Real hot girl shit (Keep it Z3N)
Ayy
He like it when I work that, twerk that, serve that
And ride it like a rodeo
He like it when I lick that, sit down, look back
When I ride him like a rodeo
He lookin' like a snack, I'm tryna lick him like (ah)
I got my tongue out like (ah), poke it out like (ah)
He lookin' like a snack, I'm tryna lick him like (ah, ah)
Shake, shake that ass, make, make, make it nasty
Since you show it in your pictures, I'm gon' take, take that cash
They know Megan puttin' on for all the ratchet bitches (all the ratchet bitches)
And if you pop your pussy, boy, call it ratchet business, ayy, look
Bitch, touch them toes, ayy, bitch, get that dough
If you in love with your body, bitch, take off your clothes
I'ma ride him like a pro 'cause I ain't new to this shit
And I ain't never been a clown, but I'ma fool on the dick, ah
He like it when I work that, twerk that, serve that
And ride it like a rodeo
He like it when I lick that, sit down, look back
When I ride him like a rodeo
I got my tongue out like (ah), poke it out like (ah)
He lookin' like a snack, I'm tryna lick him like (ah)
I got my tongue out like (ah), poke it out like (ah)
He lookin' like a snack, I'm tryna lick him like (ayy, ayy, look, ah, ah)
I told him, "Brrt, stick it, wah-wah-wah, stick it"
Why you askin' if I like it when you know that you don't hear me?
All them big-mouth boys never last in it (never last in it)
I scream the loudest when I'm fuckin' on a quiet nigga, ah, ah
Bounce it biggity, she not lit as me
No Nicole, but are you kidding me?
Look up bad bitch, I'm the epitome
Been real thick, I don't no need no Apetamin
Deadass be like are you shitting me?
I'm undead, ain't no bitch killing me
Hold that stick like I'm in a symphony (ayy)
For these simps, I have no sympathy
He like it when I work that, twerk that, serve that
And ride it like a rodeo
He like it when I lick that, sit down, look back
When I ride him like a rodeo
I got my tongue out like (ah), poke it out like (ah)
He lookin' like a snack, I'm tryna lick him like (ah)
I got my tongue out like (ah), poke it out like (ah)
He lookin' like a snack, I'm tryna lick him like (ah, ah)

I encourage women to embrace and flaunt their sexuality and make money from it. I represent and empower sexually confident women. If you're willing to engage in sexual activity, it's business. I encourage women to dance and strip for money if they desire. I'm experienced in sexual activity and will do it well. I never act foolish during sex, but I'm wild on the penis.

I guide him in sex, but he doesn't listen to my directions. Men who talk too much fail to last long in sex. I make the most noise during sex with quiet men. I have an impressive body and am a superior woman. I don't need any supplements to have a thick body. I'm hard to defeat and can't be killed in sex. I manipulate men sexually like a conductor directs an orchestra. I feel no pity for men who cater to women too much.
Real hot girl shit
Ah, mwah
Baow, baow, baow
Brrt, stick it, wah-wah-wah, stick it
Wah-wah-wah, stick it, ah
I represent and inspire women to be confident and sexually empowered. I make sounds of kissing, firing a gun, and sexually guiding a man. I direct him during sex to pleasure us both.
