Hoops
Wolf Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can I have your face? I'm tired of mine
We shoot hoops almost every night
Saw your man with another girl
I love you 'cause you let that shit burn

I know who my real friends are
They always gon' answer when I call
Never switchin' sides is the key to my heart
Say what's on my mind
I've been real from the start hmm hmm

Ah, ah
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
I'm fuckin' real from the start ah, ah
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
Fuckin' real from the start
Fuckin' real from the start

BracΠ΅ yourself for the impact
We'rΠ΅ makin' moves
My favorite sound is cicadas and truth
My only heart comes from inside the booth
I feel alive, we got somethin' to prove
You tell it like it is, my knees to my chest
No, don't spare my feelings
Comin' from you
I will always listen, I will always listen

I know who my real friends are
They always gon' answer when I call
Never switchin' sides is the key to my heart
Say what's on my mind
I've been real from the start
Fuckin' real from the start

Ah, ah
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
I'm fuckin' real from the start ah, ah
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
Fuckin' real from the start
Fuckin' real from the start

Ah, ah (From the start)
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
I'm fuckin' real from the start
Ah, ah (Fuckin' real from the start)
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
Fuckin' real from the start
Fuckin' real from the start

Talk shit, but to me
You only say that shit to me
Yeah, yeah, yeah shoot hoops in our jeans
Only say the things we mean yeah, yeah, yeah

Can I have your face? I'm tired of mine
Can't stay mad even when we try
Saw your man with another girl
Just like me, always let that shit burn

Ah, ah
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
I'm fuckin' real from the start ah, ah
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
Fuckin' real from the start
Fuckin' real from the start

Ah, ah (From the start, burn)
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
I'm fuckin' real from the start
(From the start)
Ah, ah (Ayy, hey hey hey hey)
Put the car in park, spillin' out your heart
I would never lie
Fuckin' real from the start
Fuckin' real from the start

Talk shit, but to me
You only say that shit to me




Yeah, yeah, yeah shoot hoops in our jeans
Only say the things we mean yeah, yeah, yeah
