Lyrics[]
There's nothing I want but money in time
Million dollar bills in a tick tick tick tick
There's nothing more cruel
Than only nine lives
A limit in spite
Will do the trick trick trick trick
We can leave the house, lead the party, let the people know
Go drown the colors of our minds and watch the cars go
There's nothing as fun as coming untied
And running with the kids in the park park park park
There's nothing that's hurt like letting you go
It's like a bird eyes in the dark dark dark dark
We can leave the house, lead the party, let the people know
Go drown the colors of our minds and watch the cars go
It's not about just being out with all our people
Cause we can get in trouble just by going free flow
And now I'm letting you know and now I'm letting you know
And now I'm letting you know and now I'm letting you know
