lyrics
Temptation.
Emotion.
Impulse.
Every man’s a slave to it.
Eye Contact.
Conversation.
Body Language.
Stimulation.”
She likes me, she likes me,
She keeps callin’ me KING it’s enticing.
Yea YOU found your Queen, I’m the real thing,
I’ll be YOUR Goddess in the streets, freak in the sheets.
Yea, uh huh.
Yea, uh huh.
Yea, uh huh.
Yea, uh huh.
If I drop it down, can YOU pick it up?
If I take it too far can YOU bring it back?
Can YOU make me High, when I’m gettin’ low?
Can YOU speed it up, can YOU take it slow.
Here WE go.
Here WE go.
It’s the chase of it.
See I don’t want it no more once I get a taste of it, really.
It’s a game that we’re both playin’
YOU want my name and I’m trynna get a Stab at it O.J.’in’.
But I already found my Ride or Die, Cookie Johnson.
I’m just a man, just lookin’ for options.
I found my Coretta Scott Mrs. but the plot thickens,
It’s Risky Business if I link with YOU and Slide in it.
WE Die to Live. WE Live to Die.
Time tickin’. Hell or Heaven, She the bomb. (She the bomb)
Will God Damn US for haram harems?
The ticks or her bomb-heaven got the Pauls-barren (Pall[s]bearing).
Coughin’ (Coffin) Nailin’, even Mary want her (Marijuana).
So High her Highness.
But, I can’t Promise Landing like the blindest pilot.
She so HOT, she be on them Honest Johns like a Bow-tie, YOU don’t lay with condoms.
YOU might catch a Will of Fortune from a Silent Virus,
That a Witch Doctor couldn’t Spell his way up out of.
Niggas will learn magic, before they learn from Magic.
High off of Temptation, smoke the earth and pass it.
Feel free to let YOURself go, Temptations are Everywhere.
Reap what YOU sew from High to Low, they Blowing in the Wind.
Feel free to let YOURself go, Temptations are Everywhere.
Reap what YOU sew from High to Low, they Blowing in the Wind.
