Baby, we've both grown (mmm, baby, we've both grown)
Baby, we've both grown
(Daytrip took it to 10)
Baby, we've both grown, yeah (baby, we've both grown)
I'm so used to being alone, yeah (bein' alone)
Smoke a J now watch the throne, yeah (watch my throne)
Your true colors have been shown (have been shown)
You took my heart and I said no (I said no)
You took my heart and I said no
Now I'm alone, I'm alone
Two Pyrex bowls up on the stove (whip, whip, whip, whip)
My brothers whippin' it with both (whip, whip, whip, whip)
Spend some time just on my own
Needed a little growth (growth)
Baby, we've both grown (grown)
Why you acting different with me? You're tryna control ('trol)
I'm in the studio I can't be playin' Romeo
She's fuckin' with my head, and I'm just sippin' out of foam
I'm grindin' just 'til late, while she's just sitting down at home (down at home)
While shes sittin' down at home I'm in my thoughts (I'm in my thoughts)
Is it her or is it me? Can't be my fault (it ain't my fault)
And I lie sometimes, but it can't be my fault (it ain't my fault)
And I lie sometimes, but it can't be my fault
Baby, we've both grown, yeah (baby, we've both grown)
I'm so used to being alone, yeah (bein' alone)
Smoke a J now watch the throne, yeah (smoke a J then watch my throne)
From the top, I'm in my zone, I'm in my zone, I'm in my zone
Your true colors have been shown (have been shown)
You took my heart and I said no (I said no)
You took my heart and I said no
Now I'm alone, I'm alone
I gave it my all and you took it (took it)
She went through my brain, understood it ('stood it)
I got a call for a booking, now I'm too busy for her and she know it (yeah, she know it)
When I'm back baby, you better throw it, throw it back on me
I love a call baby, yeah
I gotta leave, she's throwing tantrums saying I ain't shit (I ain't shit)
Can't be fucking with my mantra, she ain't shit (she ain't shit)
My priorities already set straight (yeah, they're straight)
Life is sweet but with her, it's like a cake (like a cake)
I'm elusive and exclusive, can't be fake (can't be fake)
I drive alone and think a lot to set it straight (set it straight)
I've been on roads, goin' hard up in the paint (Waka Flame)
Yeah, I still got the Waka-Flocka Flame (flame, flame, flame, flame)
Baby, we've both grown, yeah (baby, we've both grown)
I'm so used to being alone, yeah (bein' alone)
Smoke a J now watch the throne, yeah (smoke a J then watch my throne)
From the top, I'm in my zone, I'm in my zone, I'm in my zone
Your true colors have been shown (have been shown)
You took my heart and I said no (I said no)
You took my heart and I said no
Now I'm alone, I'm alone
