about

This song describes the way society hyper-sexualizes and erases Black women and femmes

lyrics

What are we doing?
What's going on?
Haven't we been here before?
I already closed this door

Right back to square one
I just can't win
Maybe I should try to hide
Hold in what I feel inside

Every time we get here I feel stuck
Feels like I am just out of my luck
Every day is just the same
And I don't want to play this game
Every time we get here I feel stuck

Ooh
Ooh

I feel so empty
I feel so numb
Something's pressing down on me
Try to fight but I can't breathe

How do they see me?
Do they all know?
Am I just an empty flask?
Am I just an easy task?

Every time we get here I feel stuck
Feels like I am just out of my luck
Every day is just the same
And I don't want to feel this way
Every time we get here I feel
Like

I am a raisin baking in the sun and
Every day I melt away and harden 'till I'm stone

A raisin
In the sun
I'll melt until I'm gone

A raisin
In the sun
I'll harden
'Till I'm stone

I, I am a raisin baking in the sun and
Every day I melt away and harden 'till I'm stone

I, I am a raisin baking in the sun
And every day I melt away and harden 'till I'm stone

I'll melt away
I'll melt away
I'll melt away
I'll melt away
I'll melt away
I'll melt away
I'll melt
