[F]
[Bb] [Ebm]
[G]
[F] fasted
for 60 days, wore [Bb] white, [D]
abstained from mirrors, [G]
abstained from [Fm] sex, [Bbm] slowly did not speak another word.
[N]
In that time my hair I grew past my [F] ankles, I slept on a mat on the floor, I swallowed
a sword, I [Bb] levitated, [G] reached the basement, [Fm] confessed my sins [G] and was baptized in a river,
got on my knees and said amen and said I mean, I whipped my own back and asked [A] for dominion
at your feet.
I threw myself into [G] a volcano, I drank the blood [Bb] and drank the wine, I sat alone [G] and
begged and bent at the waist for God, I crossed myself and thought I saw the devil.
I [Bb] grew thickened skin on my feet, I bathed in bleach and plugged my mincies with pages
[F] from the holy book but still [N] inside me coiled deep was the need to know, are you cheating on me?
Are you cheating on me?

it out the case, [F] the lot that moving [D] in them streets, [G] never had the baddest woman [D] in the
game of [F] being your she, [C] would they [F] be down to [D] ride, [G] no, they [D] used to hide [F] from you, lie
to you, [C] but y'all know, [F] we were made [D] for each other, [G] so I find you and hold you down, Ms.

[F] [C] Oh, I like [F] being walked all over [G] lately, walked all over [D] lately, I'd rather [F] be [C] crazy.
