[English]

Yeah, you know I love havin' a studio at home

Because right when I walk in the booth

You know I, I take a sip of my drink

You know like, light a cigarette and walk up to the mic

And it's exactly the correct height for me

That really just makes me feel comfortable

You know, lets the mind be at ease

And I, I noticed that, that uh, sometimes I, I rap with my rollie on

And sometimes I take it off

You ain't gotta worry if you're cold

I promise, baby, I'll be there by tomorrow

From the beginnin', I'll be down for it all

'Cause I ain't seen nobody like you

And you look so good, when you walk by

I had to stop, you blew my high

A real angel, bring it back to Earth

Hi, I'm sitting in the clouds

Everything around seems different to me now

And this could be a change for the both of us

Get away from the world that's controlling us

It's only just me, I hope you trust me

You look a little nervous, keep adjusting

Your blouse that you got on

The buttons come undone

Let me know if you need me to put a fan on

I stand on the floor, 'bout to collapse

The bliss turns to war, heart turns to ash

Fun turns to drugs, the idea of cash

Has taken away my mind

And I think that it's a sign that

Your beauty handed me my mind back

My conscious will attempt to dissolve

I do some shit I won't remember at all

You ain't gotta worry if you're cold

I promise, baby, I'll be there by tomorrow

From the beginnin', I'll be down for it all

'Cause I ain't seen nobody like you

And you look so good, when you walk by

I had to stop, you blew my high

A real angel, bring it back to Earth

Ayy, what's up, A? Check in

Ayy, my eyes open (open) but I'm barely awake (Future)

They say my codeine purple (purple, and your beauty is ayy (ayy)

That beauty takin' me away (space) I'm smokin' on that good Cali

I'm gettin' higher than Hollywood, get deeper than the valley

As you get lower than low rider, your favorite ghostwriter (could be)

We jumpin' the gun (gun) I might go over beyond

Purchase a one-way ticket, don't know when you'll return (come here)

I need to roll me a blunt, 'cause you done blew this joint (ha)

They say the stars all line up (line) then they bring out the sun (Sun)

Hey, this a red carpet event (what?) I'ma bring out that one

She so sophisticated, I brought her presidential rollies

I'm no longer faded (ayy), she got me sober off of conversation (turn up)

Said, I'm no longer faded (ayy), she got me sober off of conversation (turn up)

You ain't gotta worry if you're cold

I Promise, baby, I'll be there by tomorrow

From the beginnin', I'll be down for it all

'Cause I ain't seen nobody like you

And you look so good, when you walk by

I had to stop, you blew my high

A real angel, bring it back to Earth
