Florentine - Could Never Be (feat. Noir Red) Lyrics

I'm a spicy little minimalist crystal-wearing darling
Splash some avant-garde in
Then I'm growing like gardens
Yeah, your closet dripping but your spirit's also starving
Back away from that phone, don't let them make you a clone
I got thrift store swag, some hand-me-down shoes
It's no concern for me, have you seen the news
I got bigger things to think of than bigger rings
To think of then fancy clothes, what's the value of your soul
As a kid, I wished for silver and gold
I wanted flashy watches, wrist game cold
But now I see that there will never be a gem
That'll ever be as bright as what I'm packing within
F*ck a trend, throw that shit out, creatives I commend
F*ck a trend, following behind caused original sin
And one thing that I can promise I will never do
Is stifle me being me so I can try to be you
Can never be
Can never be
Can never be anyone but me, Florentine, faithfully
Can never be
Can never be
Can never be anyone but me, Florentine, faithfully
Yeah, we coming live and direct in the eye of the storm
I walk the line on the edge of societal norms
Grab the mic to perform, you the type to conform
I'm in my bed writing rhymes at like five in the morn
And potential I ain't reaching it
The mission is exceeding it
Transcendent representative of civil disobedience
Keep it thorough, add it to your reading list
I got the recipe, yall missing the ingredients
No Michelin, it's eat the rich
If y'all ain't with it, eat a dick
I chop them into little bits and then proceed to plead the fifth
Say peace and dip, I'm heading back to the lab again
Tryna turn babblin into world traveling
I'm on the battlements as I hurl javelins
'Rrive at the gathering, asking what's happening
I stride and I strive for it every week
I take pride that my mind is clever, unique
I ain't mindless when I'm nod my head and agree
I don't care who you are, you can never be me
Can never be
Can never be
Can never be anyone but me, Florentine, thankfully
I found a way out, no boxes here can confine me
I'm having no doubts, no labels here can define me
I got no competition cause I'm in my own lane
Finally past the growing pains, meet me at the throne
Damn, I'm in my zone, man
I'm trying to get back to my roots, trying to come home, man
I'm trying to get away from all the voices
Trying to lead me to bad choices
Trying to make me insecure
Trying to make my vision blur
I know you hear what I'm saying
I know you see that drip is natural, the way I be slaying
I know you see that I can never be product of Instagram
Product of TikTok, innovation nonstop
I'm in the new vanguard, the way that I bop
Ready to lead the way, the grind don't stop
Despite the trending topics, tempting they may be
I stay focused on myself cause that will never be me
Can never be
Can never be
Can never be anyone but me, Florentine, thankfully
Can never be
Can never be
Can never be anyone but me, Florentine, thankfully
