Exhibit Diaz - Ibeyi

It’s frustrating when you just can’t express yourself

And it’s hard to trust enough to undress yourself

To stand exposed and naked in a world full of hatred

Where the sick thoughts of mankind control all the sacred

I pause, take a step back, record all the set backs

Fast forward towards the stars and the jetpack

My feet might fail me, my heart might ail me

The synagogues of Satan might accuse or jail me

I’ve got something to say, oh eyo

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow’s on the way

That name on that birth certificate, that ain’t the real me

That ain’t the real me, the lies can’t conceal me

The sunrise and the moon tides and the skies gonna reveal me

My brain pours water on my tear ducts to heal me

I’ve got something to say, oh eyo

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow’s on the way

The message grab ahold to every ears it get whispered in

The waters in the bayous of New Orleans still glistening, yeah

The universe is listening, be careful what you say in it

My grandma told me every bed a nigga make, he lay in it

I’ve got something to say, oh eyo

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow’s on the way

The church you pray in it, the work is on the outside

Staring out the windows, it’s for love songs and house flies

I’ve got something to say, oh eyo

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow’s on the way

I’ve got something to say, oh eyo

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow’s on the way
