Now Listening to: The Grits

"The Grits(Dichotomy A)"
I love the ending part of this song entitled "I BE" where in
Pettidee rap her advice to all lady friends... read on and Amen for all my sisters!


I Be
(Album Dichotomy A)
(BY: The Grits Feat Pettidee)


(Closing RAP) Pettidee

Since yo girl you must be trippin
fallen head over hills for a man
who don't love you, don't know God
and dont wanna do either

lettin him wine and dine you
for small a price to pay
to get to the vine
of a modern day tales
of casting pearls before swine

no wonder why you figure out man are dogs
your brokeness his neediness
has brought you to this conclusion
you might as well think of another solution
after all man are made in the image of God
even if they are dillusional, just set a higher goals

Godly, ambitious, educated brothers do exist
you just cant see cause your vision is twisted
close your eyes and ill paint a picture for a man
who aint posted up in clubs trying to get your number
who looks at your sets of eyes not the predictable others
who prays to God for his queen and so he ain't impress with
whether your wearing short, bling or superficial thing

he knows the diamond piece,
doesn't come with the price tag of hotel
before he enter your heart
something that he discovered on his knees before God not you

So you wanna good man?
heres what you do
button up that shirt, loosen up those pants
out for stepping instead of the latest booty dance

when an unsual suspect comes at you
give him a chance
kings and rock, crowns or crowds for what?
they are more secured than that
ask God what you need and not your girl
remember you determine your self worth
make the necessary sacrifices
even when it hurts

ooooh and get DOG out of your vocab
God the royal priesthood can hear you every word
to think D.O.G. is spelled M.A.N.
it's beyond absurd.
