[English]

We've been knowin' about each other for a while now

Ain't no past we could have taken for this lifestyle

I had a girl, you had a man but that was long ago

Evolvin' daily, please don't judge me, it was long ago

I know you ain't gonna wait forever

I know that it's gonna take more effort

You ain't gotta tell me what I gotta do to prove it to you, I know

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

(Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm)

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

(Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm)

ATL, you're on call

I just toured, I just balled

I got time now, girl I'm ready

You so fed up, you won't test me

You say I say that I'm busy

Way too much but you still miss me

I still fuck you, you still kiss me

Let all your resentment go

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

(Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm)

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

(Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm)

Yuh, I been thirsty since before your water broke

I been thirsty since before Tha Carter IV

You teach Spanish and you work nights in the club

Life is falling into place, but not in love

I'm still tryna see you even though I fucked already

I ain't kick you out even after I bust already

You think that I'll choose another woman over you

Fuck talkin', I'ma show you

Baby take me serious (Fuck talkin', fuck talkin')

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

(Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm)

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

Baby take me serious

(Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm)

(Fuck talkin', fuck talkin', fuck talkin', fuck talkin')

(Fuck talkin', fuck talkin', fuck talkin', fuck talkin')
