kilo kish - distractions i: the opposite sex lyrics
my name’s lakishaaaa
name after my dad
his names lakostia
goes by coz
i go by kish
because it’s shorter
and to me
a lot less obvious
at home my momma
she calls me kisha
but at the school yard
there were a million
when i was yound
i needed freedom
and to feel
i stood out in the world
(too many girls)
just. stand. out.
when i was sixteen
i wanted money
i put lakisha on my resume
how funny
it was a joke
i found that no one
would call me back
because of it
(oh sh-t)
i’ll tell you the truth
like when i moved to new york
n-body knew my name
i put my head down and worked
like 2 jobs at a time
learned to read between the lines
i’ll say im kish on my resume this time!
i was meant to be named india
after my greatest grandmother
(that’s her name)
but someone had a baby first
and the name was given right to her
(what a shame)
i’d probably end up
a lot more conscious
i’d burn some incense
i’d pray to rocks and
it’s hard to say who you would be
if you were named after somebody else
but i feel guilty
stereotyping
would have me leave it out of all and everything
some people like to -ssume different
but in truth im not a bit ashamed
(it’s my name)
when i sign my signature
it’s with an “i”
and never with a “k”
you call me kilo
but lakisha
forever will be my name
