[English]

Ohhh my momma told me

Murder dem it's hunting time

Ay my momma told me

Go for it it's hunting time

Then my poppa told me

Kill em all it's hunting time.(sunrise)

Everybody now aim

Let's go.

Girl you move like an animal

Way you moving is so wild

Say nobody can handle you

I'll show you how it goes down

And I just wanna take you home

Hear my gun as it goes pow

I'll be putting your lights out yeahhh.

And nobody can move the way you do (let's go)

Nobody can love you like I do.

Till the sunrise.

Till the what, Till the what

Till the what, Till the what.

Till the sunrise.

Till the what, Till the what

Till the what, Till the what.

Till the sunrise

Till the sunriseee.

I see blood on the dance floor

As I'm watching you go wild

I'll be hitting you once more

I wanna see you go down

And we coming with guns blazing

Cuz we turning up so loud

I'll be putting your lights out yeahhh.

And nobody can move the way you do

Nobody can love you like I do

And nobody can move the way you do

Nobody can love you like I do.

Till the sunriseee.

Till the what, Till the what

Till the what, Till the what.

Till the sunriseee.
