Baby I'm Yours
8.3 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not your boyfriend, baby,
I ain't your cute little sex toy,
I'm not your lion or your tiger,
Won't be your nasty little boy,
I'm not your boyfriend, baby,
I can't grant your every wish,
I'm not your knight in shining armor,
So, I just leave you with this kiss

You can catch me on the speed train,
Beeper in a three-way,
Shinin' with the gleam chain,
And your honey givin' me brain,
You can catch me watchin' AI,
Mellow it's game time,
Pinkie with the same shine,
Pitbull and a canine

You know I rep' this shit,
I gots it tatted on my skin,
If you fuckin' with my city,
Then you fuckin' with my kin,
You know I rep' this shit,
I got my hands up on your chest,
Motherfuckers best believe it,
That you're fuckin' with the best

I'm not your boyfriend, baby,
I ain't your cute little sex toy,
I'm not your lion or your tiger,
Nah, nah, won't be your nasty little boy,
I'm not your boyfriend, baby,
Yeah, I can't grant your every wish,
Yeah, I'm not your knight in shining armor,
So, I just leave you with this kiss

Kill the lights,
These children learn from cigarette burns, fast cars, fast women, and cheap drinks
It feels right,
All these asphyxiated, self-medicated, take the white pill, you'll feel alright

"Realize girl that my faith is kind of torn
Watch your step girl
Because my heart is weak and worn
So won't you please be careful, I'm fragile...
I can't imagine the damage
I have to handle
If you hurt me one more time...Please be mine. "

I shared this song with my man a few nights ago. Seven years strong next month.... Baby I'm yours. 🤗
