Bow my head when I think of my blessing
Yeah, Louis on chest, got Louis on luggage
Yeah, just left town she ain't got no baggage
Yeah, shorty don't stop, this 24/7
Yeah
Money I need, so it's money I take
She in my city, can't take no bait
Aye
Not much time but the head still great
Look at me now and she kiss my face
What they gone say?
Better think twice fore you step my way
Every step I take
Feel like Bobby, I feel like Mase
Feel like this when you live this great
We in the six for like six days
Touch back home and I feel like ace
Yeah, look at my trappin' again
I was just playing to win
I always move with the wind
Ain't got no time for direction
I'm your lil shorty's obsession
And she be calling me best friend
We don't expect nothing less than
Five star rates
Just left town, but it still might shake
What it's gonna take?
Playing my song, lil shorty wanna taste
Look at this face
How could she not wanna get me on base?
If it's a race, how could you not say the kid first place?
(Yeah, okay)
How could you not say the kid first place?
(Yeah, okay)
How could you not say the kid first place?
If it's a race, how could you not say the kid first place?
If it's a race, how could you not say the kid first place?
Yeah
Bow my head when I think of my blessing
Yeah, Louis on chest, got Louis on luggage
Yeah, just left town she ain't got no baggage
Yeah, shorty don't stop, this 24/7
Wonder where else I could take it
Eyes the top looking vacant
Me and KB going flagrant
Baby, I hope you can make it
Baby, I cannot be patient
Straight out the sticks
I'm tryna get to the green
PGA this is not entertainment
This not for a click
Shaking my head to the side
I'll probably die before I get my flowers from them
10 percent tint, yeah I'm in it
With her and her friend, now I'm grinning
Now he over there looking livid
Boy this is only a scrimmage
And I'm Andy Reid with the play call
Back 2 back foreigners, I gotta have motion
I can't feel the love, I just see the emotion
I cannot lose focus
Aye
Who that talking?
Who that talking?
Aye
Who that talking?
Who that talking?
Bow my head when I think of my blessing
Yeah, Louis on chest, got Louis on luggage
Yeah, just left town she ain't got no baggage
Yeah, just left town she ain't got no baggage
Yeah, just left town she ain't got no
