Polo, Polo Polo G (CashMoneyAP) hmm Bad lil' thing from New York, her heart is too sore She feel all alone, but I've been there before She just like it when you say less and do more Baby, we not vibin' if it's too forced Tired of cryin', she done cried all her last cries She, been heartbroken for the last time Girl, if I wasn't so heartless, you could have mine I was in the slums, thuggin' with the bad guys Countin' millions, flyin' private just to pass time And every time I hit the road, I'm on the cash grind It's hard adaptin' to this life, I live the fast kind But we can rock until I'm spittin' out my last rhyme How many times we gotta argue 'fore we get it right? 'Cause it been long days and bitter nights We could talk about it, it ain't sh- for you to get a flight Went through some things that made me see you in a different light I ain't stuntin' these h-, I'm just livin' life But if we fall off, could I still call for some quick advice? Turned into strangers, still remember what your kiss is like Lights off, hands on your waist, always grip it tight Tryna figure out my feelings, I'm confusin' you Where I'm from, happy endings are unusual If looks could kill, they'd be cryin' at my funeral And even when you're mad, girl, you're still so beautiful, uh Bad lil' thing from New York, her heart is too sore She feel all alone, but I've been there before She just like it when you say less and do more Baby, we not vibin' if it's too forced Tired of cryin', she done cried all her last cries She, been heartbroken for the last time Girl, if I wasn't so heartless, you could have mine I was in the slums, thuggin' with the bad guys You said you'd never make me cry That's right before you made me cry Said you ain't like them other guys Then you led me to my demise I never should've gave it to you in the first place And why the f- I move in with you in that first place? I-I was the first one to put you up on that Hermès Exotic beaches, just layin' there like a mermaid Could've took your surname, kept you from them bird-brains Now you in my burn book, f- you and what's-her-name I'd rather physical, emotional's the worst pain You triggerin' my anxiety in the worst way Sometimes, the best thing you could do is step away I'll always be the one that you let get away Put on our favorite song and I just let it play Pull out the get-at and I might just let it spray Bad lil' thing from New York, her heart is too sore She feel all alone, but I've been there before She just like it when you say less and do more Baby, we not vibin' if it's too forced Tired of cryin', she done cried all her last cries She, been heartbroken for the last time Girl, if I wasn't so heartless, you could have mine I was in the slums, thuggin' with the bad guys Hmm, I'll be gone, I'll be gone, I'll be gone Told my b-, "Pick me up in the mornin'" Gone, I'll be gone, I'll be gone This is toxic, don't act like it's normal This is toxic, don't act like it's normal
