Like Mike Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wanted it
I text my blood just 'cause she wanted it
I got some butterflies
I got 'em all, which one you wanna try? Yeah
I had it all
I wanted more I fought it but I let it go
Oh, I don't wanna feel like
I'm afraid of love
I put my business all alight and let it go
Hey

Thought you want it twice
Yeah, you say I'm fine but
Then you tell me lies but all of you
I see that I can't get enough
When I'm feeling low you bring me up, me up

I twist it and work it in slow
We just be moving so silent, so low
All these intentions, can't take it no more
I'ma take you down as soon as
We get through the door

Whoa, ooh i'm feeling you, you know
I like it slow, ooh
I'm feeling you, you know i like it slow

Thought you want it twice
Yeah, you say I'm fine but
Then you tell me lies but all of you
I see that I can't get enough
When I'm feeling low you bring me up, me up

Twisting and working real slow
We just be moving so silent so low
All these intentions, can't take it no more
I'ma take you down as soon as
We get through the door

Whoa, ooh i'm feeling you, you know
I like it slow, ooh
I'm feeling you, you know i like it slow

Thought you want it twice
Yeah, you say I'm fine but
Then you tell me lies but all of you




I see that I can't get enough
When I'm feeling low you bring me up, me up
