[Chorus]
I know you think you got it together,✦ player
But fuck the bird you with
And listen✦ close to the makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
Listen✦ close to the makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
There's✦ always✦ one thing wrong and you wish that you could switch
Or fix, while you shapin'✦ every✦ curve and hips
You heard of this?
The makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
[Verse 2]
I stitch 'em together✦ then I kiss 'em forever✦
These surgical gloves✦ are made of love, couldn't be better✦
Four cycles✦ of blood, child birth first
Menstrual✦ cycle, last menstrual✦ cycle, then death
That's four, so I guess the rebirth is the fifth
Put 'em together,✦ that's a genius,✦ a slut and a chef
Holdin'✦ the scalpel while cutting the flesh
Heavy✦ bleeding, so I need suction, it's such a mess
If she survives she'll be sucking me next
Dark nipples on her D-cup breasts
So I could titty✦ fuck while she do my taxes✦ for the IRS
So I could just relax, shit, by now I'm blessed
I'm her daddy,✦ I'm her Messiah, I'm God
'Cause I injected obedience and loyalty in her heart
Know you mad 'cause you with a bitch that nag you to death
I smack mine on the ass as she breathe her first breath
[Chorus]
I know you think you got it together,✦ player
But fuck the bird you with
And listen✦ close to the makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
Listen✦ close to the makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
There's✦ always✦ one thing wrong and you wish that you could switch
Or fix, while you shapin'✦ every✦ curve and hips
You heard of this?
The makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
[Verse 3]
Gimme Sade's✦ mystique, she gotta✦ know her way in the streets
Like Billie Holiday in Harlem✦
Body✦ from Ki Toy Johnson and Kenya✦ Moore in Apple Bottoms
Maya Angelou's brain and some groove from Terry✦ McMillan
Them Angelina Jolie lips, Angela✦ Davis, Sista✦ Souljah's wit
Helping me load clips
Some words from a pimp was, "Nas, it just don't exist"
But homes✦ is twisted, a home ain't a home without the missus✦
All the girls that I named✦ are queens
No disrespect but I need me someone to disappear✦
Reappear✦ like, "I Dream of Jeannie", whenever✦ I want
I think I met her, it's on, forever✦ I'll flaunt
[Chorus]
I know you think you got it together,✦ player
But fuck the bird you with
And listen✦ close to the makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
Listen✦ close to the makings✦ of a perfect✦ bitch
There's✦ always✦ one thing wrong and you wish that you could switch
Or fix, while you shapin'✦ every✦ curve and hips
You heard of this?
The makings✦ of the perfect✦ bitch

"I stitch 'em together then I kiss 'em forever"

① Literal act of sewing or constructing a partner (Frankenstein narrative)② Metaphorical act of 'building' a partner's personality or behavior through emotional conditioning

"Holdin' the scalpel while cutting the flesh"

① Literal surgical procedure/body modification② Metaphorical act of reshaping the partner's identity or 'cutting' away unwanted personality traits

"I'm her daddy, I'm her Messiah, I'm God"

① The literal, distorted power dynamic of an abusive relationship② The god-complex of a creator who dictates the existence and purpose of his own creation

Exceptional rhythmic control and multi-syllabic density

Unflinching, disturbing imagery that serves the narrative theme

Strong structural arc from 'construction' to 'deification'

Extreme subject matter may limit accessibility

Occasional reliance on shock value over cohesive metaphorical depth

Vocabulary choices prioritize anatomical grit over linguistic complexity
