[music]

[music]

You arrived, and without

asking permission, I let you into my head.

[music]

Whether I can get you out of there, I can't

guarantee. [music]

Go ahead, break my heart, because

I can turn the suffering into money. [music]

I just want to know [singing] if what

you said last night while fucking were

lies.

[music] I won't promise you heaven because

I would like [singing] to take you a little bit

further. [music]

You always arrive all dressed up, but at

home, you take off your makeup.

You are too perfect for this to

happen just once and that's it.

I just want to know if what you said

last night while fucking were lies.

[music]

I won't promise you heaven because I'd

like to take you a little bit further.

You always arrive all dressed up, but look,

at home you take off your makeup.

You are too [music] perfect

for this to [singing] happen just

one time and that's it.

Just one time and that's it. Let's go somewhere

where there is no [music][singing]

internet.

The blue water [music] in your hand, a

glass of Cabernet.

After [music] I have you all to myself,

the world can fall apart.

[music] And I [singing] won't care

once you are

here, begging for more. It incites me

to [music] sin, but may God

bless her. The dust is flying because

she doesn't get tired. Two [music] or three

insects talking about me. Shake up the

anthill to see if the ants come out.

Tell me if those "I [music] love yous"

were what you said while drunk. They came with an expiration date.

I know there are many waiting for my downfall,

but before I fall, someone

is going to suffer. [music] Don't you see that

I'm playing to win, while they are losing. I already

have them all figured out and [singing][music] I didn't

even try. Sorry if I didn't answer, that's just

the lifestyle. Earn my trust to

let loose the [music] black car. I am the

piece that always locks the game for you.

Baby, I know this happened very fast,

unusual, but I hope your nails

[music] keep leaving marks

on my back.

[music]

Always dressed up

[music]

from

[music]

just once.

Let's go somewhere where there is no

[music][singing] internet.

The blue water [music] in your hand,

a glass of Cab

after I have you [music] all to myself,

the world [singing] can fall apart

and I won't care [music] after

you are here, begging for more.
