Smooth Ways
I put women on layaway. Hey!
It does not cost a cent to toss
So love your McDonald tray
Go ahead, want it all
I wont crush your dreams big or small
Rather brake up than to fall. Shameful you all are
wasting them numerous calls
Chances of you knowing me
I’m not concerned
Fast forward past a toss or turn cause tin man
burned his heart
Follow the road to the red bricked apartment
Women cook the food never opened in my kitchen
and I eat while they stay starvin
Call it dedication
I'm testing patience, seeing if you can stay
wastin away and psychologically
your paying for what one girl did one day
Yeah, her name was Carry
I find engagement scary, the population too vast
I can travel through January's Februarys, and December
drinking bloody Mary’s cause they help me not remember
I drink to you and things we do
I'm down with the Bacardi
Breakfast in the morning please
The vending machines in the lobby
Them jokers tryna rob me
Don’t think that I don’t care
I cared enough to use my lines
and I might keep you here
to vibe with me ride with me
in my rent-a -car
as long as you drive a girl
They don’t care who you really are
I’m the star that stole your wish
You kiss like your breaking a spell, ha
Stop waitin
These thoughts test my patience
I am rapture chicken in grease
You young women lack education
Hungry, parched, starvin every heart beat
fuels no elation
