This is a state of emergency

Hey, hun

Show me what you got, lil mama

Show me what you got, pretty lady

Show me what you got, shorty

Show me what you got, baby

Hands up and waves (show em what you got)

Give the drummer some

Shit I already gave the summer some

It's the winter's turn

Hovie Hov is the coldest

I'm just getting better with time

I'm like Opus One

Young, no two alike like a snowflake

Okay, Show me what you got baby

Words is slurring, engine purring

Mami front, but I'm so determined

Shots of Patron, now she in the zone

I ain't talking bout the 2-3

Mami in the zone like the homie two-three

Jordan or James, makes no difference

We all ballin the same

Nigga, I am the Mike Jordan of recording

Nigga, you might want to fall back from recording

Shit that you write is not important

So it forced him to go for the hype

For being brave they may applaud him

But misery, I will assure them

Aww baby, just ignore them

Truth or dare mami, listen and learn

I got a drop, I just took off the top

It's your turn

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hun

Show me what you got, lil mama

Show me what you got, pretty lady

Show me what you got, shorty

Show me what you got, baby

Hands up and waves

And waves

Hands up and waves

And waves

Show me what you got, lil mama

Show me what you got, pretty lady

Show me what you got, shorty

Show me what you got, baby

Hands up and waves (show em what you got)

Waves (show em what you got)

Waves (show em what you got)

Waves

Hun

H.O.V.A., gold bottles of that ace of spade

Why even fool with these other guys, they all stingy

All these dudes know how to say is gimme

Gimme some ass, gimme some brain

Gimme your number, gimme your name

But if I get one night baby girl, I swear

I'll make you tell these other dudes gimme got you here

I'll take you shopping, take long trips

I'll take the cork off, you can take sips

I'll take you there, take my time

Take you clothes off, you take off mine

Ma, show me what you got

Hovie in the spot, tried to told you I was hot

Tell these other dudes it's a wrap

Get the fuck out the throne you clone, the King's back!

Y'all got less than 2 months to get y'all thing together

Good luck

Show me what you got, lil mama

Show me what you got, pretty lady

Show me what you got, shorty

Show me what you got, baby

Hands up and waves (show em what you got)

Waves (show em what you got)

Waves (show em what you got)

Waves

Hun

Show me what you got, lil mama

Show me what you got, pretty lady

Show me what you got, shorty

Show me what you got, baby

Hands up and waves (show em what you got)
