Crooked Smile
[00:00.75] Even though I-
[00:01.55] On my way, on my way, on my way down
[00:03.68] On my way, on my way, on my way down
[00:06.86] You were the one that was trying to keep me way down
[00:09.25] But like the sun, know you know I found my way back 'round
[00:12.97] They tell me I should fix my grill 'cause I got money now
[00:15.10] I ain't gon' sit around and front like I ain't thought about it
[00:18.29] A perfect smile is more appealing but it's funny how
[00:21.20] My shit is crooked look at how far I done got without it
[00:24.40] I keep my twisted grill, just to show them kids it's real
[00:27.32] We ain't picture perfect but we worth the picture still
[00:30.24] I got smart, I got rich, and I got bitches still
[00:33.43] And they all look like my eyebrows, thick as hell
[00:36.35] Love yourself, girl, or nobody will
[00:38.74] Though you a woman I don't know how you deal
[00:40.86] With all the pressure to look impressive and go out in heels
[00:43.25] I feel for you
[00:45.11] Killing yourself to find a man that'll kill for you
[00:47.51] You wake up, put makeup on
[00:49.63] Stare in the mirror but it's clear that you can't face what's wrong
[00:52.55] No need to fix what God already put his paint brush on
[00:55.20] Your roommate yelling, "Why you gotta take so long?"
[00:58.40] What it's like to have a crooked smile
[01:00.78] On my way, on my way, on my way down
[01:02.65] On my way, on my way, on my way down (This crooked smile)
[01:05.83] You were the one that was trying to keep me way down
[01:08.50] But like the sun, know you know I found my way back 'round
[01:11.95] To all the women with the flaws, know it's hard my darlin'
[01:14.33] You wonder why you're lonely and your man's not callin'
[01:17.25] You keep fallin' victim 'cause you're insecure
[01:20.45] And when I tell you that you're beautiful you can't be sure
[01:23.63] 'Cause he don't seem to want you back
[01:26.02] And it's got you askin'
[01:27.08] So all you see is what you lackin' not what you packin'
[01:29.48] Take it from a man that loves what you got
[01:32.14] And baby girl you're a star, don't let 'em tell you you're not
[01:35.05] Now is it real? Eyebrows, fingernails, hair
[01:37.98] Is it real? if it's not, girl you don't care
[01:40.91] 'Cause what's real is something that the eyes can't see
[01:43.57] That the hands can't touch
[01:45.69] That them broads can't be, and that's you
[01:47.55] Never let 'em see you frown
[01:49.68] And if you need a friend to pick you up, I'll be around
[01:52.34] And we can ride with the windows down, the music loud
[01:56.05] I can tell you ain't laughed in a while
[01:58.44] But I wanna see that crooked smile
[02:00.03] On my way, on my way, on my way down

[02:24.74] You know them movie stars, picture perfect beauty queens
[02:27.40] But we got dreams and we got the right to chase 'em
[02:30.85] Look at the nation
