raye - ice cream man. (live at montreux jazz festival) lyrics

[verse 1]
so, this producer hit me up on the dm
he told me, “hey, i really like what you are doing”
he told me, “come ’round to the studio, let’s cook it”
he told me, “come to catch a vibe and make some music”
but when i got there, should’ve heard what he was saying
tryna touch me, tryna f+ck me, i’m not playing
i should have left that place as soon as i walked in it
how godd+mn dare you do that to me, really?

[pre+chorus]
coming like the ice cream man
till i felt his ice+cold hands
and how i pay the price now, d+mn
godd+mn, no, what the? godd+mn
everything you did, it left me in a ruin
and no, i didn’t say a word, i guess that proves it
i’m a woman, oh yes

[chorus]
’cause i’m a woman
i’m a very f+cking brave, strong woman
and i’ll be d+mned if i let a man ruin
how i walk, how i talk, how i do it
man, i’ve been broken for a moment
i’ve been through it, no
it’s even harder to be brave alone
i was a girl, now i’m grown, i’m a woman
a very f+cking strong woman
[verse 2]
and i was seven
was twenty one, was seventeen and was eleven
it took a while to understand what my consent means
if i was ruthless, they’d be in the penitentiary
but all the stress of being honest wouldn’t help me
i pushed it down, but it was livin’ in me rent+free
and then i fell into some things that were unhealthy
a place where no one heard me asking them to help me (help me, help me)

[pre+chorus]
coming like the ice cream man
till i felt his ice+cold hands
and how i pay the price now, d+mn
godd+mn
everything you did, it left me in a ruin
and no, i didn’t say a word, i guess that proves it
i’m a woman

[chorus]
’cause i’m a woman
i’m a very f+cking brave, strong woman
and i’ll be d+mned if i let a man ruin
how i walk, how i talk, how i do it
man, i’ve been broken for a moment
i’ve been through it, no
it’s even harder to be brave alone
i was a girl, now i’m grown, i’m a woman
a very f+cking strong woman, mmm
[bridge]
i wish i could say how i feel, how i felt
and explain why i’m silently blaming myself
’cause i put on these faces, pretending i’m fine
then i go to the bathroom and i press rewind in my head
always going round and round in my head
your fingerprints stuck a stain on my skin
you made me frame myself for your sin
you pathetic, dead excuse of a man

[outro]
ooh, ooh
i’m a brave, strong woman
oh, yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh
and i’ll be d+mned if i let a man ruin, oh
i’m a very f+cking brave, strong woman, yeah
