Female rapper quotes

The grace as I ease across the stage

Bars around the audience, sort of like a cage

They laugh, 'cause they assume I'm in prison

But in reality, they're locked in

Others write your rhymes while I write my own

I don't create a character when I'm on the microphone

I am myself, no games to be played

No script to be written, no scene to be made

My emancipation don't fit your equation

It's funny how money change a situation

Miscommunication lead to complication

My emancipation don't fit your equation

Hero worship can be an excuse for not taking care of your own sh#t.

Don't be flirtin' with your gift, you better marry it—you nervous?

I love myself, I no longer need Cupid

Boys on the block told boys on the spot

You gotta a shot youngin’, you ain't gotta get shot

Dangerous to measure a man by the size of his cock

I was told to measure a King by the size of his flock

I'm Jay-Z on a bad day, Shakespeare on my worst days

One day, I'm wordless, next day, I'm a wordsmith

Close to success, but to happiness, I'm the furthest

Never givin' credit where it's due 'cause you don't like pussy in power

Africa's never dead, Africa's always dying

'Cause when we walk into heaven, nobody's name gon' exist

My pussy wrote a thesis on colonialism

In conversation with a marginal system in love with Jesus

And y'all still thought a bitch couldn't rap huh?

I used to have a name that look like butterflies and Hennessey

I'd trade it up for happiness but joyful don't remember me

How you gon' suck yo' man dick with my name in yo' mouth? (Woo, woo, woo, woo)

They don't make statues of critics, they don't make statues of fans

I'm not no poli-ma-tician, I can't be shakin' them hands

They don’t make statues of the critics. Judgment and critique are not more important than art.

Face card pretty, you know God don't like ugly

These hoes don't be mad at Megan, these hoes mad at Megan's Law

Why would I get mad at you for saying you the baddest? Why can’t we both agree that we bad, and that just be that?

Because once you get in the mirror and you start finding shit that you do like about yourself, you’re going to stay in the motherfucking mirror trying to perfect that.

I'm sayin', "Why spend mine when I can spend yours?"
