Glass Ceilings

[Verse 1] They said “cute dream” Pat my head, then they pass me Fetch they coffee While I’m plotting on a classic I was in the back row Writing on receipts Turned every side-eye To fuel under my feet [Chorus] You don’t see me till I’m gone You don’t clap till I’m too strong You don’t love me till I leave Watch me turn your doubt to steam I was quiet, now I’m loud I’m the storm behind the cloud You can sleep, but you gon’ see You gon’ see what you missed in me (yeah) [Verse 2] You talk big talk But you never read the fine print All the long nights Every “nah” that I’ve outlived You just see the highlight Never saw the hunger Turn your little half-smirk To a distant thunder (boom) [Chorus] You don’t see me till I’m gone You don’t clap till I’m too strong You don’t love me till I leave Watch me turn your doubt to steam I was quiet, now I’m loud I’m the storm behind the cloud You can sleep, but you gon’ see You gon’ see what you missed in me (oh yeah) [Bridge] Keep your cheap praise I don’t need change, I print it All that “she won’t” Turned “she did” in a minute Underestimated? That’s my favorite position Let you look down While I rise through your ceiling [Chorus] You don’t see me till I’m gone You don’t clap till I’m too strong You don’t love me till I leave Watch me turn your doubt to steam I was quiet, now I’m loud I’m the storm behind the cloud You can sleep, but you gon’ see You gon’ see what you missed in me
