Annie by Tyler Lauren Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Annie put you on, she don't know about tomorrow
Running back to homeland like you wasn't borrowed
Take care
You know the way they feel about you
'Cause you 'macchiato-colored,' girl
And you switch when you move
[Pre-hook]
It smell like cocoa butter, soul food
All the white they sold you
Niggas in they hatchbacks
Freestylin' to old school
All got AF1s on and they double as our church shoes
Know it's graduation day but can I wear my FUBU?
[Hook]
You wanna see my laundry list?
I wanna be on 106
I wanna rock the freshest kicks
I wanna be like normal kids
[Verse 2]
Occupy the streets until you occupy that cell
And it's a shame you still the same
'Cause you can't move around too well
Niggas starve or make a sell
Or the hood move on to jail
I'm a baby with some lunch debt and some shoes that I can't fill
[Bridge]
Lost in the fine print
Gone into hiding
Little ziploc and he
Lost to confinement
And I
Wish I was grown
Want a house to call my own
Want the ice cream man to tell them white folk:
Get up out my home
(Ohhh)
(Yeah)
[Verse 3]
Running from the red lights
Mama trippin' big time
Like I told you so
I still get to free roam
But we gotta be home
When the lights come on
I'm singing my lungs out
I don't got no guns how
I don't scream, I don't shout
And I never thought I'd die with the sun out
[Hook]
(Oh)
You wanna see my laundry list?
I wanna be on 106
I wanna rock the freshest kicks
I wanna be like normal kids
Annie put you on, she don't know about tomorrow
Running back to homeland like you wasn't borrowed
Take care
You know the way they feel about you
'Cause you 'macchiato-colored,' girl
And you switch when you move
[Pre-hook]
It smell like cocoa butter, soul food
All the white they sold you
Niggas in they hatchbacks
Freestylin' to old school
All got AF1s on and they double as our church shoes
Know it's graduation day but can I wear my FUBU?
[Hook]
You wanna see my laundry list?
I wanna be on 106
I wanna rock the freshest kicks
I wanna be like normal kids
[Verse 2]
Occupy the streets until you occupy that cell
And it's a shame you still the same
'Cause you can't move around too well
Niggas starve or make a sell
Or the hood move on to jail
I'm a baby with some lunch debt and some shoes that I can't fill
[Bridge]
Lost in the fine print
Gone into hiding
