“The Lay Down” is conceived as an extremely soulful and sexually-charged anthem, perfect for a romantic night.
In order to reach the best result possible, the American rapper and singer DRAM has managed to assemble a stellar cast of guests: the producer watt, who has collected an impressive number...
[Intro: DRAM]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh‚ ahh
Ooh‚ ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1: DRAM]
I prefer we go upstairs‚ hey
'Cause I want to show you my room
And this California King size
Feel how nice the sheets are
Perfect thing to sleep on or freak on
Just in case you wanted to, baby
[Chorus: DRAM]
’Cause I wanna lay it down wit' you
And I ain't tryn’ play round with you
And I wanna lay it down wit' you
And go to sleep, after we
[Verse 2: H.E.R. & DRAM]
This bedroom's nice and candle-lit (Ooh‚ ahh)
I've been in it dreamin' of you (You, you, you‚ you)
It's like honey suckle flowers
Stay a couple hours 'til the morning after
You don't have to but I’m glad to
Spend the end of eve with you
(Spend the eve with you, you, you)
[Chorus: DRAM & H.E.R., DRAM]
’Cause I wanna lay it down wit' you
(Wanna lay it down wit’ you)
And I ain't tryn' play round with you
(I'm not tryna be like a fool)
And I wanna lay it down wit’ you (Ooh)
And go to sleep, after we (Go to sleep, after we, oh)
[Bridge: Watt & DRAM, Watt, H.E.R.]
Bad vibrations from my phone
Can't blow my high on airplane mode
My services belong to you
The signal's strong, we set the mood
I said, bad vibrations from my phone
Can't blow my high on airplane mode
Tonight I just belong to you
The signal's strong, we set the mood (Ooh, ooh)
The signal's strong, we set the mood
(Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo)
(Yeah)
[Outro: DRAM]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ahh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
