lyrics

CH- B&H
Boom slap she got it like
hit the floor make ya knees go clap
like uh eh, she make ya say damn
at ya feet, brought the beach to the sand

HV1-
Nice collection
and a great selection
so I stand attention
I can’t stand elections
I can’t plan a pension
am I past my perfection
to pass my personify, sorry it’s my session
i’m pickin at my thought
kickin ya hip hop or pop at the speed of drop
and it don’t stop
tick-tock man,
this is my clock fam
this is our shot, blam
gimme my spot, damn

BV2-
Now she a go get, low set
brick to ya magnet
switch hitch be the
ghost in ya gadget
most habbit
shwag never had it
i'm talkin icky thump,
giddie funk, biggie bump
the kinda trunk leave a
divot in ya city swamp
i'll take another one
that's what the patrons hum
with her name on they lips
sing the sirens song
though the vine is long we keep it swinging

CH- B&H
RC- I search for the truth, yes I did
like uh eh, she make ya say damn
why you run by
I search for the truth, yes I did
like uh eh, she make ya say damn
at ya feet, brought the beach to the sand


HV2-
I'm on a locomotive full speed ‘till that motors broken
motor boating through the liquid in my serotonin
summers back with a hot new keep it smokin’
craving bay breeze and 80 degrees coasting
chest roasting I’m sun beatin finesse toastin
west coastin on my bike through the planets motion
it’s all heart and we ride it like we roller coastin
no potion a hundred percent emotion

BV2-
Jungle fulla fauna
blaze a saunna
when she spinning
tribal her vinyl, spinal tap
8 track brain tape deck in the back
she boom-clap
they wanna picture yo
so they can say they caught a day up in her mixture though
she moving scriptures
scribes watch the victor
and when she stand upon
that mountain watch the river
run by,run run, a run by, run run

CH- B&H
RC- I search for the truth, yes I did
like uh eh, she make ya say damn
why you run by
I search for the truth, yes I did
like uh eh, she make ya say damn
at ya feet, brought the beach to the sand

Bridge- H&B
Uh, It's all automatic
you know the girl speaks slow
that's how I know, that everything that she say is right
you know the girl speaks slow
and i know ya know, that everything that ya say is right


CH- B&H
Boom slap she got it like
hit the floor make ya knees go clap
like uh eh, she make ya say damn
at ya feet, brought the beach to the sand
why you run by
my girl she knows

Outro- Karen Mills
She on a mission, she got it like that
she on a mission, she want it like that
ooohhh ohhhhh ohhhhhh, hey hey
