Oh yeah

...

I'm making friends with my consequence

Way up high like my consciousness

Keep my heels tall

My ego small

But I'm still grande

I'm making cents off of your nonsense

All that shit talk keeps me well fed

Through thick and thin

You're so locked in

You hate to love me

...

Extra, extra

Buy one, take me

Sexy how you come

To see it's true

You need me like I, you

'Cause no one ****s you like I do

Extra, extra

Buy one, take me

Sexy how you come (Oh yeah)

To see it's true

You need me like I, you

'Cause no one ****s you like I do

I've been busy keeping your girl inspired

...

I know my brain gives you ideas

Stay on your mind like all the time

Yeah, you still watching from the sides

Yeah, you still, still show up first in line

Yeah, you act like all your love is mine

Still, still mine, baby

I guess you really love me, yeah

Extra, extra

...

Buy one, take me (Take me)

Sexy how you come

To see it's true (See it's true)

You need me like I, you (Mmm, mmm)

'Cause no one ****s you like I do (Oh yeah)

Extra, extra

Buy one, take me

Sexy how you come

To see it's true

You need me like I, you (Like I, you)

'Cause no one ****s you like I do
