Tonight
Oouu raise yo glasses high with me
And take a break from reality
Ain't gone be no problems here
Cause it's all friends and family
It's so nice to take a break from work
But that don't mean I don't got the weed
We gone party til the morning light
You can chill but you ain't gotta leave
I'm ready to drink I'm in need of this break
We start drinking early won't stop til it's late
The grill full of chicken and burgers and steak
She look good in that sundress
The wind make it sang
I'm tipsy and high it's a great way to live
The DJ is playing the song that won't end
The way that she moving its realin me in
So I'm tryna to leave with this girl and her friend
So I make my move so fast I ain't think
Now she dancing on me so hard I can't blink
You and me girl that's all that see
On me so hard I'm spilling my drink
Work hard play hard
I live by the motto
Weed in the air
Detroit Colorado
Liquor on chill
Shots out the bottle
Takin a lot of pictures won't remember this tomorrow
It's a celebration
Tonight
If nothin else we celebrating life
It's a celebration
Tonight
The bottles popped the cups are filled with ice
It's a celebration
Celebration
Celebration
It's a celebration
Celebration
Celebration
It's a celebration
Celebration
Celebration




It's a celebration
Tonight
