Lyrics
[Intro]
I'ma rap to you real quick
I wanna enjoy the luxury of like, not knowing each other, for real
Hold up
[Verse 1]
Lotus flower bomb, firefly
When I'm low, she take me high
I can teach you all the sounds of love
[Verse 2]
Flower bomb, let me guess your favorite fragrance
And you got that bomb, huh, I'm tryna detonate you
No disrespecting baby, just tryna make you smile
Try to keep my spirits up, that's why I lays it down
Try to keep your spirits up, little vodka, whatever
Took you forever to get dressed, I acknowledge your effort
So I clap for her, she deserves an applause
Shorty working so hard, she deserve that baton
Shorty, where your baton? Racing through my mind like
She heard that I got that work, I heard that she been on strike
Care to tell, I'll read your mind, she been on them dollars first
Caramel macchiatos when shorty getting to work
I can be your boyfriend, be your ****, or a friend with perks
I'm just trying to work that, they just trying to work your nerves
I'm just trying to read your mind, I'm just trying to feed you mine
I'm just trying to give you light, they just trying to leave you blind
[Verse 3]
We're living in a fantasy, I feel it when you dance with me
It's feeling like you need to be my lady, my baby, yeah
Can't you see I'm talking 'bout eternity?
Tell me would you care to be my lady, my baby?
[Verse 4]
Flower bomb, can I blow up on your mind?
This is not no Sandra Bull, but you're Potion Number 9
Navigating through her eyes, destination to her thighs
And I hate to tell you too much, 'cause I stay with too much pride
And we way too young to know love, maybe not, but we don't need no rush
Don't believe in love at first sight, but believe in love at first, huh
Can I be with you just one night? I can wear you out inside
I can tell you like persistence, but I make you cum in tri's
I just think we need one night, can't decide if I came right
Easy, baby, my thing tight, but that lotus flower just ain't right
I aint thinking I ain't right, can't decide, but I can't fight
Easy, baby, you the bomb and all, but I'll be damned if I do not land mine
Or at least try, can I speak up? Was it peace out? Can we eat lunch?
Can we take shots with your flavor? Flat drinks we call A cups
I just think I need one night, slightly more if it's done right
With that gorgeous face, I don't know your name
It ain't important, babe, 'cause I'ma call you mine
[Verse 5]
We're living in a fantasy, I feel it when you dance with me
It's feeling like you need to be my lady, my baby, yeah
Can't you see I'm talking 'bout eternity?
Tell me would you care to be my lady, my baby?
'Cause I don't know you, you don't know me
The clock keeps ticking, baby, what's it gonna be?
I don't know you, you don't know me
Let me teach you all the sounds of love
Ah, eh, ee, I, o, ooh
Baby, this was for you, for you, Lotus
