[English]
All my pride goes out the windowAnd never with you (ooh)
I can't change you, oh-ooh
My girls told me, "Take it slow", but they don't know what I know
Say you need to stay composed, but they don't know what I know
Told me I should leave you alone, told me, "Stay your ass at home"
But I don't mind
Cou-cou-could've been a good girl, but I won't be
I'ma turn one night to a whole week
Look at me now, I'm inside out, so wild
I'ma let you control me
G-g-give it to me good like you own me
All my pride goes out the window
When I'm with you
When I'm with you
When I'm with you
Oh yeah, just look how you got me
Got me out of my body
D-d-d-dealin', dealin' with a certified winner
Michelin Star's how I like my dinner
Said you wanna stick around, go figure
Everybody does, I'm what everybody wants
Everybody sees, I'm on everybody's screens
She make everybody jump, I make everybody scream
Tell me this ain't the baddest back-to-back you ever seen
I could put you on a map and she could take you overseas
Quick trip, won't wait, and I'm there for you (oh)
Good girl, I'll dare, but I'm bad for you (hey)
Elevate my space and my bed for you
Anyways, any day, I make plans for you
(I like that) like it when you tell me what to do
(I like that) like it when you tell me, "Break the rules" (oh)
I like that, sat of me when we get together
I'm way better
When I'm with you
When I'm with you
When I'm with you
Oh yeah, just look how you got me
Got me out of my body
When I'm with you (I need you now, no-now, no-now)
When I'm with you (now, no-now, no-now, no-now, now)
When I'm with you (now, no-now, no-now, no-now, no-now)
Oh yeah, just look how you got me
Got me out of my body
I must be out of my, out of my, out of my mind
Can't tell me nothing 'bout, nothing 'bout
Nothing 'bout mine (oh, nothin' 'bout mine)
You must be out of your, out of your, out of your mind
Can't tell me nothing 'bout, nothing 'bout, nothing 'bout mine
I must be out of my, out of my (I must be), out of my mind (I must be)
Can't tell me nothing 'bout, nothing 'bout, nothing 'bout mine (mine)
You must be out of your, out of your, out of your mind (out my mind)
Can't tell me nothing 'bout, nothing 'bout, nothing 'bout mine
