[Verse 1]
Time too precious and my patience thin
My mind and my soul is the weapon
And every failure was a lesson
It's time to stop blocking these blessings
See, I just wanna grow into my greatness
I wish I had the time that you've taken

[Chorus]
'Cause I got needs, yeah, I got needs
I want war, but I need peace
And they kept on calling me crazy
But maybe that's how God made me
Take a look at what you made me
Calling me crazy, that's what you made me

[Verse 2]
Look at the mess I got myself in (Ooh)
I don't wanna get numb to the feeling
Will all of my sins be forgiven?
Hope you pin me to the wall like a painting (Ooh)
I just want a kiss on my neck bone
I just want some head and a few wet kisses
To make it all better
Ripped up my old love letters
Tick tock, you got me fed up
Used up your chances, held my heart for ransom
And now a new man treat me better than you did
Get my pussy wetter than you did
You know it could have been you and me
That's all that I wanted it to be
That's all that I wanted it to be

[Chorus]
But I got needs, yeah, I got needs
I want war, but I need peace
And you kept on calling me crazy
But, baby, that's what you made me
Take a look at what you made me
Calling me crazy, that's what you made me

Karly-Marina Loaiza (born July 17, 1994), better known as her stage name Kali Uchis, is a Colombian-American singer, songwriter, record producer, music video director, and fashion designer.

Sporting a 50’s aesthetic (from which Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald are cited influences), Kali’s brand of art pop spans the length of many genres of soul (doo-wop, reggae, funk, quiet storm, psychedelia) with a Latina twist.

Kali grew up playing saxophone and piano; she was introduced to music production and video editing while she was in high school and released her debut project Drunken Babble in 2012. Since then, Kali has gone on to release a 2015 EP, Por Vida, and her debut album, Isolation, in 2018.
