lyrics

I’ve been a black widow and I have been a brown recluse
I’m weaving beautifully so tell me what is your excuse
I see you watchin and I see the fire in your eyes so tell me where that passion goes when you’re seein my people die?

you see me on the web and act like I’m not supafly,
you wanna breatha sativa wit me get super high?
you wanna act like you’re not creepy crawlin at my shows
come for the music and stay for the body and the clothes

I knew a girl who worked her way up to the waterspout,
now there’s a spider inside her and she can’t get it out
she’s workin hard in this city trying to gain some clout
she’s cute and proud but she ain’t loud so now she gotta shout

I’m pretty delicate but everybody thinks I’m tough
considered suicide but the rainbow should be enough
Not kurt cobain so R-E-S-P-E-C-T is rough
So put your money where your mouth is and I’ll call your bluff

liar liar,
I was just an object of desire
not religious? stop preachin to de choir
metalhead til I’m dead
but tell these white boys to stop setting churches on fiyah;
confession; when did you first feel that aggression,
where does it come from and what is its lesson,
dance yourself clean because you got me stressin,
and only then will you receive my blessin

bodies twistin like Uzumaki
placed the curse and nobody stopped me,
(bouncy and singsongy)
if he dies he dies; but he bettah beat it up like I was Ivan Drago and he's was rocky

I am the trickster
I am anansi
8 legged smellin like fresh calamansi
rare and a treasure I’ll always remember on days when it feels like nobody else wants me

I’m rich in silk and I will save it for a rainy day (araenidae)
I rest in peace til I see something tryna come my way-I make the people stare don’t really care even tho I am shy;
cuz all I really gotta do is to stay black and die

you wanna try not to get bitten by the brown recluse
you wanna try to deny that you want some guava juice,
you can’t undo what you’ve done because you are the prodigal son
so let the venom work its way into your next excuse
