[Verse 1]
I got a question, do you mind if I approach you?
And if I'm wrong, I'm gone, but you look like who I belong to
Your remind me of my Jeep (Jeep)
My TLC, let's creep (Creep)
The match, ka-boom, like me (Like me)
Be the vocal to my beat (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Normally, this ain't somethin' I try to do
I see somethin' different in you, tryna catch a vibe with you
Pick a destination, tryna find somewhere to fly with you
Maybe it can grow to somethin' once I plant a seed or two, ooh, ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, be the garden to my flower
Drippin', drench me good, I love how them tulips make me sprout up
You tryna be my homie, lover, partner
She said, "We turn the B-E-D into Paris, if I fell on your tower"
[Chorus]
Now, let's take it up a notch (Oh-ooh-woah)
Maybe it don't have to be so lonely at the top (Oh-ooh-woah)
Maybe we can drive a couple foreigns off the lot (Skrrt)
You ain't gotta change for me, girl, just be who you are (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Hope you understand I'm not just anybody (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
This ain't nothin' new to me, I've been about it (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Hope you don't try to play me for a fool, yeah (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
'Cause, girl, you got me breakin' all my rules (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Can't believe you got me breakin' all my rules
[Verse 2]
I live by the code and I die by the code (Code)
You might be the exception, girl, 'cause you know you cold (Damn, you cold)
You remind me of my pick, I'd love to kick it with you
You're the canvas to my brush, we paint a different picture
Usually, I try to play it cool
I can see the difference since I've been buildin' with you
Let's take a vacation, know the perfect place to fly us to
Maybe it can grow to somethin', once I plant a seed or two, ooh, ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, be the garden to my flower
Drippin', drench me good, I love how them tulips make me sprout up
You tryna be my homie, lover, partner
She said, "We turn the B-E-D into Paris, if I fell on your tower"
[Chorus]
Now, let's take it up a notch (Oh-ooh-woah)
Maybe it don't have to be so lonely at the top (Oh-ooh-woah)
Maybe we can drive (Maybe we can drive) a couple foreigns off the lot (Skrrt)
You ain't gotta change (You ain't gotta change) for me, girl, just be who you are (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Hope you understand I'm not just anybody (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
This ain't nothin' new to me, I've been about it (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Hope you don't try to play me for a fool, yeah (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
'Cause, girl, you got me breakin' all my rules (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Can't believe you got me breakin' all my rules
[Outro]
Hope you understand I'm not just anyboby (I'm not just anybody)
This ain't nothin' new to me, I've been about it (You know I've been about it)
Can't believe you got me breakin' all my rules
