Me

Everything around you see

The ankhs, the wraps, the plus degrees

And, yes, even the mysteries

It's all me

Sometimes it's hard to move, you see

When you're growing publicly

But if I have to choose between

I choose me

Had two babies, different dudes

And for them both my love was true

This is my last interview

Hey, that's me

This year, I turn thirty-six

Damn, it seem it came so quick

My ass and legs have gotten thick, yeah

It's all me

I used to pray to God above

But now I'm filled with so much love

That even if the world can't see

It's still me

Will I escape this vanity?

Or will I keep on smoking trees?

But I'll just let it go and be

Be, be me

I'll leave it alone, babe

Well, well, well

I'll, I'll leave it alone, babe

Just be me

I'll leave it alone, babe

Well, well, well

I'll, I'll leave it alone, babe

Just be me

Sometimes I don't know what to say

So many leaders to obey

But I was born on Savior's day, yeah

So I choose me

And in this world of greed and hate

They may try to erase my face

But millions spring up in my place, oh

Believe me

As sure as all and all is one

We all shall grow before it's done

So I salute you Farrakhan, yes

'Cause you are me

Before I end this crazy dream

Before I take one for the team

Your ass, the match, the gasoline, yeah

That's Kolleen

That's Kolleen

Kolleen Gibson Wright was a girl from South Dallas, Texas

Married William, gave birth to Erykah

Then Koryan under Erykah

And then she finally delivered Eevin Wood

Kolleen's friends called her Twiggy

'Cause she looked like the model

With those eyes

She was witty and beautiful

People drawn to her smile

Lovely, young and fresh

I could not think of another soul

That I'd rather be like or admire

Kolleen is tighter, smarter, quicker

Than the average bear

Even though

Even though it was hard

You would never ever know it
