Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do better, who better, you better
Been around, like hella propellers
Wanna know, who you with, don't tell 'em
Come on fellas, that ain't none of yo biz'
Got on yo body suit you know I'm on yo ass today
Would you let me hit it thrice if I asked today?
She know my stick nothin' but magic, bae
I be swingin' it back and forth 'til you in your casket bae, mm
Girl you on my best side, mm
But she from the Westside, mm mm
[Verse 2]
Now I just wanna know, don't just sugarcoat
I'll say it all if you won't
Now could you tell me like it is, pretty little fears
Music to my ears
[Verse 3]
Okay, say it loud, say it proud, you want it more
We open door, hit the couch, then the floor
I cut it up like a SZA, love galore
She never bored, there's so much shit we can do
You free to say whatever baby if you askin' me
No limit when I'm in it, got a master p
I'm hopin' I don't have a fast release
Got me focused like I'm out here try'na get my Masters, see, mm
Throwin' up the peace sign, mm
Girl I'm from the east side, mm, mm
Girl you on my best side, mm
Say she from the West side, mm, mm
[Verse 4]
Now I just wanna know, don't just sugarcoat
I'll say it all if you won't
Now could you tell me like it is, pretty little fears
Music to my ears
Now I just wanna know, don't just sugarcoat
I'll say it all if you won't
Now could you tell me like it is, pretty little fears
Music to my ears
[Verse 5]
I'm lovin' your light, vulnerable
Lettin' your guard down, it's honorable
Especially when, the past ain't been that
Friendly to you, but, there's magic in that
You the flower that I gotta protect
And keep alive in the wintertime, ay, don't you die yet
You been way more than a friend of mine, we more like fam
I raised you, you raised me, lets turn this whole life 'round
You can confide in me
I could take the weight up off your shoulder blades and try to store the pain inside of me
Like, why the world do you like that?
Like they don't know you're Godsent, but me, I view you like that
I'm sneaking glances, thanking God that he drew you like that
Beautiful black child, come and share you black cloud
For your vibe and your smile, I don't mind a lil' rain
I'm your dog, ears perk up at the sound of your name
Count on your main, wildfire can't handle your flame
Download your strain, wild high, come drown in your fragrance
You that red pill that a **** found in the Matrix
Before I had you, this shit was fantasy, you plant a seed
To grow some roots a branch and leaves becomes a tree of life
Until our nights are filled with peace from stress and strife
And that's the blessing that I get from wifin' you 'cause you
Entrusted me with the key to your heart, beating you smart
'Cause even though I need a new start
Due to my past transgressions you believed in me
I guess the light I see in you is what you see in me, Lord
Say she from the Westside, mm
And she see my best side mm, mm
[Verse 6]
Now I just wanna know, don't just sugarcoat
I'll say it all if you won't
Now could you tell me like it is, pretty little fears
Music to my ears
