(nicki speaking)--This is the autobiography of Nicki Minaj      [Chorus:]      May the lord protect me as the world gets hectic   My voice projected my life reflected      [Verse 1:]      Daddy was a crack fiend 2 in the morning had us running down the block like a track team   When you burnt the house down n my mother was in it   How could I forget it, the pain infinite   She's my queen and I ain't even british   She's the only reason that I went to school and I finished   She told me that I had talent   Got on her knees and prayed for me when I started being violent   She saw something in me that, until this day I don't know if I could be dat   But I'm a die tryin and when I'm done cryin   Grab the iron and black out like I'm re-tirin   Nightmares of you killing my mother   The reason that I sleep with my head under the covers   N they shoulda thrown a book at, ch'you cause I hate you so much that it burn when I look at ch'you      [Chorus: x2]      May the lord protect me as the world gets hectic my voice projected my life reflected      [Verse 2:]      Damn I wanna run to you   Hold you n kiss you n tell you how I miss you   Thought I would have a son for you   But now it's official it's over and I can't let you go   But I gotta let you know all the shit I did make it feel like I'm dyin real slow, cause no one understands me they don't know what to do when I'm hurt n when I'm angry   You was my friend and my man and my daddy,    You was there when that bitch tried to stab me anything I ever needed knew you had me   Cause of you all them chicks couldn't stand me   So why hurt you that's the question   It took this long for me to learn my lesson   Cause now all I want is peace and get drama   I finally understand the true meaning of karma      [Chorus: x2]      May the lord protect me as the world gets hectic my voice projected my life reflected      [Verse 2:]      Please baby forgive me    Mommy was young, mommy was to busy tryna have fun    And now I pat myself on the back for sending you back cause god knows I was better than that    To conceive then leave you the concept alone seems evil I'm trapped in my conscience   I adhear to the nonsense listened to people who told me I wasn't ready for you   But how the fuck would they know wat I was ready to do   And of course it wasn't your fault   It's like I feel you in the air, I hear you sayin mommy don't cry can't you see I'm right here    I gotta let you know what you mean to me when I'm sleeping I see you in my dreams wit me    Wish I could touch your little face or just hold your little hand    If it's part of gods plan, maybe we can met again            [Chorus: x2]      May the lord protect me as the world gets hectic my voice projected my life reflected
