No Way Out
JD & the FDCs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gone head gone let my hands rub your feet,
Had a long day at work time to sit back and release,
Like there's traffic on the road, we aint playing in the streets,
Want to ride then cop the keys, cop the keys
(Cause they ain't stopping no way)

They can't stand we surviving so long,
Day one rider my life and my zone
Bitches stay talking they just eying your throne,
Taking you on, but they can't cause we ain't stopping no way

Come on ma, now ain't no wasting yo time,
She let her fingers do the talking while they linking in mine
She said "boy the way your tongue work you steady making me cry"
I'm just trying to keep the balance, see the fire in your sign
It's ok ma, ain't taking no days off,
Come and show me how that gym membership that you got pays off
When you squatting your ass off but yo booty stay soft,
Say fuck you to your old niggas cause we know it's they loss
(Cause they ain't stopping no way)

They can't stand we surviving so long,
Day one rider my life and my zone
Bitches stay talking they just eying your throne,
Taking you on, but they can't cause we ain't stopping no way

Fuck with me, I'll buy the shots,
The way you moving baby make me wanna tie the knot,
Let's get that second round started if you're tired or not
It don't matter if you moving baby I'ma find the spot
Graduated College and got a degree in finance
Let me take round the world cause I wanna show off your fine ass
Yo energy is potent, come and show me your vibe,
I see it in your eyes you realize
(Cause they ain't stopping no way)

They can't stand we surviving so long,
Day one rider my life and my zone
Bitches stay talking they just eying your throne,
Taking you on, but they can't cause we ain't stopping no way

They can't stand we surviving so long,
Day one rider my life and my zone
Bitches stay talking they just eying your throne,
Taking you on, but they can't cause we ain't stopping no way

All's well end's well but them niggas can't tell
They ain't tryna lock you down, they been putting up the bail
Can't you tell can't you tell ma, words can sell
They ain't Blu Cantrell cause they ain't hitting you up




Cause they ain't hitting you up
Cause they ain't hitting you up
