[English]

I'm paying for all my father's sins

So I will thank him for you

I'mma thank him for you

My serotonin's got a while to go

Girl, it's gone cause of you

It's been gone cause of you

They say, they want heaven

...

They say, they want God

I say, I got heaven

Well I say, I am God

...

I never prayed a moment in my life

Girl I'm rewarded with you

I've been rewarded with you

So baby let me kiss your inner thigh

Let me kiss it for you

I can kiss it for you

They say, they want heaven

They say, they want God

I say, I have heaven

I say, I am God

...
