Before You Depart
Let's touch down in your city
Send me your location, I'll arrive in a minute
Know it's overdue, wish our timing was different
You fought me for my efforts, but this life is unwitting
You know times, you be trippin' now
Shawty, I'm not surprised
Fire in your eyes, yeah, I do admire
You and I, it's do or die
So when I'm on the road, you know I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
You know I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
I'm gon' hold it down
I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
Uh, she said I'm going somewhere I don't know with someone I don't know
I asked what's the reason she said "Me and you don't flow"
Every time you see me, you be drunk plus you don't smoke
I said "Name a place to take you that's where we'll both slide"
Why you never post us ain't this something you don't hide
Tell me that that's someone she been seeing that's on the side
Damn, maybe I cut it off and go find somebody else
Tell me, stop stressing like I'm doing this for my health
Brothers, don't tell me I should be focused on myself
This is all new to me, this something I never felt
Thought she'd stay true to me, is there any real ones left?
Let's touch down in your city
Send me your location, I'll arrive in a minute
Know it's overdue, wish our timing was different
You fought me for my efforts, but this life is unwitting
You know times, you be trippin' now
Shawty, I'm not surprised
Fire in your eyes, yeah, I do admire
You and I, it's do or die
So when I'm on the road, you know I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
You know I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
I'm gon' hold it down, hm
I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
When you ready, know who to dial, girl
I'ma always hold you down
Even when you're not around, girl
I'ma always make you proud
And I hate when I have to double-text you
Thinking 'bout all the shit I'm 'bout to unscrew
I hate blowing up your phone, what you tryna do?
I'm putting together all the shit we gon' do
I get the late-night text, know what's next
I'm outside and you're undressed
You suggest that I head out now
Let's touch down in your city
Send me your location, I'll arrive in a minute
Know it's overdue, wish our timing was different
You fought me for my efforts, but this life is unwitting
You know times, you be trippin' now

Fire in your eyes, yeah, I do admire
You and I, it's do or die
So when I'm on the road, you know I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
You know I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
I'm gon' hold it down
I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
I'm gon' hold it down
I'm, I'm gon' hold it down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down

Send me your location, I'll arrive in a minute
Know it's overdue, wish our timing was different
