Just My Luck

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh, uh, uh-huh

Look at me, look at me, struggling
Bring me down, I want more of it
Is that what you hear, is it written on my face
Or is it in my eyes, 'cause I'm stuck up in this place
And I just...

I don't know
Where you're leading me to go
Pulling me here, pulling me there
Can't take no more
What happened to being happy
That's what I ask myself
Over here tryna mask me
Who even is myself

Just my luck, just my luck
What you want, what you want
Just my luck, just my...
What you want from me
What you need me to be, oh

Look at me, I'm just your little character
Go 'head, play me,
I'm all strings
Do you dare me, double dare me to say otherwise
Well I dare me, 'cause I'm restless in your bitter lies

I don't know
Where you're leading me to go
Pulling me here, pulling me there
Can't take no more
What happened to being happy
That's what I ask myself
Over here tryna mask me
Who even is myself

Just my luck, just my luck
What you want, what you want
Just my luck, just my...
What you want from me
What you need me to be, oh

Does my confidence offend you
Cookie cutter enough for you
Is my melanin offensive
Do I talk more than I should, you tell me
Do I meet the standard, well?
Do I fit in the box or am I just...
Too much to handle, no I'm just...
Too much to stop

'Cause I won't ever let you
In the way of me and only me
Still I rise what they raised me on
I guarantee ya
On my mama, and my sisters, I'ma get there
I'ma win it, twenty-nine years, it's a fifteen, miss me

Trust me, my love
It's just one day where it's rough
For me and for you, don't give up, oh

Just my luck, just my luck
What you want, what you want
Just my luck, just my...
What you want from me
What you need me to be, yeah

Oh, are you hoping on my luck
Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh just my luck, just my luck
What you want, what you want
Just my luck, just my...
What you want from me
What you need me to be, yeah
