Lyrics

You look cute in your cargo denims
If a man try doin' you wrong wid the disrespect
Then you know I'll dead him
I married to the game, got family ties
I don't need no wedding
You know I'm a business man
But there's no refunds for the dream I'm selling
True say you wanna hold this pipe
But them pagan yutes wanna hold these shellings
(Grrr)
Gift and curse
Feeding the fam, I just live to serve
True say I wanna lift that dress
But you know that I gotta put the business first
Hand on my heart when I writ this verse
Can't lie I'm a bit disturbed
You love when I hit that spot on
But you're gonna hate me if you hit this nerve
On my life, you can hit this curb
Seen bare bloodstains on the tee
So you already know that I did this dirt
If I play too nice then you're quick to swerve
And I can't have my feelings hurt
Or you're just gonna see me lurk
So just turn around and
Bend your back
And lemme see you hit reverse
See them tings there, yeah I'm on that
Make sure that you're here when I come back
In the field its mortal kombat
Fatalities, man I been there, done that
You want a softer life, I can fund that
Chill vibes and a lil bit of cognac
Yeah, that coulda been us
Yeah, it shoulda been you
Real life, man it coulda been us
Swear down, man it shoulda been you
Bonnie and Clyde, man that coulda been us
Ride or die, man it shoulda been you
All this time, man it coulda been us
And I hate that it shoulda been you
You know I just be maintaining
Ps on the side don't need explaining
When your putting in work its draining
Going all out when its cold and raining
Keep me warm and I'm not complaining
When I'm inside I'mma need restraining
(Why's that?)
Cah it feels amazing
Coming like your last name gonna need changing
And you're saying that you're good to go
But same time know we gotta take it slow
We can laugh all the way to the bank
But we're carrying scars and it ain't no joke
I can tell you've been battered and bruised
I still stay tryna decide if it's just bad luck or the man you choose
What am I supposed to do?
If you're saying that you're here to stay then
Ghosts from the past, that's what I don't need
I ain't don't hear what people say
They're just talking wass
Coming like they won't bleed
And you can't try doubt my ting
Start questioning man
Coming like I don't lead
Just gimme that room to breathe
I got suttin up my sleeve
You know that I gotta stay locked in
I ain't stopped from the day that I clocked in
And don't try mention your ex
Cah you see my ting and you know that I'm not him
You keep me calm when days get dark
And I feel like erupting
The only one I put trust in
Yeah, that coulda been us
Yeah, it shoulda been you
Real life, man it coulda been us
Swear down, man it shoulda been you
Bonnie and Clyde, man that coulda been us
Ride or die, man it shoulda been you
All this time, man it coulda been us
And I hate that it shoulda been you
