(A steady, confident beat begins. Imagine a spotlight on the speaker.)
They call me girl with CLASS, schooled by God, you see,
Not in the league of CLASS REPS, no, I'm Jesus' REP, that's me!
I stand on THIS GRACE of the WORD, strong, pure, and true,
A truth that can't be DISGRACED by the WORLD, in all I do.
Being the SALT of the earth — that's my FATE, a path divine,
Living a life pleasing to God — that's my FAITH, eternally mine.
I don't need GOGGLES to see THROUGH YOU, what lies beneath,
Nor GOOGLE to see the TRUE YOU, no hidden wreath.
The ballers SMILE to show me their TEETH, a flash, a gleam,
They only go that extra MILE 'cause they caught a dream.
They whisper, "I GOT T*TS," a shallow, empty sound,
But tell who wan use me do SHARWAMA? My God also got TEETH on holy ground.
So I know GOD'S GOT IT, a fortress firm and tall,
No go dey plan to kpai my JOY for NIGHT, I won't ever fall.
Still dey expect your JOY to come in the MORNING, after my tears have dried?
Either CHRISTIAN OR RONALDO, don't you DRIBBLE me, don't you hide.
Like OKOCHA dey expect MERCY, in your deceptive play,
My spirit's watchful, shining bright as day.
I believe in the NAKED TRUTH, exposed and clear,
No mean sey my well-covered sculptured curves is a CLOTHED LIE, no fear!
All my PARABOLA no be HYPERBOLE, my shape a natural art,
I got CURVES to place your heart in CUFFS, right from the start.
My WOMAN BODY naturally WOO MAN BUDDY, it's designed to entice,
Even my ANATOMY is AN ART TO ME, a beautiful device.
The GEOGRAPHY of my PHYSIQUE, a headshot trigger true,
To the CHEMISTRY of man's BIOLOGY, a captivating view.
This double BOOBS you call your BOO, you look like YOUTUBE wide,
If to sey na only BR**ST dey showcase my BEST, where would I hide?
My chest for dey HEAVY me, a burden, a shallow plight,
If it were only SLITS and TILTY TITS, I for no happy dey show TEETH, just polite.
If to sey na only MILK; this life for obviously SUCK — not in a MEEK or fair way,
My worth runs deeper, beyond the display.
While you're happy that I'm BURSTY, caught in that brief delight,
I'm happy Christ is my BESTIE, shining ever so bright.
You wanna strip tts and sip like a jug, with thirsty, hungry eyes,
While you stretchy tug it like a thug, beneath the judging skies.
My CHEST satisfaction THRESH SURE, a boundary I uphold,
Makes what you see a TREASURE CHEST, more precious than pure gold.
But No be the tts wey you wan teeth, with lust's consuming fire,
NA CHRIST IN ME MAKE ME DEY CHEST OUT, taking me higher!
My ear got a hole for EARING JEWELS, a sparkle, a gleam,
And an extra for HEARING sweet words, fulfilling life's dream.
I got a hot NECK for choking PECKS, a fleeting, playful art,
And a LONGER THROAT for a D**P THROAT, but with a guarded heart.
I know You got ZEAL for my BRA than BRAZIL, a burning, fierce desire,
To solve the MATH of my FIGURE EIGHT, setting your soul on fire.
E go sweet to BAMBAM with my BBUM, a rhythm you might chase,
But this bobby ASSET popping than A SET, embracing my own space.
I don't depend on the fact that I GOT TTS, a passing, worldly gain,
But on the fact that GOD GOT IT, washing away all pain.
I left the WORLD behind, its glitter, its endless plea,
To stand on the WORD, making my spirit free.
I no need look back to become SALT, my purpose clear and true,
I'm a work of ART — SEXY BY NATURE, fresh and new.
As for not drowning in the SX SEA — that's NURTURE, my spirit's deep embrace,
I no be GLO but I GLOW, and my GLOBE is GLOBAL, filling every space.
I stand out tall, with Christ as my HIGH HEELS, standing firm in grace!
(Hold the final pose, a confident, knowing gaze at the audience.)
What are your thoughts on this version? Does the rhythm and impact still come through clearly?
