Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Mm-mm, yeah

Mm-mm, yeah

Lift me up, lift me up

Hallelujah (hallelujah)

Yeah, lift me up, lift me up

Hallelujah (Lord, lift me up)

Okay

Half a mill' posted in Bel Air lobby

Yeah, fuckin' with a star, think she somebody

I like her real sweet, thotty and a little snobby

I like to rap, but gettin' hoes is my real hobby

Yeah, money and the chase, chasin' don't stop it

I need the gross, same number as the profit

She want a nigga who gon' lock her, got a lot of options

How she fallin' in love, I ain't even pop yet? (Bro)

I pay extra for the big body (body)

I'm a cold ass nigga, need a hot toddy

Bless me, got the money runnin'

And that chain on my neck, I got chills from it

Prayed it up, you slept on me, but I waited up

Lookin' at me crazy like I made it up

Praise hands to me 'cause I'm way up (Lord, lift me up), up

Lift me up, lift me up, got the engine in trunk

I need hunnid on two, and I need one on the pump

S-s-second to none and I'm Neo, the one

Your, your life just begun, and I do this for fun

Fakin' that flex on the 'Gram, nigga, stop it

You took my style, had a baby, adopted it

Why would I lie when it's facts that you copied it?

Heard your new shit, floppy this (bro)

I pay extra for the big body (body)

I'm a cold ass nigga, need a hot toddy

Bless me, got the money runnin'

And that chain on my neck, I got chills from it

Prayed it up, you slept on me, but I waited up

Lookin' at me crazy like I made it up

Praise hands to me 'cause I'm way up (Lord, lift me up), up

Lift me up, lift me up, ultrabeam on the watch

High speed in the drop, and her hand on my crotch

Yes, sweepstake shawty, she could win the jackpot

Yeah, straight to the top, man, that pussy top notch

For certified banger, last ten summers

Do what I want, I can have if I want her

Yeah, I might like, but I don't really love her

These hoes ain't loyal, gotta use a rubber (bro)

I pay extra for the big body (body)

I'm a cold ass nigga, need a hot toddy

Bless me, got the money runnin'

And that chain on my neck, I got chills from it

Prayed it up, you slept on me but I waited up

Lookin' at me crazy like I made it up

Praise hands to me 'cause I'm way up (Lord, lift me up), up

Lift me up, lift me up (lift me up, lift me up), yeah

Lift me up, lift me up (lift me up, lift me up), yeah

Lift me up, lift me up (lift me up, lift me up), yeah

Lift me up, lift me up (hallelujah)

...

Lord, lift me up

Hallelujah

...

Lord, lift me up
