Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my missus
You say I'm a player, and I say that you trippin'
'Cause when we together, it don't make a difference
You givin' me butterflies, ain't talking 'bout kisses
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my missus
You say I'm a player, and I say that you trippin'
'Cause when we together, it don't make a difference
I told her, "mi amor, mi amor"
Whatcha leavin' for, you leavin' for?
I'm tryna see for sure, to be for sure
That you're the one that's right for me, you know
'Cause I'm a first class nigga, overseas we go
Can't have no burnt-out biddy tryna keep my soul
'Cause they see that we poppin' and got what they don't
Keep a piece 'cause a problem is not what you want
You givin' me butterflies, ain't talking 'bout kisses
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my missus
You say I'm a player, and I say that you trippin'
'Cause when we together, it don't make a difference
You givin' me butterflies, ain't talking 'bout kisses
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my missus
You say I'm a player, and I say that you trippin'
'Cause when we together, it don't make a difference
I hear the things you tellin' me
But everything ain't nothin' no more
I'm searching for a remedy, some empathy
But never got none
So who (who), are you (are you)
To tell me what I felt was nothin'?
You (you), can't choose (can't choose)
The way I should express my lovin'
You givin' me butterflies, ain't talking 'bout kisses
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my missus
You say I'm a player, and I say that you trippin'
'Cause when we together, it don't make a difference
You givin' me butterflies, ain't talking 'bout kisses
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my missus
You say I'm a player, and I say that you trippin'
'Cause when we together, it don't make a difference
Yeah, mmm
I ain't tryna do wrong but the space is gray
And I know you hang on to the words I say
I ain't tryna look dumb 'cause that would make your day
So I'ma look both ways before you drive me cray
But then I also been right like when I book that flight
And you was happier that mornin' than you was last night
So let's keep on rollin' up, rainbows over there
Butterfly doors so you know it's us (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
I should've learned from all them lil' hoes that I trust
But I didn't, so I guess I gotta focus up
Who we kiddin'? I'm that nigga and they know what's up
You say you like my vibe and my energy
I say you annoying and it's killin' me
Constant with the questions, baby, why you always drillin' me?
Spoken from the heart, so I sincerely hope you feelin' me
You say you like my vibe and my energy
I say you annoying and it's killin' me
Never had a problem 'til you started actin' industry
Find the one that's supposed to make the hits, then why you hittin' me?
Hittin' me, hittin' me
Just hit me up right now
I'm at the club right now
I'm too turnt up right now
You know it's goin' down
Turn me up, turn me up
Turn me up, turn me up
Oh, mmm, mmm
