I Am


Put your ears to the speaker
I’m only gonna say it once
I am ARO
Only found in the most venomous area
Very fierce & sharp
Dominant warrior of them all
Take a knife to the heart
Stand strong it’ll only get worse
So put your ears to the speaker
I’m only gonna say it once
I am ARO

Picture a black sky
There a limit to this sky
Only “cant” is a state of mind
Break through you’ll see light
Achieve greatness you’ll see
“The champ is here!”
So put your ears to the speaker
I’m only gonna say it once
I am ARO

Gay is shades of the rainbow
Sometimes bright sometime dark
My woman just left me
My heart is broke
It is torn from tissue to blood
To blood on the floor
My hands shaking
There is no way I can move on
When will I ever restore
So put your ears to the speaker
I’m only gonna say it once
I am ARO

If it ain’t the sway in my curls
The two wrinkles in my face
The mother that birth me
It not Mi…a
So put your ears to the speaker
I’m only gonna say it once
I am ARO
