Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I ain't finna explain
You can take it or you leave it there
I don't see no way
I ain't finna explain myself (ooh-ooh)
I ain't finna explain, no (ooh-ooh)
You can take it or you leave it there (ooh-ooh)
I don't see no way (ooh-ooh)
If you can't accept the fact that I be drippin'
That I'm different
I was dipped in glitter
Since I came out my mama now I was the pick of the litter
Now I'm the one and you bitter
Nah, I ain't the one that you figured I'd be
Saucy
Late glow up but I'm glossy (yeah)
Put your head down now boss me (yeah)
Pop my collar, I'm flossy (yeah)
Seasoned but not salty
Sorry I'm not sorry, I
It's a loss if you lost me yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I ain't finna explain myself (ooh-ooh)
I ain't finna explain (ooh-ooh)
You can take it or you leave it there (ooh-ooh)
I don't see no way (ooh-ooh)
I ain't finna explain myself (ooh-ooh)
I ain't finna explain, no (ooh-ooh)
You can take it or you leave it there (ooh-ooh)
I don't see no way (ooh-ooh)
No, I ain't gonna elaborate
We're just not the same
Clear as day you're stuck in your ways
Way too dipped in game
You ain't gotta answer the phone
You can act like nobody home
Still gon' get in the door, making myself real comfortable
Shoes on your mothafuckin' couch (couch)
My bad news in your mothafuckin' mouth (mouth)
How he know my business? (business)
How she know what the deal is? (she knows)
Matter fact I ain't even trippin'
I know what the real is
I know who the villain (villain)
Feelin' myself in the mothafuckin' buildin'
Could've been something you could build with (real)
