Can I?
Deema Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Hello
(Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit) what, what, what
(Can I get a little bit) check
(Can I get a little bit) itโ€ฒs Deema man
You already know what we're about to do man
Weโ€ฒre from the South East man
Sit easy, ridin' thing right about now
Hold tight, Don Valentino
That's check and you already know that by now though, uh

Young boy from the South-East
Donโ€ฒt chat to me with your little mouthpiece
I wish it in hash rocks, in and out cheese
Fit black smoke, Bobby Brown brown teeth

We can get down if youโ€ฒre down to your feet
Down to the earth if you sound really neat
I be round to your house, I be down for sec
If your girl's there then Iโ€ฒll get your girl for the neck, yo

Just joking, ah
It's thought-provoking
Everybodyโ€ฒs on me, feels like they're choking
Just low, man
Leave me alone kid (leave me alone kid)

Look, Iโ€ฒm on my own thing
Spittin' on the cobras, I ain't even wrote it
Howโ€ฒd you feel about that?
Little nigga rappers, wanna come around and
Chat shit to Deema
Wanna ask me, in my DMs for a feature

Calling me for promo
Telling me that your boy, get this for the low though
Honestly low bro
It werenโ€ฒt that, I don't want that, yo dumb
But most man they be like yo, yo, Deems, Deems, Deems, Deems
Yo, look, check, yo, can I get a little bit? (Can I?)

Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit
Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit
Can I get a little bit
Yo, gimme some of that man
Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit
Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit, little bit
Can I get a little bit, little bit more

Young boy from the South-East
Donโ€ฒt chat to me, you know nothing about me
Green 'til I graft, hill in a white-tee
Ice cold pole in the sunshine sweet

Being in the blue in a blue side beam
Seeing you if I see you, hi G
If I see you if I see you, hi
If you see me and I see you, say hi, yo

Hey, what about, what about tracks man, quick, knock โ€ฒem out
What about tax man, quick, knock him out
If it's not facts man, itโ€ฒs not allowed
And that's that, yeah, my cat's black like my dadโ€ฒs fam

Iโ€ฒm half white, and half that like my dad's cam
Iโ€ฒm out runnin' with my cuzzies or the lads hang
Everytime I hear somebody ask if I want some
You already know Iโ€ฒll turn up, can I get a little bit
Can I get a little bit, what

Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit (okay man)
Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit (okay, okay, you already know)
Can I get a little bit, can I get a little bit (it's Deema man)
Can I get a little bit (Don Valentino)
Can I get a little bit, little bit more





Let me just get that little bit more if thatโ€ฒs alright
Jump it again, yeah
