches, I’m too stable;
Got me hoarse, tryna speak over the fools fables;
Never boxed in, staying locked in, Sarah McLachlan;
I’m an angel when Im letting God in, but all the pain will not end;
Look at all the strained that I’ve penned, like a Pinterest;
Ducking words from the temptress, in her mouth like a dentist;
I need grace, are you braced for the stakes of the chase?;
Can you look in the face of distaste?;
Will you place all your faith in this place?;
Just give me space now;
If you wondering why I can fly, I’m indigo;
And if you get left behind then, that’s the way it go;
If you wondering why I can fly, I’m indigo;
And if you get left behind, you get left behind;
I grew up, only color on the whole canvas;
Now I’m feeling like the greatest on this whole campus;
I always question why run they mouth, with no answers;
Deaf to what they talking about see I am taking no chances;
Life is a blackboard;
Tryna make a mark, alley-oop off the backboard;
Ain’t no time for layups cause I gotta be that sure;
These points count, till the horns sound, if they hating point em out to the
black boy;
Reminds me of a younger me, sagging my dungarees;
Rocking a durag hiding what’s bugging me that was my summary, who are you to
test?;
Plotting on moving to Budapest I’m so hungry;
Sweeter than Sunny D, live from the beast that couldn’t stomach me;
Couple heads on the mantle;
You gon say what I can’t do?;
I’m outta pocket a scramble?
Thats a pair of lies I can’t move;
I think it’s too much to handle;
I think too much it’s a scandal;
Thats why they Childish as Lando;
I think is all in the plan though;
If you wondering why I can fly, I’m indigo;
And if you get left behind then, that’s the way it go;
If you wondering why I can fly, I’m indigo;
And if you get left behind, you get left behind;
