Her
The Code Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

See I was thinking about
All the little things that you might think about
Like starting bouts
With silly goofy niggas acting out
Because you ain't about
Giving up the nappy dugout
Which is funny 'cause
Everybody tryna eat you out
But I just wanna ask you out so
How does 2 sound?
Emotional rollercoaster
My head spinning 'round
'Cause when I see you these the words I pray
Come out of my mouth
They won't come out of my mouth

And that's when things go south
'Cause usually my favorite remedy
A pound of the loud
The thought of green
And money trees
To partially
Drown you out
But as it turns out
I always end the night with a pout

I dream of happy memories
And bringing you to my town
The beauty of divinity
From seeing you in a gown
Envisioning a destiny
In which I stop every frown
'Cause when it comes to you and me girl
We could never be down
Unless we talking pleasantries
In which we might fool around

Hmmm, I really think I'm gonna miss her
Hmmm, I really think I'm gonna miss her
Hmmm, I really think I'm gonna miss her
Her




Her
Her
