Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I think she likes me for the "lights camera action"
Caught up in attraction, type to post a pic
And she don't even need a caption
Looks do the talking, I was tryna be the captain
'Bout to break a leg, need a aspirin
Met her by the bar said she just got a diploma
Said she's into soca, so I guess she knows her culture
We was meant to link but that was way before corona
Hope our destiny's a child, I can be your soldier
Maybe we could have drink, tell me what you think
We never had label but we was still in sync
Like the birds and the bees, the earth and the trees
We was intertwined like words in the beat
You was with me at my worst, just work with me please
Looking at your perks and it's perfect indeed
Had for you dessert, you deserve what you need
Feeling like a bird who emerged to be free
And found another bird, what a burst of relief
Sticking to my word, you was birthed to a T
So if we're talking stats then your 10 out of 3
I'm tryna stay forever, wasn't really tryna leave
'Cause when you lose a loved one, you know you gotta grieve
'Cause trauma manifests in many ways you won't believe
Confessions of my heart, so lady take my lead
Anywhere you go, you know you're representing me
I could never let it be
[Verse 2]
I wanna take it up a notch (We too lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
I'm tryna take us further up (Lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
I wanna take it up a notch (We too lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
I'm tryna take us further up (Lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
[Verse 3]
We're still caught in this conundrum
Leave it to assumptions
I need you on the road, couldn't leave you at the junction
Still the finest woman in the twenty-mile circumference
At any given function
Got you on my conscious
I guess the question is
Should we be official?
Both in two minds, we was stuck up in the middle
I pray it never fizzles
At least were being civil
Deciphering the riddles
Catch it before it swivelled
You made your mark like graffiti artists
A picture speaks a thousand words
I was hoping that we see the harvest
You seem the sweetest with your features
Need to leave the market
I'll be facetious in defeat
You know you been a target
You know that you was intricately made
Your history is rich ,don't let them tell you you're a slave
Ancestors in the grave
They'll be smiling at us at now
Everything that's happened is always coming back around
So put your feet up, be ready for the ride
'Cause I'm about to take you to the highest of the highs
Your river runs deep, these seas could never die
We seek but never find
These meets were never wise
But never mind
Guess we were in it for keeps
Was you in it with your heart?
Was you in it with me?
Never-the-less through the stress
Could you weather the seas
Guess it's time you turn your back on the streets
[Verse 4]
I wanna take it up a notch (We too lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
I'm tryna take us further up (Lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
I wanna take it up a notch (We too lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
I'm tryna take us further up (Lay back for the labels
Lay back for the labels, lay back for the labels)
