Lyfe JenningsÅÊ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah
Lights
Camera

She's on the dance floor grindin'
Poppin' it and riding, her body got a mind of it's own
She bend over like shot gun, bullet in the chamber.
Baby girl is out of control
She going in like a scuba diver
Hot like a forest fire, sexy like you wouldn't believe
She say she wouldn't do me bad. I'm glad, I'm glad, I'm glad.
It would be my pleasure girl to sweat out your weave.

[Chorus]
La la la la la la ok .
This is what it feels like in the spotlight.
La la baby
Bumpin' bodies all night
In the spotlight.

She's like a spaceship rockin'
Fellas stop talkin' when my baby enters the room
It's like somebody set a bomb off
Everybody's pointing they lied they ain't got nothing on you (you)
She move her body like a stripper
Make me wanna tip her (shawty go so damn hard)

She feeling a little tipsy one more shot of henny
And Ima' tare that booty to part

[Chorus: x2]

Yeah
She say she into spooning, I say I'm into forking
I wanna kill dat ass, call me lyfe come forking
Her body's acting up I wanna make a movie
Straight to dvd too nasty for tv.
She said buy me a drink I bought the whole club
And fired everybody and now she fired up.
She said she wanna do it underneath the spotlight
I said is dat right (right)





[Chorus]

[Verse 1]
Are you a man who loves and cherishes and cares for me?
(Is that you? Is that you? Is that you?)
Are you a guard in a prison, maximum security?
(Is that you? Is that you? Is that you?)
Do we stay home all the time because you want me to yourself?
(Is that you? Is that you? Is that you?)
Or am I locked away, out of fear that I'll find someone else?
(Is that you? Is that you? Yeah)

[Chorus]
Well, I don't like
Living under your spotlight
Just because you think I might
Find somebody worthy (Worthy)
No, I don't like
Living under your spotlight
Maybe if you treat me right
You won't have to worry

[Verse 2]
Is this a relationship fulfilling your needs as well as mine?
(Is that you? Is that you? Is that you?)
Or is this just my sentence? Am I doing time?
(Is that you? Is that you? Is that you?)
Oh, if this love, real real love, then I'm staying, no doubt
(Is that you? Is that you? Is that you?)
But if I'm just love's prisoner, then I'm bustin' out
(Is that you? Is that you? Yeah)

[Chorus]
Oh, baby, I don't like
Living under your spotlight (Spotlight)
Just because you think I might (Just because you think I might)
Find somebody worthy (Find somebody worthy)
No, I don't like (I don't like)
Living under your spotlight (Living under your, under your)
Maybe if you treat me right (Treat me right)
You won't have to worry (You won't have to worry, no, no)

[Bridge]
Oh, you oughta be
Ashamed of yourself
What the hell do you think you're doing
Lovin' me, lovin' me?
So wrong
Baby, all I do is try (Try)
To show you that you're my (My)
One and only guy (My guy)
No matter who may come along
Open your eyes, 'cause baby, I don't like

[Chorus]
Hey, 'cause I don't like
Living under your spotlight (Oh no)
Just because you think I might
Find somebody worthy (Find somebody worthy)
No, I don't like
Living under your spotlight (Living under your spotlight)
Maybe if you treat me right (Treat me right, yeah)
You won't have to worry (You don't ever have to worry)

[Outro]
I don't like
