Ice Cream Man. (Live at Montreux Jazz Festival)

[Verse 1]
So, this producer hit me up on the DM
He told me, "Hey, I really like what you are doing"
He told me, "Come 'round to the studio, let's cook it"
He told me, "Come to catch a vibe and make some music"
But when I got there, should've heard what he was saying
Tryna touch me, tryna fuck me, I'm not playing
I should have left that place as soon as I walked in it
How goddamn dare you do that to me, really?

[Pre-Chorus]
Coming like the ice cream man
Till I felt his ice-cold hands
And how I pay the price now, damn
Goddamn, no, what the? Goddamn
Everything you did, it left me in a ruin
And no, I didn't say a word, I guess that proves it
I'm a woman, oh yes

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a woman
I'm a very fucking brave, strong woman
And I'll be damned if I let a man ruin
How I walk, how I talk, how I do it
Man, I've been broken for a moment
I've been through it, no
It's even harder to be brave alone
I was a girl, now I'm grown, I'm a woman
A very fucking strong woman

[Verse 2]
And I was seven
Was twenty one, was seventeen and was eleven
It took a while to understand what my consent means
If I was ruthless, they'd be in the penitentiary
But all the stress of being honest wouldn't help me
I pushed it down, but it was livin' in me rent-free
And then I fell into some things that were unhealthy
A place where no one heard me asking them to help me (Help me, help me)

[Pre-Chorus]
Coming like the ice cream man
Till I felt his ice-cold hands
And how I pay the price now, damn
Goddamn
Everything you did, it left me in a ruin
And no, I didn't say a word, I guess that proves it
I'm a woman

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a woman
I'm a very fucking brave, strong woman
And I'll be damned if I let a man ruin
How I walk, how I talk, how I do it
Man, I've been broken for a moment
I've been through it, no
It's even harder to be brave alone
I was a girl, now I'm grown, I'm a woman
A very fucking strong woman, mmm

[Bridge]
I wish I could say how I feel, how I felt
And explain why I'm silently blaming myself
'Cause I put on these faces, pretending I'm fine
Then I go to the bathroom and I press rewind in my head
Always going round and round in my head
Your fingerprints stuck a stain on my skin
You made me frame myself for your sin
You pathetic, dead excuse of a man

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
I'm a brave, strong woman
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh
And I'll be damned if I let a man ruin, oh
I'm a very fucking brave, strong woman, yeah
