Look
When you tell me pull up, I'm there
You know I'm real, that's real
So don't have me waitin' too long, yeah
Now we sittin' in my car
'Bout to take my shot like I'm sittin' at the bar
Now we layin' in the cut like hit men in the car
Ass so fat, it barely fit into the car
I'm lookin' at them lips while she hittin' the cigar
Tryna play cool but it's gettin' kinda hard
Nah, deadass though, it's gettin' kinda hard
She like, "Yeah, okay, all your shit been up to par
But just 'cause you want cookie don't mean you gettin' in the jar" (whoa)
I told her trust her gut then I hit her with a bar
If you don't trust the driver, stop gettin' in the car
She said I'm not a bird, didn't say you are
I'm just making wishes while we sittin' under stars
Only baddies in the Wraith sittin' with the R's (skrrt)
Besides, I hate birds, always shittin' on my car (skrrt)
You puttin' up a fight but I didn't come to spar (I know)
I'm not them fuckboys tryna hit you up tomorrow
To keep it real, I'm just tryna dead that
Show me what you think, let me see where your head's at, baby girl
When you hit me up, I'm there
You know I'm real, that's rare
I won't have you waitin' too long, nah, nah, nah
You know how to pull me up when I'm down
And that's why I'm still around
I won't have you waitin' too long
Now I'm just sittin' in my car, waitin' for you
Now I'm just sittin' in my car, waitin' for you
Nah, nah, nah, nah
And if I ever disrespected you
Apologies, I just can be a little skeptical
I never mean to be OD and I be stressed with you
I just be tryna OD when I have sex with you
I hope you don't go tellin' everybody 'bout it
I ain't afraid, I just don't wanna be around it
Yeah, I was raised up where they love to man down shit
Hit 'em up and then his body never found
My Louis belt connected to my pistol
My pistol connected to my hipbone
My hipbone connected to my you know
And you know, yeah, you know everybody I know
And now I wanna change locations
I don't wanna feel so basic lately
I been whippin' two doors, baby
I don't wanna use my spaceship, but baby
When you hit me up, I'm there
You know I'm real, that's rare
I won't have you waitin' too long, nah, nah, nah
You know how to pull me up when I'm down
And that's why I'm still around
I won't have you waitin' too long
Now I'm just sittin' in my car, waitin' for you
Now I'm just sittin' in my car, waitin' for you
Nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah
In DJ Envy’s “Sittin In My Car,” the singer is responding to a woman who has asked him to come over. The singer assures her that he is reliable, and he won’t keep her waiting too long. The two of them are now sitting in his car, which the woman has noted is too small to accommodate her large posterior. She asks if he is expecting anything physical as a result of this encounter, and he tells her that he is merely trying to get to know her better. He maintains that his motives are genuine, and he is not like the typical men who would try to hit her up the next day.
As their conversation progresses, the singer reveals that he has had trust issues in the past, but he wants to be more open with this woman. He hopes that she won't share their intimate moments with others. The singer admits that he is trying to break out of his routine of only going to certain places and attempting to live a more exciting life. As the song ends, the singer repeats the refrain that he won't keep her waiting too long, indicating that there may be future encounters between them.
The lyrics of “Sittin In My Car” highlight the struggles of forming genuine connections in a hookup culture. The singer is trying to convince the woman that his intentions are genuine and that he's not like other men.
