How you gonna top yourself?
When there is nobody else?
How you gonna do it by yourself?
Cause I'm not gonna be here to help you
Yeah! Alright
How you gonna top yourself?
When there is nobody else?
How you gonna do it by yourself?
Cause I'm not gonna be here to help you
How you gonna do it alone?
When I don't pick up my phone?
I'd love to give a dog a bone
But I'm not gonna stick around to help you
Yeah! Alright
Yeah, how you gonna stop yourself? When
Your man stops ringing your bell (ringing your bell)
You're right between heaven and hell
And you're gonna need the good lord to help you
How I'm gonna make you see (make you see)
That this is ain't to be (way to be)
See you've been digging it all for free
Guess you better get yourself a sugar daddy to help you
Yeah, uh-uh!
Top yourself
Such a little girl like a spinning time mama, but she
Spinning out of control, yeah
Take sleeping with a snake like usual
Rip apart my soul, yeah!
Yeah, rip apart my soul
Rip apart my soul
Yeah! Mmm
Well, how you gonna rock yourself to sleep
When I give up my midnight creep, girl
How you gonna get that deep
When you're daddy ain't here to do it to you
Yeah, how you gonna do it alone?
When I don't pick up my phone?
I'd love to give a dog a bone
But I'm not gonna stick around to help you
Yeah, yeah! Mmm
Alright! Yeah! Hey! Uh-huh, yeah!
Mmm
Yeah
Top yourself
