Ohh ohh
Hmm
Round & Round
Hmm
Round & Round
Yeah
Don't be afraid now
I know you been lying my face hmmm
Getting in my way now 
I need you out of my life
Cause I been unfaithful
Shawty you know everything's paid for 
But we never been stable 
Cause every time we ride
We just go round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
But we don't ever go nowhere
We just go round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
But we don't ever go nowhere
I might pull up
With a bad bitch everybody like "who dat?"
She a big shooter
Rolling up blunts and they looking like buddha
Might get too lit 
Fuck in my ride only way I get through ya
I'm out for that moola
On the westside I shine no jeweler
But you 
Killing my vibe 
I feel like you
Not my side 
I know bout you 
Keeping them lies
Don't know bout truth

And I
I just go round 
I'm trynna get right 
You make me go down 
Oh baby I lied
I don't know how
Baby I don't know why 
We just go round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
But we don't ever go nowhere
We just go round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
But we don't ever go nowhere
I'm running outta time like
You running through my mind
I'm just trynna get the limelight
You trynna fuck my timeline
Up because you down right
Fucked up in the mind I'm
Hoping that you get it right before you end up flatlined 
Oh baby tell me what just happed to the fire that
Both of us felt when we was riding on the sidelines
We cant even look each other in the eyes
Cause  you 
Killing my vibe

Keeping them lies
Don't know bout truth

Oh baby I lied

Round and round and round
Round and round and round
But we don't ever go nowhere
We just go round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
But we don't ever go nowhere
