""What's the answer?""
""You already know the answer""
""What's the answer?""
""That you're an ass""
""That you can't wait to see me""
""Why are you asking me all these fucking questions right now""
Baby wanna run through bands 'cause I'm ballin' out
My love stays sexy all for me
My love stay flexin' all the way
And even when the rainbow goes and it's pouring down
My love stays sexy all for me
Why don't we sex it all away?
[Verse 1]
Baby you a wild one
I know we ain't happy today
Like we were back in the day
Let's keep it one thousand
Your girls always got suttin' to say
They throwin' mud on my name
But I pray you never doubt me
I was young and dead broke
Now, I get dough
I make plans for two
I want you to, understand that you are
[Hook]
My friend from when
We only had one pence
Now we just skrr in the Benz
Got trends on trends
The way you dress too cold
Girl you're a ten plus ten
She my friend from when
We never had one pence
Now we just skrr in the Benz
Got trends on trends
You be looking too cold
Girl you're a ten plus ten
[Chorus]
Baby wanna run through bands 'cause I'm ballin' out
My love stay sexy all for me
My love stay flexin' all the way
And even when the rainbow goes and it's pouring down
My love stays sexy all for me
Why don't we sex it all away?
And it sound like nah-nah
Nah-nah, nah-nah (nah)
Nah, nah-nah, nah-nah
Nah-nah
We going in like nah-nah
Nah-nah, nah-nah (nah)
Nah, why don't we sex it all away?
[Hook]
We only had one pence
Now we just skrr in the Benz
Got trends on trends
The way you dress too cold
Girl you're a ten plus ten
She my friend from when
We never had one pence
Now we just skrr in the Benz
Got trends on trends
You be looking too cold
Girl you're a ten plus ten
[Chorus]
Baby wanna run through bands 'cause I'm ballin' out
My love stays sexy all for me
My love stay flexin' all the way
And even when the rainbow goes and it's pouring down
My love stays sexy all for me
Why don't we sex it all away?
And it sound like nah-nah
Nah-nah, nah-nah (nah)
Nah, nah-nah, nah-nah
Nah-nah
We going in like nah-nah
Nah-nah, nah-nah (nah)
Nah, why don't we sex it all away?
