Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

girls it's been a minute since we talked
been on the same page
got me like damn
when you get mad you don't follow me
but I still got your Snapchat
If I hit you up girl you know the deal
you better hit a nigga right back
at least it's how it plays out in my mind
yeah, our sex is so crazy
we ain't out in about moving around
can't forget about a nigga
all the niggas up the heny
yeah we got it hit the spinning
when I drink the shit I swear
got my game and I'm screaming girl
it's funny that I run into you here girl
but you already know, you already know
you already know I'd be lying to you
If I tell you that I wasn't hoping I will see you again
girl come through, put your bag right here
I just wanna make sure that you're comfortable, yeah
remember I got the team on deck
girl your body so fine need a tec
and I hope you know all I want is you
all I want is you, it's been a minute
since the last time I talked to you
all I want is you, it's been a minute
it's been a minute since the last time
I fucked with you girl
young saucy nigga dipped in butter
know we ain't the same I am other
still ain't connected with another girl
messing new friends know the same girl
I'm in the club on some new pearl
'cause my old girl got a new girl
see it's on we can put it all together
I think you should call you girlfriend
that would make it better
we can do this together
I know I fucked up in the past but I'm better
it's hard to have love when you chasing that cheddar
you know it
but I still think about you girl
'cause I still feel like you're my girl
you know that
you already know I'd be lying to you
if I tell you that I wasn't hoping I will see you again
girl I come through, put your bag right here
I just wanna make sure that you're comfortable, yeah
remember I got the team on deck
girl your body so fine need a tec
and I hope you know all I want is you
all I want is you, it's been a minute
since the last time I talked to you
all I want is you, it's been a minute




it's been a minute since the last time
I fucked with you girl
