Raw
Ya want that, ya gotta have that. I know you need that, you gotta have that.
Ya want that, ya gotta have that. I know you need that, you gotta have that.
Now get that paper, make the paper, you know I'm a come and save ya.
You know where I live, I got them million dollar neighbors.
I came through your block lookin so clean, the chicks like damn, he got the shoulder lean.
You can touch it, you can grab it, if you like it you can have it.
We flyin way far, girl I make that your habit. I'm caked out to def , you rocked out to def, I make ya spend it all til it aint nothing left.
(Course)
I'm a have to spit it like this, say the same thing with a little twist.
Soft sweet aint workin no more No. I'm fittin to give it to ya raw so.
Your 22's aint nothing new. You out hustelin, you better bring it in.
Soft sweet aint workin no more No. I'm fittin to give it to ya raw so
Now you can say bye, to me being lady like. Say peace to me trying to keep the peace.
It aint work then, you only heard me. But now you listening when I go crazy.
Get in line, when I lose my mind. I found out, I gotta get you mad, for you to make me glad.
(Course)
Soooo I'm
I'm a have to spit it like this, say the same thing with a little twist.
Soft sweet aint workin no more No. I'm fittin to give it to ya raw so.
Your 22's aint nothing new. You out hustelin, you better bring it in.
Soft sweet aint workin no more No. I'm fittin to give it to ya raw so raw
Since your so street, I'm a bring it to your level.
Imagine I'm you're new connect you bout to meet tomorrows.
Keeping me happy is so important.
'cause I'm the one who can keep us ballin.
You need to take that, apply to us.(apply it to us)
All that hard work, apply to us.(apply it to us)
If you want me to be the girl that you love.
(Course)
Soooo I'm
I'm a have to spit it like this, say the same thing with a little twist.
Soft sweet aint workin no more No. I'm fittin to give it to ya raw so.
Your 22's aint nothing new. You out hustlin, you better bring it in.
Soft sweet aint workin no more No. I'm fittin to give it to ya raw so
I'm fittin to give it to ya raw so. All my girls just give it to em raw so
Them boys with no game we aint foe.
