Safer [shortened] XXYYXX (Ft. SZA)

[VERSE 1: SZA]
Taking pictures to the corners, run out of space in here
My momma told me "move out"
She needed space in there
Daddy use to front me like I'm the lil boy he always wanted
Really 'been wishing I was six-foot-tall
No tits, just balls
Then I'd be safer
Then I'd be safer, wouldn't you know

[REFRAIN: SZA]
Growing is painful
Flowing and watching paint dry
Wouldn't you know, growing is lonely
Watching God paint skies blue
Wouldn't you know, growing is painful
Wouldn't you know
Growing is painful
Wouldn't you know...

[VERSE 2: SZA]
Somehow I managed to fuck around and play myself again
Tired of being poor, fired from every job
I've never stolen in, tired of being yours
Scared of depending on men
What would I be worth then?
Could you show me?
Could you hold me?
