Why you drive so fast?
Why you drive so fast?
Girl where you gotta go?
Girl where you gotta go?
Baby you should try and drive slow
You should try and drive slow
'Cause you're going 45 on a 15
I'm just trynna stay alive on the big screen
When you coming up to drive all the kids scream
I don't know babygirl you moving on to better things
Why you drive so
I don't have the time
I'm just trynna get mine
He's at it again
He's at it again
It happened my friend
I had to pretend cause I’m only in the city for a minute
And I know that you've been trying to get in it and I'm with it but
Your looking like you fell in love tonight
For pete's sake, saw me pull it together
We hooked up one time it was kind of whatever but
Would you believe me if I said I was drunk?
Maybe I want you to want me but only tonight
[Jaden Smith]
Why you drive so fast?
Why you drive so fast?
Girl where you gotta go?
Girl where you gotta go?
Baby you should try and drive slow
(Drive slow homie)
'Cause you're going 45 on a 15
I'm just trynna stay alive on the big screen
When you coming up to drive all the kids scream
I don't know babygirl you moving on to better things
Usually you don't be used to me using you
You saw the truth in me
This is all new to you, damn
This is love in the fast lane
New benz, top down with the back stained
I was trynna give you jay's and some fast brain
You was trynna give me k's and your last name
Boy I think I should leave
'Cause there's a flaw in the system
I don't really know why but I miss him
It was something in his eyes when I kissed him
Listen, feeling like I can't dismiss him
For pete's sake, saw me pull it together
‘Cause you got a girl and she thinks it's forever
I know she love you if you'd only let her
Cause I'm a mistake, we both could do better
Why you drive so fast?
Why you drive so fast?
Girl where you gotta go?
Girl where you gotta go
Baby you should try and drive slow (drive slow)
You should try and drive slow
'Cause you're going 45 on a 15
I'm just trynna stay alive on the big screen
When you coming up to drive all the kids scream
I don't know babygirl you moving on to better things
Why you drive so
(Why you drive so fast?
Why you drive so fast?
Girl where you gotta go?
Girl where you gotta go?
Baby you should try and drive slow)
