Lyrics

I am sharper than a razor Eyes made of lasers Bolder than the truth They want me locked up in the system 'Cause I'm on a mission Blame it on my youth Too long I've been out here on my own Now I'm bout to bring it home Like a rolling stone I ain't never been afraid to die Look a man in the eye I come to give you what you love... It's time to give you what you love... I'm a give you what you love... Givin' you what you love... I am sharper than a switchblade First and last of what God made and that's the truth But man, keep on tryna' hold me back While another chicken head come home to roost Too strong, tryna do me wrong And the last one standing will order to my dance Ohho... dance! Run tell your preacher and your teacher I come to give you what you love... It's time to give you what you love... I'm a give you what you love... Givin' you what you love... I say to take your time! Take what you love Baby, just enough But never too much Take your time! Would you give me what you love! Would you give me what you love! I say to take your time! Take what you love Baby, just enough But never too much Take your time! Would you give me what you love! Would you give me what you love! Two dimes walked up in the building Tall and concealing, wearing fancy things Chopped up with a knife, hammered like a screw. When they walked in the room we didn't know what to do One looked at me and I looked back She said, "Can you tell me where the party's at?" She followed me back to the lobby Yeah, she was looking at me for some undercover love
