Just Us
Lyrics:
[English]
I wish it was just us in this -
But they can't trust us in this -
'Cause I'm tryna - in this, huh
Let's keep it on a hush-hush in this -
I told her she's so pretty
And she just blushed in this -
She clutch-clutchin' my huh
I'm adjusting my huh
She husky like mush-mush in this -
You must be nuts rushin' this
Slow it down like macaroni
I know it sounds like Zack and Cody
This life's sweet, I mean high-key
And you might be
Something that isn't quite but slightly
Resembles wifey, I'ma need this nightly
You say you know all about Pisces
I disagree, but call it out nicely
I'm all on you, fallin' out my seat
I wish it was just us in this -
But they can't trust us in this -
'Cause I'm tryna - in this, huh
Let's keep it on a hush-hush in this -
I told her she's so pretty
And she just blushed in this -
She clutch-clutchin' my huh
I'm adjusting my huh
She husky like mush-mush in this -
You must be nuts rushin' this
Slow it down like macaroni
I know it sounds like Zack and Cody
This life's sweet, I mean high-key
Yeah
Two hands on my 'fro, starin' into my soul
Leg up on that chair, hand on that arm, tongue in that throat
I don't play with my pen, leave it on a good note
Keep you all on your toes, leave the TV off for this show
You a softy, marshmallows and black coffee
My mouth cold from this blue frosty
My back blown 'cause you blew it off me, like, "Uh"
You want me or what? Prove that with yo' huh
Spend some for this huh, who said that ain't love?
And this bass hittin' real backhanded
Insatiable, I'm like Pac-Man
We go back further than backgammon
Hey, Jackman, I mean, Jack Rabbit
I'm runnin' while I look back at it
Fans really some fanatics
They cooked, kinda like-
We cookin' - up like black magic
Backs to 'em, paper talk, spoke fax to 'em
Makeup on for these pop features
I'm throwin' - to some bad music
Yeah, I'm that stupid, like, duh
You mad cute, I wan' -
Don't ice box me, let's touch
I wish it was just us in this -
But they can't trust us in this -
'Cause I'm tryna - in this, huh
Let's keep it on a hush-hush in this -
I told her she's so pretty
And she just blushed in this -
She clutch-clutchin' my huh (my huh)
I'm adjusting my huh (huh)
She husky like mush-mush in this -
You must be nuts rushin' this
(She lonely)
We can just be friends like Musiq Soulchild
And Bobby Valentino, you can slow it down
We got all these Temptations like the group from Motown
And I'm player like the crew that came up through my hometown
...
