For real, I know we from different sides and all

And I ain't even gonna lie, I'm a thug

But I got a question for you

Could you see yourself fallin for somebody like me?

What's up?

So what you wanna do?

A girl like me, a guy like you

What we could do

It's whatever, baby

Anything that we want to (I'm so confused)

Will I fall for a thug like you?

Could you see yourself fallin' for somebody like me?

And, um, in fact if you could, I got money now

Can you see yourself if you had to move back up in the hood?

Now durin' sex, lay there, I'mma have to ask if it's good

This rap stuff's stressful, let's go see if we could relax in the woods

When I first met you at the bus stop lookin' all shy-like

Tellin' your friends how much that you hated my type

But I'm bettin' to change, and I wanna put the game on it

Put the Range on it and powerful things on it

Sooner or later probably have tattoos with my name on it

Now look, I like to live fast

I'm addicted to cash, the 45 on the dash

And you know me, if you know me, O.G., I'm down to act bad

I need more than a friend but not quite a relationship

A girl I come off on tour I can't wait to get with

Not the stupid chick, the one I probably could vacation with

You gotta go somewhere, don't even trip

You know what, Boo, go 'head take the six

Now you gotta make a choice either wrong or right

Tried before? Maybe you just need a thug in your life, what's up

So what you wanna do? (Huh)

A girl like me, a guy like you (What, what)

What we could do (Huh, say what, say what)

It's whatever, baby

Anything that we want to (Boy, you keep askin' me)

Will I fall for a thug like you? (Oh...oh...oh...) (What, say what)

You keep, keep on askin' me (Askin' me)

If I say if I wanna be with you (Huh, what, what ya gonna do, what ya gonna do)

The tough part is to think I could (Huh, what)

Fall for some body like you (Huh, say what, huh, what, say what)

See, you advanced, took a couple chances and shit

Chances with bricks, couple chances

Now you sittin' in mansions and shit

You done gambled with this thug and won

Know what I'm sayin', it's thug life

Cock the glock, Pop the glock, drop the top and run

I can't change, I'm too deep in it, so let me know if you're wit' me

Can't make no promises, but if we make it through, Boo

Then sky's the limit

We're on the west on the beach, we takin' trips to the east

Takin' shoppin' sprees 'til they damn near hurt our feet

Got you a five when you like smashed the four

Didn't even wreck, you just laid there and scratched the door

Step out the house, it's more like a fashion show

Anything you want you got that you ain't even gotta ask no more, imagine that

It never really mattered too much to me (It should have)

But you were just too damn ghetto for me (I know, I know) uh, huh

All my girls think I'm not quite ready for you, mmm, hmm

So now I'll try to sneak away to be with you

(A'ight, well, I'm pickin' you up around the corner)

So what you wanna do? (They understand this)

A girl like me, a guy like you (They understand what they don't know)

What we could do (N'I mean)

It's whatever, baby (It's thug love, thug love)

Anything that we want to (It's deeper than they think)

Will I fall for a thug like you (Check it out)

Every woman need a down man (Every man need a clown chick)

Watch those so-called friends (Watch those niggas you hang around with)

I need somebody I could get serious with (I need somebody I can clown with)

It's thug love and I think I found it, flow

So what you wanna do? (Yeah)

A girl like me, a guy like you (I ain't gonna lie, I'm a thug)

What we could do

It's whatever, baby (But you know what)

Anything that we want to (I know how to treat a real woman right)

Will I fall for a thug like you?

Will I fall for this thug?

Will I fall for a thug like you?
