[Verse 2: Masego]
(Uh, yeah, listen) Sixth grade, met a girl, got curved, kinda hurt, but I learned she loved that sax
Begged mom and I learned got good, real good, first chair and I got her back
Self-taught radio every day 'til the day that girl stopped lovin' me
So I say, "Why you stop?" She said, "Jamie Foxx funny, man" and I played those keys
So I played those keys
Snuck into church and I slayed those keys
Kicked outta class 'cause they hatin' on me
Never let a man put a grade on me
I just want her heart
I don’t care about that grade or thing, I just need that girl near me
So I learned and I learned, I swear I’m the best ever
I swear I’m a legend, I'm 'a get whatever I want, girl, I say that

When speaking to VIBE, Masego spoke about this track and “I Do Everything (More For Cruisin')”:

I play keys, drums, bass, guitar, accordion, marimba, trumpet, harmonica, MPC and the kazoo. I will eff up the kazoo.
