Diana Gordon speaking to Noisey:

[Verse 1]
Lay low, 'til the morning
Take time, for the dawning
Stay woke, act acordin'
That's a callin', that's a warning, oh, oh
They be fallin', 'cause I'm hot like, like New Orleans
My life, it's a story, count my blessings, and give Him glory
[Pre-Chorus]
Momma said she had a dream
Always bangin' on that tambourine
And you know she had to make a scene
That's why I left home when seventeen
[Chorus]
Had to hustle everyday
'Cause I don't know no other way
But I know you know what I mean
Why I cut it up like Wolverine
[Verse 2]
Big bro, that my lil' sis, 'round here that's some membership
Love my ass and my lil' tits
And with two hands, get a good grips

[Pre-Chorus]
Momma said she had a dream
Always bangin' on that tambourine
And you know she had to make a scene
That's why I left home when seventeen
[Chorus]
Had to hustle everyday
'Cause I don't know no other way
But I know you know what I mean
Why I cut it up like Wolverine
[Verse 3]
I was on the loose, on a weekend
Wasn't tryna be here, I was tryna be there
Always had a friend and a hand to hold, too
And every now and then, I think about you
I was on the road, I was tryna make moves
Miss a couple goals and now they really come through
It's been a couple years since I seen you
You know we still cool, woah, oh
I'm on the way, woah, oh
It's a holiday, woah, oh
I'm on the way, woah, oh
I'm on the way, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Momma said she had a dream
Always bangin' on that tambourine
And you know she had to make a scene
That's why I left home when seventeen
[Chorus]
Had to hustle everyday
'Cause I don't know no other way
But I know you know what I mean
Why I cut it up like Wolverine
