Caramel Flake

Verse 1
I used to be the type of girl expected pregnant at 16
You recall that, everywhere I went oh I was seen
I used to be the type of girl that would hate on this nicotine
Now you know what, workaholic addicted to routine
I used to be the type of girl that would look out for fights
Sleeves were rolled up, now I believe in shit like human rights
I used to be the type of girl that walked alone at night
I could cope up, felt like a grown up between coloured lights

I was up to no good
But time hardens wood
Yeah I was mean with the old me
Coloured teenager not worthy
All because I am just a, tell em

Chorus
Caramel Flake Caramel Flake, Caramel Flake
Caramel Flake Caramel Flake, Caramel Flake

Verse 2
I used to be the type of girl that always counted all her cents
They say what up, middle of the month again late on my rent
I used to be the type of girl that would just open up and vent
Yeah you know that, sometimes I spoke more than I meant
I used to be the type of girl they thought would end up cleaning rooms
I say hold up, always day dreaming head up in the moon
I used to be the type of girl that’s always late, never too soon
Do you blow that, vodka tequila made me bloom

I was up to no good
But time hardens wood
Yeah I was mean with the old me
Coloured teenager not worthy
All because I am just a, tell em

Chorus
Caramel Flake Caramel Flake, Caramel Flake
Caramel Flake Caramel Flake, Caramel Flake

Verse 3
Who were my models I had none
No immigrants were at the front
Girls that looked not like me in tonnes
Descendants rising like Big Pun
Latino gang dando un monton
But Asians? Please don’t roll the drum *
Count on my fingers just the thumb
Our role model was a nun
So I was just that type of girl
Another stone between the pearls
And how could I debate it
Thought my route was made and faded
Today I realise Im a caramel flake that has made it

Chorus
Caramel Flake Caramel Flake, Caramel Flake
Caramel Flake Caramel Flake, Caramel Flake
