Big money on ya' visa
Only way you get her, only way she won't leave ya
She said, "How much you think it cost for this weave, huh?"
You like the way it look? Well baby, it's gon' cost some
Spoiled, look good, she like real leather
She like exotic trips, good weather
All you got to offer is to love her better, better than the rest
I told her, "You ain't need a dime to be better than the best"
Thought it would impress, picked her a bouquet
She only want new boots like Beyonce
She like I got dreams that'll one day pay
She looking at you like "Baby, I ain't got time to waste"
