Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, yeah
Twisted, twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
Twisted, twisted I'm getting twisted
That's what I do, do
Don't get it twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
That's what I do, do
Don't get it twisted no
Here we go, everybody go on, hear me flow
In the uk like cheerio
I switched up scenario
My momma told me education was the only route
Now I'm so jezzy, unlce Phil shall probably throw me out
It's what I do, don't you know this is what I does
... Apple juice until I get a buzz
We're about to pour it out I hope they're ready for the brand new flow
And I think they're stressed out
Yeah, they can use a few hugs
I've been figuring out For a couple of days
Haters will always be stuck in their ways
Cause I'm up in the shade
Thinking of ways to make everyone part of my company pay
The love we have saved, what we have picked to be
Yeah, everything that will get people amazed Chiddy wowin on them
Yeah, look at where I am, uh!
F**k these n****s, I know we're ill!
Recognize this, they know we're real
Three stacks in my jeans, no e-pill
Hot I know how to go, we're chill
It's the Feel, b***h, what I rap on
From the belly and the beast gets smacked on
And I do this all day, get lifted
We're on a... Don't get you twisted.
Chorus:
Twisted, twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
Twisted, twisted I'm getting twisted
That's what I do, do
Don't get it twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
Don't get it twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
Hey, cheer!
And I'll be candle lit, handle it
Rip a show up in Los Angeles
Flip a beat that we're sampling it
Please don't think that we planned For this
Yeah, I'm just...
Smoke some s**t to examine it
Oh, you and us? Not a problem, here's your laminate
I lose it, she choose it for the beat up that I abuse it
And always stay on some bullshit
Late night, be riding, cruising
And I make some gum music
On my prince s**t, sky high chilling in the grand room
What's the pass for wi fi?
And I try to tell 'em that they're wrong for this, believe it
Once this drops we'll be back But for now my d**k is grieving
Used to be asked what my purpose was
And couldn't pick a reason
I live A Swelly Life,
I'll be your host for this evening
What do I take of this, everything ain't what you think it is
Winning - I'm on the brink of it and I'm trying to get as much to...
And this is what you call a buzz
Breakfast, you should join the club
And I do this all day, get lifted
... Don't get you twisted.
Chorus:
Twisted, twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
Twisted, twisted I'm getting twisted
That's what I do, do
Don't get it twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
Don't get it twisted, twisted
That's what I do, do
