Man, you better KNOW!

Yes, you, I'm talking to you.
The way you would talk to a girl like me.
Yes, I'm pretty, there's billions like me,
Yes, my body's nice, you should see some other girls,
Yes, I know I look right,
Sexy, beautiful, fine.

But before you lose your mind,
Man, you better know.

I am not a flower,
You should never try to put me in a corner.
I am not a picture for you and your boys to stare at,
Don't try to test my intelligence.
I am not a one-nighter,
I'm a keeper.
I'm not a gold digger,
I've got more gold in my brain than you could ever have in your wallet.

Man, you better know.

I'm not defined by my friends,
My hair or clothes,
By the car I drive,
The job I have.

I'm not defined by your expectations,
Ancient myths,
I do not and shall not ever bow to every one of your last whims,
Yes, I said it,
You don't own me, never have and yes, never will.

So when you watch a girl like me go by,
This is what you ought to know,
I'm brighter than any spark you've ever seen,
Sharper than any knife's edge,
Smoother than you're best line,
Smarter than the best grade,
Completely out of your league,
Nicer than I seem,
Richer than any bank account,
Able to beat any expectation,
Defy any assumption,
Hold a whole crowds attention,
Live a humble yet noticeable life,
Open up my mouth and speak more truths than you ever imagined,
Shoot you down with my knowledge
And still be as alluring as a light to a moth.

Man, you better know!
