California, this evening
I'll be headed back
For my shot at the family dream
I am just a boy, but with a little bit of culture, I'll go far
I want the world to know that I'm not just a photograph
Some way, someday you'll know my name
If I can let my ego have my face
I'm not too good to say: I love you, I love you
Why, oh baby
Must we always make love from the back?
My eyes are up here and my legs can move on
I am just a girl, but with a little motivation, I'll go far
I want the world to know that I'm not just a piece of trash
Some way, someday you'll know my name
If I can let my ego have my face
I'm not too good to say: I love you, I love you
I been dyin' since I learned it
Art is dead and artists killed it
I am just a boy, but with a little bit of a culture, I'll go far
I want the world to know that I'm not just a photograph
Some way, someday you'll know my name
If I can let my ego have my face
I'm not too good to say: I love you, I love you
Oh, I am just a girl, but with a little revelation, I'll go far
I want the world to know that I'm not just a piece of ass
Some way, someday you'll know my name
If I can let my ego have my face
I'm not too good to say: I love you
I love you
