Keisha
Dave East Lyrics

I cannot believe it
Expressing disbelief at a situation

(Real life though) I cannot
Reiterating disbelief, emphasizing that this actually happened

Eyes open
Being alert and aware of surroundings

She from Jamaica, Queens, only came to Harlem to shop
Identifying the origin and purpose of Keisha's visit to Harlem

Her mother just got a divorce and her father a cop
Sharing details about Keisha's family background

I learned this about 10 minutes in the conversation
Implying intimacy in the conversation

I'm thinking I don't even know you, why that information?
Questioning the relevance of personal information

My head was racin', I'm pacin' back and forth
Feeling intense emotions, anxious and nervous

Asked her for her number, her name Keisha, nice to meet ya
Introducing themselves and exchanging contact information

She said she never fucked with nobody from Harlem
Informing that Keisha is not familiar with anyone from Harlem

I've got homies from south side, I figured I would call them
Deciding to involve his friends from a different area to gain information about Keisha

I found out exact locations and where she grew up
Gathering information about Keisha's background and whereabouts

Her mom's new boyfriend got some coke, then he blew up
Revealing Keisha's family member's drug involvement

She used to play with credit cards and line niggas at night clubs
Stating Keisha's previous involvement in illegal activities

Fucked a couple niggas but left 'em cause she ain't like love
Describing Keisha's promiscuous behavior

I was down in Flight Club, Keisha text me like "What you doing?"
Recalling a text conversation with Keisha

"I scuffed up my retro's, I'm bout to cop some new ones"
Keisha sharing her shopping experience with Dave

She said she at the Mandarin Oriental in Columbus Circle
Revealing Keisha's current location

She got some sour but she wanted purple
Keisha inquiring about Dave's access to different strains of marijuana

I told her later we can link up
Delaying the meeting with Keisha

I called my youngin Conner bring an eighth to her
Arranging for someone to deliver marijuana to Keisha

He plotting on taking her
Conner expressing his intentions with Keisha

Funny lil' nigga, but fuck it, that's how we raised
Acknowledging Conner's behavior as a consequence of their upbringing

If it ain't wifey than all the homies can play
Emphasizing that they don't get emotionally attached to women who are not their girlfriend/wife

Back to Keisha, she black but had them Spanish features
Commenting on Keisha's physical appearance

Five seven, most these niggas would plan to keep her
Appreciating Keisha's height and attractiveness

I got that drop from my homie that knew her, he went to school with her
Obtaining information about Keisha's personal life through a mutual friend

Said he used to be cool with her, but he ain't fuck her though
Providing context on their mutual friend's previous relationship with Keisha

Con' callin' me, I forgot to text him the address
Conner trying to reach Dave for delivery instructions

I'm going through some other shit, honestly got me mad stressed
Experiencing a stressful situation in his personal life

If Con' delivered that, we 'bout to meet
Anticipating a meeting with Keisha

I gotta a club tonight, told Keisha if she up I hit her when it's over
Dave making plans to meet Keisha later in the night

Now it's Rosé, Henny, Rosé, Henny
Listing the types of alcohol he is drinking

Strippers all over me, I ain't throwing a penny
Being surrounded by strippers, but not giving them any money

Got a text from Keisha, "I'm in room 17C
Receiving a message from Keisha with her current location

I know your with your homies now but later come and see me"
Keisha inviting Dave to visit her later

I'm Rollied out, sky dweller, the light hittin' it right
Describing his expensive watch and how it looks in the light

I'm hearing niggas talking like, "That's Dave East, that nigga nice"
People around him noticing and acknowledging him as a musician

Wayno told me 30 minutes, flat line, backwoods I pack mine
Referring to the time he has to perform; preparing to smoke marijuana

Unless I want 'em harsher, please don't no one bother
Requesting not to be disturbed while smoking

I called my driver and told him take me to midtown
Calling his driver to take him somewhere else

Had to stop for condoms 'cause raw ain't the way I get down
Stopping to purchase condoms for safe sex

He dropped me off, I told him "Park it and don't leave yet
Instructing the driver to wait for him

Let me see what this bitch about, something I gotta figure out"
Making a decision to investigate Keisha's true intentions

I'm in the 'tele, I hit the elevator blunted
Entering the hotel elevator while still under the influence of marijuana

Stumbling, just Hennessey and Rosé up in my stomach
Feeling unsteady due to alcohol consumption

Figure we fuck and then order some room service
Planning on having sex and then ordering food in the hotel room

I knocked twice, she opened the door but so nervous
Keisha seeming anxious when answering the door

Maybe I was buggin, I was drunk, she was ready though
Questioning if he was overthinking and drunk, but realizing Keisha was open to having sex

Came up out of everything, R. Kelly on the radio
Having sex while R&B music plays

Slim waist, Hershey chocolate skin, ass heavy though
Describing Keisha's body

On everything, I fucked this bitch delirious, shit Eddie know
Boasting about his sexual performance with Keisha

Henny taking over, we passed out, at least I did
Losing consciousness due to alcohol consumption

15,000 in my Balmain's, I'm lackin'
Noticing that his money and valuables are missing

I put my Rollie in the dresser with like four chains
Indicating where he left his expensive watch and chains

My ID and my bank cards, iPhone 6 to make calls
Noting what other items were stolen

Condom box of 3-pack, I used two of them
Realizing that condoms were also taken, and that he had sex twice

Brand new Fendi sneakers, the club just ruined 'em
Noticing his expensive shoes were ruined from the club floor

Something told me wake up, I checked the bed
Feeling a sense of unease and checking the bed for his valuables

Nothin' but pillows and cover, I had to shake my head
Realizing his suspicions were correct

I checked me jeans, every dollar gone, that's 15k
Discovering that all his money was also stolen

All my chains and my Rollie missing
Confirming that his valuable jewelry was taken

I put my shit on, looking for my phone, that shit was gone too
Trying to find his phone, but realizing that was also stolen

I'm ready to kill Keisha, what the fuck I'm gon' do?
Expressing anger and frustration towards Keisha

I told myself I wasn't drinking, why the fuck I get bent?
Regretting getting drunk despite telling himself not to

And how the fuck I get robbed?
Questioning how he was robbed

I ran out, my driver sleep, I woke him up like "You ain't see that bitch
Waking his driver up and informing him of Keisha's involvement

Brown skin, thick, probably moving on some schemin' shit?"
Describing Keisha's appearance and motives

He telling me that he was sleeping, waiting on my phone call
Explaining why the driver didn't notice Keisha

I cannot believe this shit, can't wait until I see this bitch
Expressing desire for revenge

This for every nigga that be slippin' 'cause he think he rich
Warning others who think they are invincible due to wealth

Keisha you a sneaky bitch, called shooter I'ma need the grip
Insulting Keisha and calling for someone to harm her

Fuck
Exclaiming in frustration and anger
