Love Me Nina; Semiautomatic

[Intro: Nina Simone]
And to me, we have a culture that, uh, is surpassed by, by, by, by no other civilization, but we don't know anything about it.
So again, I think I've said this before in this same interview
I think, my, my job is to somehow make them curious enough
Or persuade them by hook or crook
To get more aware of themselves and where they came from
And what they are into and what is already there
And just to bring it out
This is what compels me to compel them
And I will do it by whatever means necessary.

[Verse 1:]
Detroit red flow
East coast West coast
Use to leave moco
To HIT LEDROIT with Bo
I dated women with poppin’ albums
They got spouses
Dated strippers that trap loud inside there challengers
To be black and talented
All I’ve ever been
Took a tour de France while my partners
Was somewhere peddling
We make depression look so effortless
We desensitize while America tryna kill our kids.

[Refrain 1:]
So Its weighing on me nina
Its weighing on me nina
They playing with me nina
Send em on they’re way to meet ya.

[Verse 2:]
Look at my SKIN look at my nose
Im grateful for my features
Like I made a CD with Mrs. Knowles
And AIN’T pay a G
Im on my way to GA
Magazine in the BM
Imagine the nazis see me
A maga hat he CAN BLEED IN
Nina, we just wanna be black and legendary
Be us and be proud by any means necessary.

[Bridge:]
Nina Got me feeling like I never have to walk alone
Nina Got me feeling like I never have to walk alone.

[Refrain 2:]
They playing with me nina
You stayin’ with me nina
They hating on me nina
Send em on they way to meet ya
I misunderstood
Under your spell perhaps
Ain’t no lookin back
Young gifted black.

[Verse 3:]
A Semi automatic, a scatterbrain I’m shooting out of aim
Since I’ve been famous its hard for me to hit up a target
Im sorry, I was humble on all them red carpets
I got embarrassed Grammy’s carried me for Sandra bullock
Photo ops the paparazzi was OPTING out of
Was doing drops for jockeys that ain’t bother my album
TellIN ME you honestly the best nigga
Though I believe that you one welling ass nigga
How many niggas with jobs feel like they under paid
Lets say its that plus you rhyme and boutta have a baby
Lets say they calling you bipolar
Not feeling you, you’re rhymes legend
But personality complicated
Shoot at whoever that’s your only defense
Had a job you was poppin’ now you lonely as shit
Mental blocks every shot was harder than before
Like boot leg shopPERS see I was rockin’ my label wrong
I digress cuz this isn’t that song
This just my plight I am no different then y'all
Speak to your boss, me
I speak in these songs
I speak how I feel
I feel like a gun
A Semi Auto with a novice aim
A lot of thought and A lot of pain
My ammunition come from all your hate
My brain a loaded semi
Im too offended to concentrate.

[Outro:]
Everybody gets sprayed nigga
Ay mo get out the way nigga
Under the surface we that same nigga
But my aim different
I’m way to brilliant to shank niggas
Everybody gets sprayed nigga
Move get out the way nigga
Under the surface we that same nigga
I got that loaded semi that stain cement and painted pictures.
