I know what you missing
She in love with living

Do that while I pick your brain
Baby swing my way
Baby want to slide to my mansion
She want me cuz I'm ballin like And1
If she don't get the dick she throw a tantrum
I'm a beat it like an african drum
I like the way you shake it girl you gifted
When I'm off the Henny I get wicked
Pull the panties to the side hit it from behind
She told me hold on I'm going for a ride
I'm a work you out like fitness
I ain't got a suit on but gonna give your ass the business

Double time run it back and do some overtime
When I was broke I got in and now I over grind
And you loyal and you smart
