Mm, yeah
My soul got washed clean
After everything, it was a mistake
My soul got rinsed out, yeah, after all we went through
It was a mistake, straight up, no more playin' the fool
The ground's steady now, stars all lined up right
I reached out once, you damn near took my whole arm that night
Some things about me? Baby, they don't bend
Non-negotiable, write that down, my friend
You won't see me beggin'
Won't catch me takin' back a single word I said
You won't see tears past day two, no way
One strike and you're out, that's how I play
Malala, Joan of Arc, Rosa Parks, Frida too
They're the mirror I look in when I'm movin' like I do
Baby, flirtin' was cute way back in the day
But I'm on another level, Google it, okay?
I ain't moldin' to your world or your point of view
Mama here is bad as hell, show some respect, it's due
I ain't teachin' grown men the ABCs (no way)
My walk is long, principles make me elevate
They set the bar for courage, rewrote history
Some things 'bout me are non-ne-go-ti-a-ble
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
Write it down, I ain't schoolin' no grown-ass man
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
You thought I'd fold, thought I'd shrink to fit your frame
But I'm built different, this ain't no game
I gave you grace, you took the whole damn arm
Now I'm standin' tall, no more false alarm
I'm the standard now, watch how I move
Intellectual queen, yeah, that's my groove
No more beggin', no more chasin'
No more shrinkin' for your validation
I'm Malala brave, Frida fierce
Rosa strong, Joan without fear
You crossed the line, now watch me rise
Non-negotiable, that's my vibe
Malala, Joan of Arc, Rosa Parks, Frida too
They're the mirror I look in when I'm movin' like I do
I'm on another level, no more playin' small
Mama here is bad as hell, stand tall
Some things 'bout me are non-ne-go-ti-a-ble
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
Write it down, I ain't schoolin' no grown-ass man
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
Non-ne-go(go)-ti-a-ble
Non-negotiable
That's me, that's me
