Kid Quill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lets do it
Been a minuite but im back with that rap shit
The mixtape flow, you can find it on [?]
And Everything i do, i do for real, aint no practice
I dont dance in the booth but you know i be snappin'
Hol' up
Im going ghosting the verbs
I get paid for my words, all my nouns and my verbs
These labels wanted a hit, I'll hit them right where it hurts
They said the radio dont like it when i curse, but f*ck it I'm coming right back
Ok you knew that I will
Got a sound, been around and they doubted me still
I used to be the kid in college that was busy with music
But f*ck it i done graduated dog, look what im doing
I think I found a song that you like
Yeah I found it on a blog last night
Yeah its new, it ain't gotta lot views
So imma queue it up and imma show you what it sounds like
Ok I an't tryin' drive, im tryin' ride along
So give me your phone and let me play a few songs
You ain't gotta know them, just fake it and play along
What else am i to do when im sitting shotgun with you
Man I'm a shot gun DJ
Same song replay
Big pun, Outckast, 3 steps, Kanye
The radio ain't got a thing on a playlist
So thanks for letting me play this
Ok I grew up with [?]
And i look up the chance
Im trying to listen to [?]
Please dont f*ck up my plans
And if they want it I got it
Im gonna meet they demands
I do whatever i want
You do what ever you can
Ok, now go get your man i heard he been on the chips
I mean a few times fine but he stay on the [?]
Oh yeah, uh
Im so photogenic, I'll send a selfie to your bitch with my homies all in it
Somebody take one, ok this sh*t ain't no regular
If it ain't bout' busyness, then donate on my cellular
I keep it close knit, ok I dont know what to tell you bruh
I know you got a jumpstart but im so far ahead of ya
I think i found a song that you like
Ok I found it on a blog last night
And its new, it ain't gotta lot views
But imma queue it up and imma show you what it sounds like
Ok I an't tryin' drive, I'm tryin' ride along
So give me your phone and let me play a few songs
You ain't gotta know them, just fake it and play along
What else am I to do when im sitting shotgun with you
Man im a shot gun DJ
Same song replay
Big pun, Outckast, 3 steps, kanye
The radio ain't got a thing on a playlist
So thanks for letting me play this
Ok can I get some t pain with some fifty
Can I get usher with some gezey
Can I get some jaroul with some chingey
Baby can I get a request, yeah
Can I, can I get some acon with some nelly
A little bit of shady and whezy and R Kelly
I burn a whole cd for no-one but you and me
And its about time that we spin it
I wanna make love in this cup
Are you ready
Yeah like kids try steal your heart
Noone really had it ready
No-body wanna see us together, but it dont matter no
Baby girl whats your name, let me talk to ya, let me buy you a drink
Aint no-body don't ask me, im just so fresh, so clean
And it all falls down
If you wanna go then take a ride with me
