Anything she want for some kisses
I'm cookin' for her when she gets hungry
All she doin' is actin' like she want me
She cuttin' off all my homies
Even all my other ronis
She ain't even my main lady
See I been thinkin' bout it lately
Man she really don't deserve me
All she wanna do is hurt me
So I gotta get away from her
But now I'm leaving quickly
Before she come and try to kick me
And I'm takin' everything with me
Well, it all come down to how

But now I'm doin' what I want to
With nobody tellin' me what I'm gon' do
And I'm feelin' so free
With nobody but me, uh
Now I can handle all my business
All of my fellas, can I get a witness?
But I'm feelin' kinda lonely
On top of that, I'm kinda horny
Man, I gotta get back to her
But now I'm leaving quickly
Before she come and try to kick me
And I'm takin' everything with me
Well, it all come down to how
I'm sprung

Now you're sprung and I told you
S-P-R-U-N-G
Now you see she got you
Got you
Got you
Got you
She got you
Got you

"I'm Sprung" by T-Pain is a song that talks about how a woman has taken him over and has him doing things he would never do. The chorus implies that he's in love with this woman and that she has him fully under her spell. The way she's got him feeling is taking a toll on him, as he's not even himself anymore. In the first verse, T-Pain explains that he's doing things for this woman like dishes and cooking food when she's hungry. He indicates that he feels like she's using him and that she's even disconnected him from his friends. In the second verse, T-Pain says that he's left her and is now alone. However, he acknowledges that he's lonely and horny without her. He feels he needs to get back to her, although at the same time, he believes that she's only using him and making him feel unworthy.

@Lil Wazy Don't know nothing yet about taxes, life, bills, taxes removed from checks...still have free books from highschool, possibly free laptops now, no major responsibilities.
16. Baby
Still young and a TEEN.
What I'd do to go back to then.
They have no idea. They can try to be as grown and act grown because tiktok and social media tells them to. But, they are still minors and children.
Even if you're 18,19, or 20 you still have so much fuxking shit to learn. Don't matter how grown or fast you act.
Reality hits you, and suddenly you're faced with adulthood and the facts of life.
Stop trying to grow teens up faster than they need to. Allow them to have their innocence and playfulness. Because according to Gen Z, that's apparently rare.
Everyone wants to be 25, but without the responsibilities. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Everyone take a minute to respect T-Pain. Only rapper I know who can use autotune correctly lmao
Erik Orehek
Yes indeed. in that Vlad tv interview he mentioned he Studied the dynamics of it. he broke it down well
Jamal
123 456 singer*
CPGoat #3
hes not a rapper
Joseph Blanchard
You ever heard/watched his NPR TINY DESK CONCERT from a few years ago here on YouTube?? He used zero autotune and sung it live, and all the songs were actually BETTER than the original hits from back in the day where he was using autotune on them too.
Alex Villalobos
123 456 Travis scott uses autotune pretty good in my opinion

Doesn't it just break your heart when you listen to all of the old songs and remember how life was when they came out. Life used to be so simple and so fun in the early 2000's. Don't you just wish you could go back and be a kid again or a teenager again and grow up without being addicted to technology and having it constantly in your face, and being able to go outside or interact with other people without having to check your phone. I miss those days. I wish we could go back. Sometimes the music is all we have.

The nostalgia is almost heartbreaking! If I could live in my memories, I’d be a very happy person!
Gibson Abenaab
You couldn’t have said it any better
Wendy Coronado
@Jeseikh Jei 😭 I was 17 and life was so good. We made decisions and now we're here. Adulting. Take me back!
