Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just think of me one mo' time
Tired of you crossin' my mind
Hating on this love, yeah I'm blind
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of us one mo' time
In my head you reside
Memories never lie
Using drugs just to hide
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of me one mo' time
Tired of you crossin' my mind
Hating on this love, yeah I'm blind
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of us one mo' time
In my head you reside
Memories never lie
Using drugs just to hide
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of me one mo' time
Sigo pensando en ti
Ya te cansaste de mi
Nunca preocupado de otra
Solo dime que se nota
Sigo pensando en ti
Ya te cansaste de mi
Nunca preocupado de otra
Solo dime que se nota (yeah, yeah)
Tell me how it is (woah)
Never gave a fuck
I always had the go
Whenever I'm leaving you always want some mo'
I know
I keep on fucking with them hoes
One day you gon' find me
But I got to go
Just think of me one mo' time
Tired of you crossin' my mind
Hating on this love, yeah I'm blind
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of us one mo' time
In my head you reside
Memories never lie
Using drugs just to hide
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of me one mo' time
Tired of you crossin' my mind
Hating on this love, yeah I'm blind
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of us one mo' time
In my head you reside
Memories never lie
Using drugs just to hide
Just think of me one mo' time
Just think of me one mo' time
Mami, quitate la ropa
Tu ya sabes que me gusta verte toda
Esos labios, sabes que me enamoran
Yo sin ti, no se que aria ahora
Tu me encantas, tu no eres como otra
Muy sensilla, la nena prefiere bota
Lamborghini porque sabe gosar
Yo no que aria ahora
Chica rica, ella es muy buena de onda
Si tu eres pobre, ah ella no le importa
Lo que quiere es que le digas que te importa
Si no eres fiel, ella misma te corta
El cara libro me dice como se porta
Ah mi gusta como ella se suporta
Nunca anda preocupada ella de otra
Si te metes conmigo, mami te orca
Sigo pensando en ti
Ya te cansaste de mi
Nunca precupado de otra
Solo dime que se nota




Sigo pensando en ti
Sigo pensando en ti
