[Verse 1]
Sometimes I think that if I was light-skinned
Then I would get into all the parties
Win all the Grammys, make the boys happy
Fuck lookin' sassy, they think I'm sexy
Fuck all of that shit, give me some assplants
It'll be fatter than the whole planet
You think I'm playin', but I'm just sayin'
If you work harder, won't get no dollar
Look what you started, dreams gettin' farther
Then I remembered I'm Reginald's daughter
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not average, average, average, average
Avеrage, average, avеrage, average
'Cause I'm not average, average, average, average
Average, average, average, average
[Verse 2]
Let me tell y'all about this girl Sudan
She had a great big heart and a real big smile
Mama knocked on the door, it go rat-a-tat-tat
She said, "My boyfriend think you can be a star"
So, we set her up in a pop duo
With her twin sister, Catherine Parks
And it really didn't even work out like that
Got kicked out 'cause she laid on her back
Well, that's how it seemed to her mommy and daddy
Cryin' on her boyfriend, "They will never understand me"
When all she wanna do is watch Sailor Moon
Smoke weed and stare up at the moon
[Bridge]
I be seein' things, I be seein' things
You know what I mean
It's so hard to be judged by all of the TV screens
Get that camera out my face 'cause they be lady things
I'm a natural, natural brown prom queen
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not average, average, average, average
Average, average, average, average
'Cause I'm not average, average, average, average
Average, average, average, average
[Verse 3]
Just because I'm hard to manage
Doesn't mean I cannot have it
I just want see us lavish
Bunch of niggas in some mansions
High-end livin' with some ratchet
All my exes got the maddest
They missed out on all my magic
Once I started wearin' lashes
I flew away, it's a habit
'Cause niggas out here sharin' rations
Takin' without ever askin'
All you focus on is fashion
I wanna know how it functions
Miss me with all the fuck-shit
Where the psychedelic drugs at?
Always tryna do some fun shit
You know I make nothing of something
"She's a ho," that's assumptions
I just wanna have my titties out
Titties out, titties out
I just wanna have my titties out
Titties out, titties out
Titties out
Titties out
(Titties out, titties out, titties out, titties out)
(Titties out, titties out, titties out, titties out)
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not average, average, average, average
Average, average, average, average
Not average, average, average, average
Average, average, average, average
