[English]

I can't move on, babydoll

Waitin' on calls, flippin' through stations

I'm outclassed and it's outrageous

And I'll take it all, babydoll

Whatever's been weighing you down

Find me on Miami concrete

Lookin' for somebody different 'cause my daddy was a pimp

My mama had her issues but I miss her anyway, oh, babydoll

Please don't call me for the wrong reasons

We both know exactly what I'm thinkin'

Weeks pass and I never grow tired

'Cause I never said never, and I barely ever lie

I'm on a road to an original place in outer space

I didn't make it up, but you can't find it on a phone, or a globe

And I can take you with me if you really wanna go, oh, babydoll

I can't move on

And I can't move on, babydoll

Waitin' on calls, flippin' through stations

I'm outclassed and it's outrageous

And I'll take it all, babydoll

Whatever's been weighing you down
