Lean
R. Flex Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Underneath your door
Walls and naked sounds
Bed quaking now
You think I don't know
How shadows ebb and flow
Up on all fours
You're shaking down
Pressing bodies pound
Dripping to the ground
It's swim or drown
Creeping all around
Name all over town
All up their mouth
I'll take you out
Keeping up a front
Tryna to creep on me
Who you're tryna stunt?
You ain't got that lean
Boy, I'll catch your body
Stop your flex real clean
Cold case and bodied
Ice your game unseen
Keeping up a front
Tryna to creep on me
Who you're tryna stunt?
You ain't got that lean
Boy, I'll catch your body
Stop your flex real clean
Cold case and bodied
Ice your game unseen
You ain't got that lean
You ain't got that lean
You ain't got that lean
You ain't got that lean
Hiding like a mouse
Locked up in the house
You should know by now
I'll blow it down
Loaded up the ones (Ha ha)
Catch you on the run
Smile when it's done
You're prey I'll hunt
Whatcha cryin' bout?
Sorry for yourself?
Betcha didn't think about anyone else
Till I counted down (3... 2... gun!)
Keeping up a front
Tryna to creep on me
Who you're tryna stunt?
You ain't got that lean
Boy, I'll catch your body
Stop your flex real clean
Cold case and bodied
Ice your game unseen
Keeping up a front
Tryna to creep on me
Who you're tryna stunt?
You ain't got that lean
Boy, I'll catch your body
Stop your flex real clean
Cold case and bodied
Ice your game unseen
You ain't got that lean
You ain't got that lean
You ain't got that lean
You ain't got that lean
If you think you got that lean, heh
I'll pack that body, creep body
Like it was only meat
I'll sell it in the meat department
Like it was groceries
I'll sell it to your family and families
With growing teens
Trick 'n' treat
And maybe they can retrace this
Hours been bitter tasting
Hourglass dunes erasing
Loyalty I've been chasing
Cause you can't even been a good guy, act right, one night
Fireworks on ice in the sky, I go blind - BOOM!
Keeping up a front
Tryna to creep on me
Who you're tryna stunt?
You ain't got that lean
Boy, I'll catch your body
Stop your flex real clean
Cold case and bodied
Ice your game unseen
Keeping up a front
Tryna to creep on me
Who you're tryna stunt?
You ain't got that lean
Boy, I'll catch your body
Stop your flex real clean
Cold case and bodied
Ice your game unseen
You ain't got that lean
