Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Too long I've been out here on my own
Now I'm 'bout to bring it home
Like a rollin' stone, I ain't never been afraid to die
Look a man in the eye
[Verse 3]
I come to give you what you love
It's time to give you what you love
I'ma give you what you love
Givin' you what you love
[Verse 4]
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 standin' will order
I command you to dance
Oh, dance
[Verse 5]
Run, tell your preacher and your teacher
[Verse 6]
I'ma give you what you love
I got to give you what you love (It's time to give you what you love)
It's time to give you what you love
(Givin' you what, givin' you what, givin' you what you love)
Give you what you love
Give you some love (Give you love, give you what you want)
Yeah, baby
[Verse 7]
I said take your time
Take what you love
Baby, just enough, but never too much
Baby, take your time
Take what you love
And when that baby cry, you better look with us, baby
Take your time
Take what you love
Baby, just enough, but never too much
Baby, take your time
I wanna, I wanna give you some love
Won't you give me what you love?
Yeah, alright, yeah, alright
[Verse 8]
Gonna give you some love
Some love, some love, some love (Give me what you love)
[Verse 9]
Two dimes walked up in the buildin'
Tall and concealin', wearin' 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 lookin' at me for some undercover love
