Turn It Up
Reekado Banks ft Tiwa Savage Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I woke up this morning
put on my make up
People are calling, time to get on it
Smile for the camera and make sure it's perfect
There is never a time to let my hair down
I gat to work it, show them I'm worth
Make them believe what you already see boy
Cos when I'm with you, I feel like I'm free
And I don't need no make up to hide underneath

Oh eh oh ah
You make me just wanna to wipe it off
Oh eh oh ah
Super sexy with no make up on
Oh eh oh ah
Wear your kisses like my favourite gloss
Oh eh oh oh ah
Oh eh oh oh ah

You got me dancing in the mirror with no makeup
Boy, you got me dancing in the mirror with no makeup
Even gat me sending sexy pictures with no makeup
I don't need it baby, no way, no way, no now with you

Let me be you cover girl

Later this evening, I got a meeting
But baby show face that I am seeing
Flying through cities, people around me,
There is never a time to let my hair down
Wish it was it easy to really be me
Magically flawless, pics never run this

But when I'm with you, I feel like I'm free
And I don't need no make up to hide underneath

Oh eh oh ah
You make me just wanna to wipe it off
Oh eh oh ah
Super sexy with no makeup on
Oh eh oh ah
Wear your kisses like my favourite gloss
Oh eh oh oh ah
Oh eh oh oh ah

You got me dancing in the mirror with no make up
Boy, you got me dancing in the mirror with no make up
Even gat me sending sexy pictures with no make up
I don't need it baby, no way, no way, no now with you

Let me be you cover girl or maybe just a simple girl It means every to you, oh

Oh eh oh ah
You make me just wanna to wipe it off
Oh eh oh ah
Supper sexy with no makeup on
Oh eh oh ah
Wear your kisses like my favourite gloss
Oh eh oh oh ah
Oh eh oh oh ah

You got me dancing in the mirror with no make up
Boy, you got me dancing in the mirror with no make up
Even gat me sending sexy pictures with no make up
I don't need it baby, no way, no way, no now with you

Oh eh oh ah
You make me just wanna to wipe it off
Oh eh oh ah
Super sexy with no make up on
Oh eh oh ah Wear your kisses like my favourite gloss
Oh eh oh oh ah
Oh eh oh oh ah

You got me dancing in the mirror with no make up
Boy, you got me dancing in the mirror with no make up
Even gat me sending sexy pictures with no make up
I don't need it baby, no way, no way, no now .





Endwith you
