Balloon
Maya and Mary Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I’ve got too much rude for you
Ya leave me high just like you do
And I’ll float up like a balloon
bitch
I’ve been on the moon
Ya I’ve been low
But nothing else can weigh me down
I still got shit to make u move move
Turn these niggas into yes men
Super tight like I’m X-men
You might think your Sauce is a1
Taste my motherfucking movement
I’m dunking with my a1s
I’ve been dodging all the peasants
You been tripping off my soundbite
I don’t care what you sound like
Cause I came through
And I get higher like tatsu
Come down
Make splashes like shamoo
This shit come easy, Getty woo
N*ggas think it’s cute
But I’ve got too much rude for you
Ya leave me high just like you do
And I’ll float up like a balloon
bitch
I’ve been on the moon
Ya I’ve been low
And I’ve been doomed
But nothing else can weigh me down
I still got shit to make u move move
Night
Turn it down
Tuck you in
Go to sleep
Take a z
N*ggas thinking that we sweet Nah
Always out
Always in the BET
What you want?
Why you pushing down on me?
Turning n*ggas into yes men
Super tight like I’m X-men
You might think your Sauce is a1
Taste my motherfucking movement
I’m dunking with my a1s
I’ve been dodging all the peasants
You been tripping off my soundbite
I don’t care what you sound like
Cause I came through
And I get higher like tatsu
Come down
Make splashes like shamoo
This shit come easy, Getty woo
N*ggas think it’s cute
But I’ve got too much rude for you
Ya leave me high just like you do
And I’ll float up like a balloon
bitch
I’ve been on the moon
Ya I’ve been low
And I’ve been doomed
But nothing else can weigh me down
I still got shit to make u move move
We can always just go up
And we don't have to give a f*ck
About what all them n*ggas say
We can tune em out everyday
