[English]

I think I need something new, something you got for me

I'm the one to give it to, to get into, I'm ready

I'ma get comfortable

'Cause you know I won't be here all week

And we both got it in, off free

We ain't afraid of sexuality, oh

No games, no way José, foreplay, don't fake, both ways

Like olay, and I won't chase to it, OJ

Soul based, and on face like I'm Colgate

Hallways when I go all day, get it, uh huh

Now it's the one to throw it back with it

Fittin' all that, he ain't gotta call back

Trippin' this, prison this, nigga I don't get it

I'm addicted

Reading all my feelings, need a oneway ticket

Looking so fly cuz I mind my business

So proposed, you know I'm vicious

Slow your roll, you can't lie to me baby

I see it on you, your eyes and your face

Won't be a snooze and go opposite ways

And I see you fiendin' going off on it babe

I don't need to speak, I'm not talkin' babe

'Cause you're talkin' with your body, body

Can we touch up on the topic, topic?

...

You're coming on to me

And I can read it all up on your face

Control it, get your way

Baby you can't hide from me and come and vibe with me

...

Boy it ain't my fault, it's building up inside of me

I hope I can get you off before you say goodbye to me

And boy it ain't my fault, it's building up inside of me

I hope I can get you off before you say goodbye to me

'Cause you're talkin' with your body, body

Can we touch up on the topic, topic?

...

Good self control but you stickin' it out, a figure, a mouth

Don't wonder why you twistin' your loud

Twerkin' it out and wonder why they thirstier now

Every night dodgin' broke niggas, curvin' 'em out

Like every pipe got its own feelings, lurkin' below

I mean, really? Do you love me? Is it certain, for sho?

I got money nigga, know you gon' be hurt if I don't

But I got niggas in my city and my bitches is cold, so

Tell me what you had in mind

Watch it closely, we'll unwind

Take all the G outta mine

You do your job, I'll do mine

'Cause the body doesn't lie

'Cause you're talkin' with your body, body

Can we touch up on the topic, topic?

'Cause you're talkin' with your body, body

Can we touch up on the topic, topic?

...

I think I need something new, something you got for me

I'm the one to give it to, to get into, I'm ready

I'ma get comfortable

'Cause you know I won't be here all week

And we both got an inner freak

We ain't afraid of sexuality, oh
