[Verse 1]
I live down the street in a broken down house
And a car up on blocks in the driveway
The moment we meet, there was never a doubt
That we won’t forget …
[Intro: Lil Uzi Vert]
Funny, you can’t turn me down
I already know nobody don’t got my back
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus: Lil Uzi Vert]
Bag, bag, bag, bag
Stack, racks, racks, racks
Black Mac, stay strapped
Ooh, big …
[Intro: Young Thug]
Yeah nigga issa knife and all know what I’m sayin?
Yeah nigga I hit ya wife and all know what I’m sayin?
[Hook: Roy Wood$]
Don’t ask if I’m good if …
[Verse 1]
Started off poor with plans to earn more
Now we own stores and fuck the baddest whores
I was on tour with niggas that sold raw
Started sellin’ white, we won’t sell …
[Intro]
Havana, oh na na
Half of my heart is in Havana, oh na na
He took me back to east Havana, na na na
Half of my heart is in Havana
My heart is …
Hey girl, I’m just a small town run around1
I get my kicks out on the outskirts of town2
I could never do it like a pretty city boy
I’m more a fishin’ in the dark nitty gritty boy3
So lay back and let me paint you a picture
The way I wanna kiss you is4
Slow as the Mississippi5
Strong as a fifth of whiskey6
Steady as a Tom Petty track7
I wanna love, wanna love you like that
Deeper than a sunset sky8
Sweeter than muscadine wine9
All night ‘til the sun comes back10
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that
When I’m with you I can see down the road11 girl
Not just the gravel one we’re travelin’ on girl12
And I’m bettin’ that it’s gonna be a wild ride13
But I promise that I’m gonna be there by your side14
I think we got another memory in the makin’
So baby let’s take it, take it15
Slow as the Mississippi
Strong as a fifth of whiskey
Steady as a Tom Petty track
I wanna love, wanna love you like that
Deeper than a sunset sky
Sweeter than muscadine wine
All night ‘til the sun comes back
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that
I ain’t gonna do it like a pretty city boy
I’m a fishin’ in the dark nitty gritty boy
So let me love you
Slow as the Mississippi
Strong as a fifth of whiskey
Steady as a Tom Petty track
I wanna love, wanna love you like that
Deeper than a sunset sky
Sweeter than muscadine wine
All night ‘til the sun comes back
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that
Baby, I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that16
