I wanna fly you to Tokyo Think it’d be dope just to get away Making withdrawals when I hit the bank Wait in the car like a getaway This is that 12 going on to one This is that one going on to two I’m not the type who be acting new My better nights are the ones with you Running the 40 with all the woes I spent some time voting at the polls Half of y’all corny like having rows Ringing my phone like it had a nose Better with time like a aging wine I got too hot like a Cajun dine She love the tree like she blowing pine I got a pay phone it’s full of dimes OHH When I go I know I I’m here for you You be over so High Through the roof When I go I know I I’m here for you You be over so High Through the roof I know that she gone be down for me Even when she’s not around for me I know that she’s still around for me I know that she’ll hold it down for me I got the pick like the lottery I’m tryna make it like pottery I saw my baby like watery Stealing my lives shawty robbery Working on TWENTY was really ducked off Got off my phone just to hide in my thoughts We all want fame I can tell that its sought All the things I need can’t really be bought All the things I need you find in a home Rich Nights don’t know what the hell I was on Wasn’t a misstep it still took me past I don’t regret anything from my past I had a thing for a girl in my class She wanted more it was moving too fast Say I’m young but I already feel old They used to try to put dates on my soul After that I think I got out the role I was too hurt spinning out of control I caught some girls who were trying to throw I know these names some are dying to know Losing all privacy lying in row That’s just a place I’m not trying to go I thought that I was in love with Danielle Looking back for me it’s harder to tell Not for the sake of a face or a tale Feelings removed so I don’t have to feel Some of y’all nosy like reading they mail Blind to the problems like needing some brail OHH When I go I know I I’m here for you You be over so High Through the roof When I go I know I I’m here for you You be over so High Through the roof
