Do you hear me calling?
I'm still falling for your love
Is it right or wrong if I write a song saying you're the one?
Do you hear me calling?
Is it right or wrong if I write a song saying you're the one?
My heart's broken, I know
I been feeling so damn low
But when you're near I feel no fear, baby answer the phone
Yeah!
Do you hear me calling?
I jumped for you, and I'm still falling
Bust a backflip right into my coffin
Empty the damn clip, a hundred rounds I'm popping
You know I never run, that's why I keep a gun
Just tell me you're the one
I'm only 21, ballsy, rich, and dumb
You know where I'm from
Every time I give someone my heart it breaks, but when I see your face it puts me outer space
No, I wasn't a-ok, but now I'm a-ok
Please don't turn away, when I call your name
Do you hear me calling?
I'm still falling for your love
Is it right or wrong if I write a song saying you're the one?
Do you hear me calling?
I'm still falling for your love
Is it right or wrong if I write a song saying you're the one?
Fell in love with a girl from Vegas
Not really famous, but got me feeling like the greatest
She's amazing, her love is contagious
And when she naked, goodness gracious
Loving you on sight, girl you got me blind tho
I could go all night, love it when you ride slow
I'ma bring you around, aye
Hold you down, hold you down, yeah
Pull up to your house, yeah
Watching you walk out, yeah
Then I realize, yeah
I was lost and now I'm found, yeah
Every time I give someone my heart it breaks, but when I see your face it puts me outer space
No, I wasn't a-ok, but now I'm a-ok
Please don't turn away, when I call your name
Do you hear me calling?
I'm still falling for your love
Is it right or wrong if I write a song saying you're the one?
Do you hear me calling?
I'm still falling for your love
