[Intro]
Confusing self-conscious with self-confidence
Confusing self-conscious with self-confidence
Confusing self-conscious with self-confidence, uh, yeah

[Verse 1]
Confusing self-conscious with self-confidence
So you monogamous, but body positive
Post pills you swallowing for a following
What he got to offer? He don't see the kids that he fathering
If you don't bother then, why you responding then?
Careful where you plant them seeds before you water them
Say you empower women (Ayy)
But don't acknowledge them (Nah, nah)
Feminism not what you embodyin'
You false hope, you false positive, uh
But eat your fruit and drink your water then, uh
I don't clique up, I don't clique up, nah
I don't clique up, I don't clique up, that's why
I don't clique up, I don't clique up, ayy
I don't click up (Nah)
I don't clique up 'cause y'all a kiss up
Rep your set, then y'all switch up and don't pick up
But real friends don't ask for favors (Nah)
Say you betrayed like you supposed to pay 'em
Copped the White House like you supposed to save 'em
Ungrateful, wonder how I Kanye'd 'em, han
It's pressure to be an icon baby, han
Stressin' to be an icon lately, but

[Chorus]
A lost soul can't lead the people, no
A lost soul can't lead the people, nah
A lost soul can't lead the people, no
A lost soul can't lead the people, uh

[Verse 2]
Confusing the celebrity with your integrity
You drinkin' Hennessy for your therapy
Can't get no peace of mind, can't get no serenity
But the public ain't the enemy, it's the inner me, so, uh
What you gonna leave with your legacy? Uh
It's like we don't believe in longevity, uh
I was overseas and seems that
We the only people with dreams of material things (Right)
Confusing self-conscious with self-confidence (Self-confidence)
Confusing self-conscious with self-confidence (Self-confidence)
Confusing self-conscious with self-confidence (Yeah)
We lying to ourself that's what the problem is (No, no)

[Outro]
A lost soul can't lead the people, no
A lost soul can't lead the people, no, no
A lost soul can't lead the people, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
A lost soul can't, lost soul

H.E.R is an acronym for the phrase Having Everything Revealed, which is used as a moniker by Gabriella Wilson. The singer, who is signed to RCA Records was known for keeping her real identity under

“The mystery is a metaphor of who I am, of who I was at the time of creating the project. I feel like oftentimes we don’t like to be open as people about out emotions or things that we are going through. At the time [of recording], I was very closed off except for when I was writing or when I was in the studio.”

First showing up on the scene at SoundCloud when she dropped her first EP in 2016, H.E.R., Vol 1, followed up with H.E.R., Vol. 2. Her music is mixed with inspirations of R&B, hip-hop, and soul.
