hide and seek
Def Manic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl I gotta lay you down and Ima come back around that dinner too,
While I'm gone with another girl, don't wanna be with you,
Fuck it, I ain't really down for love, just want a friend with benefits,
Most probably lookin innocent in the whole club,
I don't love you, I just love your pussy,
Keeps attracting me back, it's hard for you to push me,
Remember the first time that I met you at a show,
One song you complained, weren't really feeling my flow,
I got mad and backlashed and I called you a hoe,
Won't ever regret that shit 'cause I'm not dealing with the pressure,
No Mac 11 on the dresser, still have to undress her,
And now she wanna cry again over stupid fucken personal issues,
I got money now I don't even need to diss you, just dismiss you.
[Chorus:]
Wanna do (like)
Lay you down (and like)
Mess around (like)
All night long, girl let's get it on,
My secret lover, mystery girl,
I wanna play hide and seek,
Maybe the streak between the sheets (2x)
[Verse 2:]
Dam it's a lil too late to deal with what's in fucken front of me,
Finally seen the gentlemen in me just fucken pass horribly,
Now I need to step back and understand this shit is real,
Wasting time with you when I could be with another record deal,
Never really knew I could be with you till I hit my early teens,
Just a lil overcompensating with the money and the dream,
I believed in you and you always knew where the fuck I have been,
Part of The scheme that I gotta plot, had it strung out on top,
Now I got writer's block in the back of the parking lot,
Always thought that love was fake,
Just wanna fuck around on the first date,
She was distance with my team,
Bumping so fresh and so clean,
Had to utilize my dream, praise Herc we got you in our prayers,
Pun gone, still becoming players in this cold world, Cole World did it, rapping linguistics,
And understanding women is harder then understanding life,
Never works, leaves you broke as fuck with no wife, damn that's right.
