Lyrics to Chaila
I do what I want with my pronouns
Keep it low key on my profile
I raise the bar when I come through
You already know it’s gonna go down
My name’s not that hard to pronounce
Pre-K, it’s not profound
C-H-A-I-L-A
Sound the words out

It’s not Chillay
It’s not Chilala
Not a hard pill to swalla
Chai-li or Chalia
Chia, Chilla, Dilla
That’s not my name
Say my name

I’ve got drive, don’t need gas
I wanna go far, not go fast
Chemical X when I power up
Turn back now? Hard pass
I don’t go Dutch when I checkmate
I keep the banner on my chest plate
All these takes, so lukewarm
You should just say it with your chest, mate

It’s not Chillay
It’s not Chilala
Not a hard pill to swalla
Chai-li or Chalia
Chia, Chilla, Dilla
That’s not my name
Say my name

Broke cycles every time that I spoke so I took the training wheels off
Tour de France, covered new ground for all the hope that pain cost
Not all who wander lose their faith and not all who wander are lost
I know my heart and I know my name and I know the path that I walk

I work this hard so I can harvest
Won’t pick my fruit from the low branches
I don’t know you, man, but I know dances
Pre the journey, who’s gonna stop this?
I don’t need gifts if you look Musky
Stay philanthro-pissed
Don’t need your Concern if you’ll look at me
And see a Trócaire kid
Flow on lough like Derg
Don’t care what you heard
My word is my bond
And my name is my word
The soul of my world
And

It’s not Chillay
It’s not Chilala
Not a hard pill to swalla
Chai-li or Chalia
Chia, Chilla, Dilla
That’s not my name
Say my name

C-H-A-I-L-A
C-H-A-I-L-A
C-H-A-I-L-A
C-H-A-I-L-A
C-H-A-I-L-A
C-H-A-I-L-A
C-H-A-I-L-A
C-

I do what I want with my pronouns
Keep it low key on my profile
I raise the bar when I come through
You already know it’s gonna go down
My name’s not that hard to pronounce
Pre-K, it’s not profound
C-H-A-I-L-A
Sound the words out

It’s not Chillay
It’s not Chilala
Not a hard pill to swalla
Chai-li or Chalia
Chia, Chilla, Dilla
That’s not my name
Say my name

It’s not Chillay
It’s not Chilala
Not a hard pill to swalla
Chai-li or Chalia
Chia, Chilla, Dilla
That’s not my name
Say my name
