LGBT ever since I was 3
And I never really cared
Call me "he" call me "she"
Fell in love
When I got a sip of Orange Hi-C
Didn't mind
When I spilled some on my pressed white tee

All the looks I would get
I took nobody's shit
All I did was exist
They was having a fit
They was loving and glutening
Though they'd never admit
All that venom they brought to me
All that hatred they spit

But them days they would rue
I was staging a coup
I was keeping a record
Of all the shit they would do
I was running them
Sonin' them now
And none of them knew
I'd be the one to collect
All the debt they'd accrue

When it was finished and done
I got all of them
They didn't think it was fun
It wasn't small to them
I remember each and every last one of them
Get them one at a time and straight punish them

When you see me on my feet
With my fearless elegant
Public enemy
Cuz I'm black and intelligent
No matter where I be
I do me for the hell of it
You see me in the room
Don't address me - I'm the elephant

When you see me on my feet
With my fearless elegant
Public enemy
Cuz I'm black and intelligent
No matter where I be
I do me for the hell of it
You see me in the room
Don't address me - I'm the elephant

When I sit at their tables
They jelly like my bagels
They think I'm uptight
They don't know I'm doing kegels
They be working in my stables
Trimming down my maples
They see a nigga living like nothing from their fables

If I'm a dollar you a peso
You gon' wear that shit forever
Since you like to label
You gon' get that shit together
Moment that I say so
I'm the house of Slytherin
But you is just a Draco
You follow me like Waco

I'm gonna get there bit by bit
Lemme go see be back real quick
When I come back I'll take my pick
Now I return you tried a trick
Fuckin' around you think you slick
This is plain arithmetic
In for a pound in for a brick
I am the body politic

And just like a dolphin kick
Imma come down
On you niggas like a Bolshevik
Have you on the ground
On your knees like a Kaepernick
I don't make a sound
I just come in archangelic after I dismantle it

When you see me on my feet
With my fearless elegant
Public enemy
Cuz I'm black and intelligent
No matter where I be
I do me for the hell of it
You see me in the room
Don't address me - I'm the elephant

When you see me on my feet
With my fearless elegant
Public enemy
Cuz I'm black and intelligent
No matter where I be
I do me for the hell of it
You see me in the room
Don't address me - I'm the elephant
