Lyrics to Lover Not A Fighter by Mista Cookie Jar & The Chocolate Chips

I got swag to click my clack
And I don’t back down from nada.
But trust these words
Now, first things first.
See I’m a lover not a fighter.
Ain’t too cool to break lame rules.
Cuz I know new school’s the brighter.
But old school eyes
and wisdom’s why
I be a lover not a fighter. Oh!

Kid, try to step to me?
I try to put it down gent-a-ly
If ya can’t GET with it
Ya gots to STICK with it.
Nothing comes with e-a-s-e.
Ya gotta learn how to spell out ya dreams.
Don’t just leave it for the birds to sing.
Cuz in high definition ya can’t help but listen.
No one messing with a melody.

Becuz, I got swag to click my clack
And I don’t back down from nada.
But trust these words
Now, first things first.
See I’m a lover not a fighter.
Ain’t too cool to break lame rules.
Cuz I know new school’s the brighter.
But old school eyes
and wisdom’s why
I be a lover not a fighter.

So now, here’s the deal.
Ya gotta stop ur whinin’.
(Just stop ur whinin’.)
And I mean, for real!
There’s no use for cryin’.
(No use for cryin’.)
Ya got to be a lover or be quiet.
(Be a lover or shut up!)
I tell ya now ya got to feel it,
baby, feel it! U can’t fight it!

Ava:
When I was just a kid I wouldn’t make my bed.
I would throw my stuffed dino at my brother’s head.
But don’t call me evil. He would throw em back.
Poor mom, she would almost have a heart attack.
My best friend, Mikyla–I call her sister.
One time she tried to pocket all my Polly Pockets.
So I pinched her. (Oh no!)
I can’t say I wouldn’t do it again.
But now I’m older. And now I know how to be a friend. Yep!
So now I’ve learned how to play the game. Yep!
Now big sista gotta lead the way. Yep!
Show my brotha how to make the change
to be a lover on the day to day.
Face to face, we all just the same inside.
We show responsibility to build our pride.
Stay proud! No reason why u should hide it.
Sing loud! Gotta feel it, baby, u can’t fight it. Cmon!

So now ya feelin’ like your soul is free
cuz u been hustling like an athlete.
Now that u feel strong go sing ur song
cuz little homie u put in your t-i-m-e.
Sometimes u gotta fight for peace,
but when ur strong u just love and lead.
So all u boys and girls go show this world
just how the good life’s meant to be.

Now lookie here, becuz
I got swag to click my clack
And I don’t back down from nada.
But trust these words
Now, first things first.
See I’m a lover not a fighter.
If u can’t make peace with this funk
Ya better pump that sanitizer.
It’s not just words behind these germs.
See I’m a lover not a fighter.

Now, here’s the deal. Ya gotta stop ur whinin’. (Just stop ur whinin’.)
And I mean, for real! There’s no use for cryin’. (No use for cryin’.)
Ya got to be a lover or be quiet. (Be a lover or shut up!)
I tell ya now ya got to feel it, baby, feel it! U can’t fight it!
