Sideways Song Lyrics

Sideways by Little Simz

Yeah
Toxic people get removed from where I’m stayin’
Trust me you can’t leave with that same energy you came with
I been on psychedelics, injected and pop pills
Just to get to where my spirit naturally is, pardon the kid
They say black don’t crack
My complexion is iridescent
A student might be the one to school you on many lessons
You ain’t seen the type of sh*t that I have
When you men have your daughters you’ll see how important that I am
No cappin’ in these scriptures, if I’m lying, I’m dying
I might serenade myself, sweet melodies hitting like a ton of bricks
You follow to fashion me while I was on some other sh*t, on some distant lover sh*t
Heating up the oven quick
Seeing what we’re doing over here will have you jumping ship
Right now this ain’t music one overlooks
So when doing that you must be as dumb as you look
Its funny
I find it funny our relationship with money
We already mentally spent the damn check
That’s what happens when you don’t know when you’ll get the bag next

Hmm, yeah
Yeah, I hear all that

Look, don’t get too attached to the version that you’re seeing
‘Cause friends come and go like the change in the seasons
DeShaun, that’s my nigga, its forever all love
‘Cause we don’t diss each other even when we disagree and
I’m ready to become all I believe in
The devil can’t illuminate my being
When God is omnipresent, overseeing
I’m taking notes from every book I’m reading
I didn’t know the word no could be so freeing
Respectfully, you ain’t got a check for me
Only I know how I feel, and what’s best for me
Eventually they’ll get that I’m here as a vessel
Stop playin’ with God and your destiny
I am everything they never was, never meant to be
I’m a queen in my seat I got royal life tendencies
Walkin’ in my light, my shadow is protecting me
Never moving sideways, I done this sh*t my way
And I say
