lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanna keep it 100, really real witchu
Beyond the cover page, this the real issue
I’m vibing on you, that much is set
But what my crush don’t know is how I’m crushed in debt
But when the income flow and I clutch the check?
I spend on dope and I flush the rest
Until I end up broke and such a mess
I gotta I hit my folks as a crutch for rent
Oh, It’s sad, I know - I’m embarrassed for it
But if you found out later, I’d be embarrassed more, so!
There you go - I’m trying to be an honest guy
So please don’t be surprised by the time you realize



[Verse 2]

But I guaran-damn-tee you when you bring me home for dinner
That your Momma and daddy gon be looking at you like crazy
Thinking “How this homeless-looking mother fucker with my baby”
Just sitting at the table and their faaaaaaces hurt

Far as suitors go? I’m the furthest from the safe pick
If love is blind, they’d order you to get lasik
but look, I don’t blame em, I’m no sensible selection
No college, steady job or a sense of a direction
So, there you go - I’m trying to be an honest guy
So please don’t be surprised when you finally realize


[Verse 3]
My future is fuzzy, no income is coming
But I’ma guarantee that I can always give you one thing
Six inches on a great day, gimme one swing
Hit it out the park even if your boy’s bunting
Flat out money isn’t an incentive
But if I ever tell you that I love you? then I meant it
Cook romantic dinners, candle lights scented
Ramen wrapped in tortillas, I’m oh so inventive
Any thoughts for me to stray is immediately prevented
Why explore other teams when my team’s already winning?
So there you go, just know that I’d provide
Every ounce of beating love if you can overlook that I’m —
