[Janelle Monáe - Crazy, Classic, Life lyrics]
You told us we hold these
Truths to be self-evident
That all men and women are created equal
And that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable rights
Among these are life, liberty, and the
And the pursuit of happiness
Young, black, wild and free
Naked in a limousine
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
Ridin' through the hood real slow
I love it when I smell the trees
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
I just wanna party hard
Sex in the swimmin' pool
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh) , yeah
I don't need a lot of cash
I just wanna break the rules
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
We don't need another ruler
All of my friends are kings
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
I'm not America's nightmare
I'm the American dream (Oh oh, oh oh)
Just let me live my life
I want a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
So if the world should end tonight
I had a crazy, classic, life
I don't need a diamond ring
I don't wanna waste my youth (Oh oh, oh oh)
I don't wanna live on my knees
I just have to tell the truth
(Oh oh, oh oh) , baby
I don't wanna be let down
I don't wanna cheat on you
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
I just wanna find a God
And I hope she loves me too (Oh oh, oh oh)
We don't need another ruler
We don't need another fool
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
I'm not America's nightmare
I'm the American cool (Oh oh, oh oh)
Just let me live my life
I want a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
So if the world should end tonight
I had a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
So if the world should end tonight
I had a crazy, classic, life
Crazy, classic, life
Yeah, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh
Handcuffed in a 'bando
White boy in his sandals police like a Rambo
Blow it out, blow it out like a candle, Sambo
Me and you was friends but
To them we the opposite
The same mistake, I'm in jail
You on top of shit you livin' life while I'm
Walkin' 'round moppin' shit
Tech kid, backpack, now you a college kid
All I wanted was to break the rules like you
All I wanted was someone to love me too
But no matter where it was I always stood out
Black Waldo dancin' with the thick brows
We was both runnin' naked at the luau
We was both on shrooms prayin' face down
Waist down remember when they told you I
Was too black for ya?
And now my black poppin' like
A bra-strap on ya
I was kicked out, said I'm too loud
Kicked out, said I'm too proud
But all I really ever felt was stressed out
Kinda like my afro when it's pressed out
Truths to be self-evident
That all men and women are created equal
And that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable rights
Among these are life, liberty, and the
And the pursuit of happiness
Young, black, wild and free
Naked in a limousine
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
Ridin' through the hood real slow
I love it when I smell the trees
(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)

(Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh)
I'm not America's nightmare
I'm the American dream (Oh oh, oh oh)
Just let me live my life
I want a crazy, classic, life
I want a crazy, classic, life
So if the world should end tonight
I had a crazy, classic, life
