Analysis of Dangerous
Once killed myself for y’all’s acceptance
Now I’m killing everybody internally
For your their negligence
Clouds above my throne
Guess I’m the queen of depression
Ice on my heart
For the pride you demanded
Now I’m calculating my flaws
Since the only way you love yourself
Is if I’m drowning.
