they tell me i should fix my grill cause i got money now
i ain’t gon’ sit around and front like i ain’t thought about it
a perfect smile is more appealing but it’s funny how
my shit is crookedlook at how far i done got without it
i keep my twisted grill just to show the kids it’s real
we ain’t picture perfect but we worth the picture still
i got smart i got rich and i got bitches still
and they all look like my eyebrows thick as hell
love yourself girl or nobody will
though you a woman i don’t know how you deal
with all the pressure to look impressive and go out in heels
i feel for you killin’ yourself to find a man that’ll kill for you
you wake up put makeup on
stare in the mirror but it’s clear that you cant face whats wrong
no need to fix what god already put his paintbrush on
your roommate yelling why you gotta take so long
what it’s like to have a crooked smile

to all the women with the flaws know it’s hard my darling
you wonder why you’re lonely and your man’s not calling
you keep falling victim cause you’re insecure
and when i tell you that you’re beautiful you can’t be sure
cause he don’t seem to want you back and it’s got you askin’
so all you see is what you lackin’ not what you packin’
take it from a man that loves what you got
and baby girl you a star don’t let ’em tell you you’re not
now is it real eyebrows fingernails hair
is it real if it’s not girl you don’t care
cause what’s real is somethin’ that the eyes can’t see
that the hands cant touch that them broads cant be
and thats you never let ’em see your frown
and if you need a friend to pick you up ill be around
and we can ride with the windows down the music loud
i can tell you aint laughed in a while
but i wanna see that crooked smile

we don’t look nothin’ like the people on the screen
you know the movie stars picture perfect beauty queens
but we got dreams and we got the right to chase em
look at the nation
thats a crooked smile braces couldnt even straighten
seem like half the race is either on probation or in jail
wonder why we inhale cause we in hell already
i ask if my skin pale would i then sell like eminem or adele
but one more time for the ‘ville
and fuck all of that beef shit nigga lets make a mil
hey officer man we dont want nobody gettin’ killed
just open up that cell let my brother outta jail
i got money for the bail now and well now
if you askin’ will i tell nowayy hell nah

if you was around then you wouldnt need a witness now
how you like this crooked smile
