Ballad of Bitter Honey Lyrics
That was my ass you saw bouncing
Next to Ludacris
It was only on screen for a second
But it was kinda hard to miss
And all those other hoochie skanks
They ain't got shit on me
And one of Nelly's bodyguards
He totally agreed
My mother cleaned the homes of wealthy people 'till the day
She died and so to California
I did make my way
I tried to finish nursing school
I really wanted to, you see
But all those broken bodies
Well they, they really got to me
And they all think I'm stupid
I can see it in their eyes
But I know what's inside their hearts
I penetrate their lies
Sometimes it gets me crazy
But I keep my feelings hid
'Cause I know deep inside they're only frightened little kids
And if I press my breasts together
And arch my back just so
I can ask for pretty things
And they will not say no
No one should have to suffer
No one should go without
Don't hate me 'cause I know just what this world is all about
Don't hate me 'cause I know just what this world is all about

Don't hate me 'cause I know just what this world is all about

I think wrat is right. this is a song written from the pov of a dancer in a hip hop video. I love how he gives her so much credit as being a human just like anyone. It's interesting because he is writing abotu a character in a completely different cultural circle than the one Eef lives in. I think it's very well done.
This folk song forms part of a song cycle about the life of a young hip-hop dancer.
I think it's about a girl who's life is so fucked up that she has this one crazy night
