What up mama

Turn me up (uh)
A request for the volume of the music to be increased

She kinda pretty tho

She kinda fresh

My first thought

I need to put this girl in my video

But never mind that

I need to approach her

Show her that I’m interested
An intention to convey romantic interest

Before I’m sidetracked
A statement acknowledging the need to stay focused on the task at hand

Cause you can buy views

But you can’t buy back
A statement of recognition that certain opportunities cannot be regained

An opportunity to get a girls contact
A chance to obtain a woman’s phone number

Without a contract

You just a lame duck

Waiting to get chose in the club

By a good woman

A recognition that physical attraction is not the only factor in selecting a romantic partner

But I don’t see the signs

And when life gets real

Shoulder to cry on

I know a lot of dudes cold

But I’m one of the good ones

So trust in it

And I know a lot of guys
A continuation of the observation that many men lack emotional availability

Are trying to cut

But I’m a take the back-end
A statement indicating that the man is willing to take a lesser role in a relationship or career path

Give me my percentage
An expectation for just compensation

Im loving the way you move (I know, I know)
An expression of admiration and enjoyment towards the woman’s dance moves

I swear its something bout you
A statement indicating the woman’s unique and appealing qualities

That takes me away
An expression of being lost in the moment or captivated by the woman’s presence

Yo..

What up, What up world

Now I know I ain’t pushing a Lambo

But please baby girl just take this sample

We can sit till its dark and watch “Star Wars”
A suggestion for an activity the couple can enjoy together
