Vanity Project Songtext
von Cyrena Wages

Raised up in West TN
To wear the dress and keep the peace
Brother ray yelled and I softly sang
Hallelujah
Stranger said I could be a model at 14
Too young to do what he did to me
Red bathing suit and Sonic sweet tea
Sir, who hurt you?
Record man had platinum plaques breathing down my neck
When he said I′d sound better in a shorter dress
Write some hits girl, trim the fat
I guess I'm silk flowers
On your vanity
Is it my porcelain skin
Or my sanity?
Oh I′ll be damned
If God is just another man
Sayin I'm a vanity project
Stay humble, in a crop top
Sing a safe song


Til the track stops
Maybeline under my eyes and over my heart
Oh to be heard, do I gotta scream?
To get your validation do I gotta bleed?
But then you'd just say that
Oh you say that I′m
Silk flowers
On your vanity
Is it my porcelain skin
Or my sanity?
Oh I′ll be damned
If God is just another man
Sayin I'm a vanity project
Ooh, she got nothing in her head
Ooh, cash money on her legs
Ooh, she got nothing in her head
Ooh, cash money on her legs
Oh I′ll be damned
If God is just another man
Sayin I'm a vanity project
Vanity Project
Are you listenin in a cold sweat?
To my vanity project
