[Chorus] Can you keep up? Baby boy, make me lose my breath Bring the noise, make me lose my breath Hit me Hard, make me lose my (Hah Hah) Can you keep up? Baby boy, make me lose my breath Bring the noise, make me lose my breath Hit me Hard, make me lose my breath (Hah Hah) Oh I put it right there, made it easy for you to get to Now you wanna act like ya don't know what to do After I done everything that you asked me Grabbed you, grind you, liked you, tried you Moved so fast baby now I can't find you Oh I'm startin' to believe that I'm way too much for you All that talk but it seems like it can't come through All them lies like you could satisfy me, Now I see where believing you got me Gave you the wheel, but you can't drive me [Chorus] Oh Two things I don't like when I tryin' to get my groove Is a partna that meets me only half way and just can't prove Take me out so deep when you know you can't swim Need a lifeguard and I need protection So put it on me deep in the right direction Oh You understand the facts that I'm tryin' to give to you You movin' so slow like you just don't have a clue Didn't mama teach you to give affection? You're the difference of a man and an adolescent It ain't you boo, so get the steppin' [Chorus: x2] If you can't make me say ooh Like the beat of this drum Why you ask for some and you really want nothin' If you can't make me say ooh Like the beat of this groove You don't have no business in this here's your papers Baby you are dismissed, dismissed, dismissed, dismissed, dismissed, dismissed, dismissed [Chorus x2]
