“Handshakes” is a single from Pouya’s 2018 sophomore album, FIVE FIVE. The song serves as a warning to the fake people around Pouya who leach off of him and try to use him for their own benefit.
[Chorus]
Don't you turn your back to me, I made the lane you walk today
I just want your loyalty, don't let this be one more mistake
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
Don't you turn your back to me, I made the lane you walk today
I just want your loyalty, don't let this be one more mistake
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
[Verse]
I pour water on the roots of every rapper that I touch
Pay your homage when you see me sacrifice your woman's guts
As a retainer to your life
Baby don't wanna get involved with a man like me
I got some issues I can't be yo Mr. Right
I pave my own lanes, I surf my own waves
I did it my own way for that peso, I stack my queso
From the getgo, I was glowing
And flowin' sicker than most of these rappers
Now they linger around my finger watch out for my trigger
I can't rock with you bitch, you wanna be famous
Poppin pussy for me lookin' oh, so shameless
See me on the TV yellin' out explicit language
Fuck the population this degenerate generation
[Chorus]
Don't you turn your back to me, I made the lane you walk today
I just want your loyalty, don't let this be one more mistake
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
Don't you turn your back to me, I made the lane you walk today
I just want your loyalty, don't let this be one more mistake
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
Inside plotting on me, outside handshakes
