[English]

Yeah, yeah

Before they knew my name, I had you

Way before the house, and the pool

When the lights was dim, I had you

There'll be no me without you

When I die, they gon' bury me under the city

Just make sure when I go, that you're fuckin' with me

My baby is a shooter, got her hand on the blicky

She know I'm a legend, ain't no nigga fuckin' with me

Baby girl, I could say the same thing for you, oh-oh

Never lie to me, keep it true, oh-oh

You know that this life could be us, oh-oh

Be my Bonnie, I'm your Clyde, break the rules

I know that you love me

I ain't gotta ask if you love me

'Cause, you been by my side when I had nothin'

And bitches hit my line, and you don't judge me

You just fuck with me (yeah, baby)

You hid my work in your crib from the feds

Girl, I love you like I love my bread

And girl, I'm stuck wit' you, baby

Stuck with me, baby

Gave you all of me, baby, yeah

I could say a thousand times how you make me feel

Always tryna be your shield

Cover you from everythin', babe

I could say a thousand times how I'm down for real

You know where I'm from for real

Ain't nothin' to add another kill, bae

I done showed you ten times how to count a million

Fancy cars, retract the ceilin'

Really got me in my feelings, baby

Mm, now these cars ain't got no limit

I done solved the puzzle didn't it?

Struggle, I don't know the feelin'

Baby girl, I could say the same thing for you, oh-oh

Never lie to me, keep it true, oh-oh

You know that this life could be us, oh-oh

Be my Bonnie, I'm your Clyde, break the rules

I know that you love me

I ain't gotta ask if you love me

'Cause, you been by my side when I had nothin'

And bitches hit my line, and you don't judge me

You just fuck with me (yeah, baby)

You hid my work in your crib from the feds

Girl, I love you like I love my bread

And girl I'm stuck wit' you, baby

Stuck with me, baby

Gave you all of me baby, yeah (yeah, yeah, baby)

(You-oo, oo-oo)

(You-oo, oo-oo)

I could say a thousand times how I'm down for real

You know where I'm from for real

Ain't nothin' to add another kill, bae
