[Verse 1]
Ooh child you give good advice
Good with numbers
Good with god
Good with people
You're good with cops
I think I could learn a lot
[Hook]
I'm the bitch and you're the Boss
Boss (x8)
[Verse 2]
Ooh child tell me how it goes
How to make it

If I told you where I been, you wouldn't believe me
If you taught me how to fish, I would sweep the sea clean
If I told you where I been, you wouldn't believe me
If you taught me how to fish, I would sweep the sea clean
If I had the privilege, how would you treat me?
If only, If only
[Verse 3]
Ooh child I'll take all you got
All your friends and all their moms
All the lessons that they've been taught
Coming back for them tomorrow
[Chorus]
If I told you where I been, you wouldn't believe me
If you taught me how to fish, I would sweep the sea clean
If I had the privilege, how would you treat me?
Like I'm a rare flower, cracks in the concrete
If I told you where I been, you'd never believe me
If you taught me how to fish, I'd never stop eating
If I had the privilege, how would you treat me?
If only, if only
[Verse 4]
Ooh Child you give good advice
I can see your parents raised you right
I can see you rising off this rock
I think I could learn a lot
