“This Is How We Do” is a record for those who throw the night away. It’s an ode to having a good time.
…Definitely not to be confused with The Game’s track, “How We Do” (featuring 50 Cent, where they “make a move and act a fool while [they’re] up in the club.”
[Intro]
This is how we do
This is how we do (Oh-oh)
[Verse 1]
Sipping on Rosé
Silver Lake sun coming up all lazy (This is how we do)
Slow cooking pancakes for my boy
Still up, still fresh as a daisy (Oh-oh)
Playing ping pong all night long
Everything's all neon and hazy (This is how we do)
Chanel this, Chanel that, hell yeah
All my girls vintage Chanel, baby (Oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
It's no big deal
It's no big deal
It's no big deal
This is no big deal
[Chorus]
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting, yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting, yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do (Oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Big hoops and maroon lips
My clique hopping in my Maserati (This is how we)
Santa Barbara-chic at La Super Rica
Grabbing tacos, checking out hotties (Oh-oh)
Now we talkin' astrology
Getting our nails did all Japanese-y (This is how we do)
Day drinking at the Wildcat
Sucking real bad at Mariah Carey-oke (Oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
It's no big deal
It's no big deal (Uh-uh)
It's no big deal
This is no big deal
[Chorus]
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting, yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting, yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do
[Bridge]
Yo, this one goes out to the ladies at breakfast, in last night's dress
Uh-huh, I see you (It's how we do, straight stunting like that, uh-huh)
Yo, this goes out to all you kids that still have their cars at the club valet
And it's Tuesday (It's how we do, straight stunting like that, uh-huh)
Yo, shoutout to all you kids buying bottle service with your rent money
Respect! (It's how we do, straight, yeah)
[Chorus]
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting, yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting, yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do (Hey, oh)
This is how we do (Woo!)
[Breakdown]
(This is how we do)
This goes out to all you people going to bed with a ten and waking up with a two
(This is how we do)
(It's how we do, straight stunting like that, uh-huh) Ha, not me
[Chorus]
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting, yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do (It's how we do, straight stunting like that)
What? Wait
No, no, no, no, bring the beat back (Oh-oh)
That's right
This is how we do
Uh-oh
This is how we do
Uh-oh
