[Part I: B0mbs in the Ville]

[Intro]
Yeah

[Verse 1]
I want to lock it down, make time for you
Chocolate brown, what sign are you?
I don’t know, but I got a feeling that can’t be stopped
Hugged up with you in the parking lot
Outside the whip with my s*it on a rock
Lips so soft with the strawberry gloss

You make a n!gga fall like a Marberry cross
Late-night calls, I got calls to cut off my broads for you
Great-white shark just like Jaws, I’ll rock the boat for you

[Chorus]
I got high hopes for you, yeah (For you, for you, for you, for you, for you)
I got high hopes for you, mhm (For you, for you, for you, for you, for you)

[Verse 2]
B!tch, I’m a star, yeah, but I’d never shine (Know that)
Built the tallest wall, come and see behind (Come feel that)
B0mbs in The Ville, violent all the times (I feel that)
When the smoke clears, you is who I’ll find
Let’s run away (Let’s run away, let’s run away-ay-ay)
Heard somebody said they on top now? I’ll pull up to see if you there
I’ve been counting up M’s in the background, still moving low-key, I’m rare
Remember the spot you met me? I’ll pull up to see if you there
I was hoping you ain’t forget me (Forget me)

[Part II: Hit the Gas]

[Interlude]
(Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
And the girls is not something I do (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
Had the master braids ’cause I was too (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)

Fu*ked up in the head, I felt confused (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
Sure glad I ran back into you (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
I was scared you found somebody new (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
Ran off and had a child or two (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
I know I said I wasn’t gon’ shave (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
But all the past done allowed my ways (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
Focus up, n!gga, I’m going through things, going through things (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
Going through things, going through things (Gyatt, damn, she got it, damn, gyatt, damn, she got it, damn)
Times not slowing down (Focus up, n!gga, I’m going through things, going through things)
We need you around (Going through things, going through things)
I need you around, around (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse]
Fu*k with your n!gga, I’m going through things
Grey hairs on my head, mean I know a few things
I bought a iPhone that travels through time
FaceTime done got younger me on the line
Soon as he saw me he just started crying
I told him, “Relax, everything gon’ be fine”
He wiped off his face and said he tryna be strong
But some days he feel like he doing it wrong
I told him, “Hold on,” and passed out my phone to my oldest son
And my youngest one said, I want you to look them straight in their face
Do that look like you’ve been making mistakes?
Fame is a drug, you was chosen to take
Unfortunately, can’t be sober and great
You’re just like a flower the world wanna hold
They sniff on your petals until you get old
And then they dispose, a new flower grows
Can’t take a person, that’s just how it go
Soon you gon’ know that your high coming down
And that’s the point that I’ll call you from now
This is The Fall-Off, I’m falling off, how?
The rappers do when they can’t find a new sound
Missing the day they was hotter year ’round
But life is a film that cannot be rewound

[Outro]
(Life is a film that cannot be rewound)
(Life is a film that cannot be rewound)
(Life is a film that cannot be rewound)
(Rewound, cannot be rewound)
