President
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hold back, the grudge, won’t let you be the judge
There’s no room for it, just throw some love on it
You watch me, my walk
My I don’t give a
If I get enough of it, I’ll throw some love on it
Uh uh huhhhh, uh uh huhhhhhh
Don’t hold back, go throw some love on it
On it, on it, on it
Throw it, throw it, throw it
Get it, get it, get it
I do it like a, a I got it
I remember what they used to say
I remember what they used to say
Why they always tryin’ to talk me straight
No sir, no sir, no way way way
There is nothing that this heart can’t do
There is nothing that this heart can’t do
Why they always tryin’ to talk me straight
No sir, no sir, no way way way
My make-up, my cut, my innocent
They tough enough they throw me off
I throw it back at them
Slap back, like ah
Like really, really off
Put a lid on it
I’ll throw some love on it
Uh uh huhhhh, uh uh huhhhhhh
Don’t hold back, go throw some love on it
On it, on it, on it
Throw it, throw it, throw it
Get it, get it, get it
I do it like a, a I got it
I remember what they used to say
I remember what they used to say
Why they always tryin’ to talk me straight
No sir, no sir, no way way way
There is nothing that this heart can’t do
There is nothing that this heart can’t do
Why they always tryin’ to talk me straight
No sir, no sir, no way way way
Her call, her princess call, her president, president
Don’t call her princes call her president, president
Everyone used to tell me to get my shit together
But did I get my shit together?
Ermmmm (laugh)
I remember what they used to say
I remember what they used to say
Why they always tryin’ to talk me straight
No sir, no sir, no way way way (way, ay ay)
There is nothing that this heart can’t do
There is nothing that this heart can’t do
Why they always tryin’ to talk me straight
No sir, no sir, no way way way
Way, ay ay
Way, ay ay
Way, ay ay
