Krizz Kaliko feat. Tech N9ne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

TECH to the N-9-N-E
I really hate when my lady ain′t around (si)
When she's away, I′m straight feelin' down
Yes my euphoria button's off for sure,
But when she comes through the door,
(We on the floor) We on the floor
Makin lovin so hot we so in tuned when we knock boots
You say you wanna get freaky, baby I′ll never stop you.
I need (need) your lovin′ and when it's away I′m CRUSHED!
More of you is a must and never can love me enough.

She got my nose too wide open, I'm hopin′
I can see the fire for the smokin'
Baby steady ready for the pokin′
Abstinence is revoltin'
On Cloud 9's where I′m floatin so,
Just stand in attention like super troopers
We off the Oompa Loompa
I wish this whole world was just the two of us
What we gon′ do wit' us?
Lovin is new to a few of us
But if they hate you to be beautimous
How much can they pay
To lay with an angel get off in the uterus?
Nada for grabs ever since I had us,
See they keep talkin′ it just don't matter (don′t matter!)
She loves, Kali, Baby, lay me down on the sheets, sweet half on the baby.
Crazy, insatiable, greatful, I'mma stay faithful, too low without you is too painful.
(Takes a puff)
One hit and you′ll forget about it, I'm numb
My pitfall's my withdrawl from you when I′m hum drum.

Hum Drum means she ain′t around, I feel like a loser
She the only one if she wasn't I would choose her
Lover girl make me feel super duper
Baby have me holla like
Hummina hummina hummina

Hum Drum she the reason for me breathin′
So done every day she be leavin'
She gimme love from the week to the weekend
Baby have me holla like
Hummina hummina hummina

Uhm uh, I be trippin off ya sorta like I kinda like ya,
Give me ya lips so it′ll turn into an overnighter,
I can't lose you. I′m a lover, for you, I'm a fighter
Stay with me we can make it right (make it riiiight),
Hand over keys to ya,
I'm on one knee for ya,
I′ll make a plead for ya,
L-O-V-E momma
Never second-guess the affection,
Comin′ in your direction,
You'll be my comforter, I′ll be your protection,
Oh I think she like me,
Better yet, I know
She be textin me messages endin in "X and O's"
When I′m in it she lets it go,
Reach her pinnacle and lets me know,
Can't keep my tentacles off her I mean I can′t let her go.
She's a dime, gets inside my mind every time
She know I love you when I'm from behind,
So if you got the love bucks threwin′
Watch what ya doin′ the beautiful ones'll hurt you everytime leave ya Hum Drum.

Hum Drum means she ain′t around, I feel like a loser
She the only one if she wasn't I would choose her
Lover girl make me feel super duper
Baby have me holla like
Hummina hummina hummina

Hum Drum she the reason for me breathin′
So done every day she be leavin'
She gimme love from the week to the weekend




Baby have me holla like
Hummina hummina hummina
