DJ Khaled

Keep me up, keep me up, I spy plenty of 'em

I, the biggest in your league and your millennium

I was stackin' up my chips so I got plenty of 'em

I was blowin' 'za to catch my equilibrium

Who want the smoke? (Who want the smoke?)

Bet' not choke (bet' not choke)

I made an oath (I made an oath)

To keep it afloat (to keep it afloat)

We made a toast (we made a toast)

Doin' the most (doin' the most)

To doin' the most (doin' the most)

To doin' the most (doin' the most)

Need to run it back, we need to run it back

Somebody hold my back 'cause I'm comin' in full attack

We need to run it back, we need to run it back (yeah)

Somebody hold my back 'cause I'm comin' in full attack (yeah)

Please, come for me

Ain't nobody's on this level

At least, you had to know it

But you end up callin' the devil

(Let's pray, let's pray)

I know you pray to God when you want somethin' from me

I know you pray to God when you want somethin' from me

I know you pray to God when you want some-

I smell the smoke (yeah, I smell)

Up in U-T-O (U-T-O)

Down to P-I-A, all these G-I-A's

You know I love to tote, keep that peyote role

And when Flame need to spark, she pull up

That head dumb, even though that whip she in smart (whip it)

Side, keep her head start (it's lit)

Side, bounce on the top

You know they prayin' that you drop

You know I'm prayin' that you not (no)

And never pray for the knots (no)

You know that come with the spot

You know that come when you're hot

Don't get caught dancin' with the devil

Don't leave out with the fire (fire)

Just did this party for some mems who like to one-up the ride

We make the block bleed like a menstrual, who we pull out and slide

Back to Utopia, let's ride

I'll be back when I-, uh (straight up)

Please, come for me

Ain't nobody's on this level

At least, you had to know it

But you end up callin' the devil

(Let's pray, let's pray)

I know you pray to God when you want somethin' from me

I know you pray to God when you want somethin' from me

I know you pray to God when you want some-
