When did you know that you was special? Everybody know you special, icon, all that stuff. When did you really know you was special?
Thank God, first of all. But um, my grandma wake me up at like 10, 11:00 p.m. when I'm, I have school the next day. I'm like 7, 8 years old. She waking me up and I have to come up, I have to go in the living room and I need, I have to perform. And I don't have to, I can't. I'm not about to go up there and do nothing. I've been practicing at school with some play we working on. Was it the vibes, you know? She want me to do that in the daytime just for her, cuz she want me to work on.
When she come wake me up at 9:00, 10 p.m. and I got to go up there and I got to do sing songs that they enjoy and I got to do the dance moves that they know. And I'm only seven, 8 years old. And that's when, when I would always go lay back down after that whole event, you know? And they, I'm walking back to that to my room and I can hear them, you know, they laughing. I can hear one or two of them say, "Girl, that boy know he's stum." You can hear some. When I would always lay my head back down, I will always know that.
