little story

Wouldn't say I'm a lie, but I'm not always honest
I ain't come through, but that's why I ain't promise
You got a face that I could lie to
Light blue lights in your white room
And you're fine too, ooh

Oh yeah, I want you to do it again
I want you to pick up the pen
And write me into your story
You know I love a story
Only when you're the author
Tryna meet you at the altar
Workin' on bein' softer, ooh
'Cause you are a dream to me
Ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh
It's in the way you see through me
Ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh

Still mad I hit the dash on you
After wearin' you down right to the last of you
I was movin' just maybe a little fast for you
Just tell me it belongs in the past
'Cause you gotta face that I could run from
Heartbreak targets in my shotgun
But you're not one, ooh

Oh yeah, I want you to do it again
I want you to love me again
And complete our little story (Story)
We got one hell of a story
You're a hell of an author
You swear I'll leave you at the altar
Workin' on bein' softer, ooh woah
You always been a dream to me
Ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh
It's in the way you see through me
Ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh

any given sunday

[Kehlani, Kehlani & Blxst]
Are you workin', baby?
Are you workin' tonight?
'Cause I got a brand new bag, oh yeah
I just touched down in Miami, babe
Make it rain on your stage any given Sunday

[Kehlani]
The baddest bitch that's in the mirror
Wants to love somebody's daughter right
We just talk for months, I buy her what she want
I splurge and spoil, all the fun
I'm throwin' a paper tantrum at the club (Are you workin' tonight?)
Make it rain on your stage any given Sunday
This shit is presidential, got you stimulated (Ooh)
To you, I'm more than famous (Ooh, ooh)
Call me daddy in front of all your bitches in the lobby
I'll let you come back to the room to smoke as much as you desire
Like it's presidеntial (Ooh, woah)
Like it's my house (Ooh, woah)
Like it's my crеw
No skill, we talkin' 'bout practice (Ooh)
No flame, I'm blowin' out matches (Ooh)
Mustang, it come with no handles
She in love, I wonder what happened

[Kehlani, Kehlani & Blxst]
Are you workin', baby?
Are you workin' tonight?
'Cause I got a brand new bag, oh yeah
I just touched down in Miami, babe (Are you workin' tonight?)
Make it rain on your stage any given Sunday

[Blxst]
Yeah
Fourth time back this week, I'm tweakin'
Got a bag for a walkthrough last weekend, I
Shouldn't be here, but I'm deep in now
This T-Pain song got me thinkin' now
Just be careful, singin' my song, lookin' dead in my eyes like that
Too early to be catchin' a vibe like that (Shee)
Three Suburban trucks, we arrive like that
You ain't seen this much of the sky like that
Might blow one blessing or two (Two)
But I just got one question for you

[Kehlani, Kehlani & Blxst]
Are you workin', baby?
Are you workin' tonight? (Tonight)
'Cause I got a brand new bag, oh yeah (New bag, yeah)
I just touched down in Miami, babe (Are you workin' tonight?)
Make it rain on your stage any given Sunday

[Kehlani]
Are you workin' tonight?
Are you workin', workin' tonight?
Bag, brand new bag, yeah, baby, uh

shooter interlude

And I'm keepin' all this part too

Can I borrow some money? Can you call me an Uber?
My mama needs surgery and my son needs a scooter
Can you start up my start-up? Can you move my maneuver?
I think you need Jesus, I think you need a shooter

So who you be f*ckin'?
Who you been foolin'?
How many bottles you got in your mini cooler?
"S" on your chest, but you never feel super
Do you ever feel stupid?
Do you call out for Cupid?
Can I borrow your chains?
Can I have your last name?
Can I come over later and can I overstay my welcome?
Downplay the helper
Don't say I ever
Borrowed your paper
Don't forget the favors I did for you


Before you blew up
Knew you beforе you grew up
I used to babysit ya
Dated your baby sistеr
I wanted babies with ya
Your daughter's supposed to be mine
Shouldn'ta wasted your time
Put a ring on your finger
'Cause you been datin' lames
And all those famous names
Playin' those famous games

So can I borrow some money? Call me an Uber
My mama needs surgery and my son needs a scooter
Start up my start-up, move my maneuver
I think you need Jesus, think you need a shooter

Think you need a
Think you need a shooter
I think you need Jesus, huh
Think you need a shooter
I think you need

wish i never

And I, and I wish I never
You, yeah, yeah, yeah

I never let 'em win 'less I say so
And I don't show my cards, but I play though
Then put 'em in my bag like my bankroll
This time, that's just not the case though

I was lackin', I ain't proud of it
I know I coulda held it down for real
But you really came to show out (Show out)
Before I knew it, I was top gun, shotgun, got one with me

Never meant what I said to you, baby
Was in character for the animation
You ain't never had this type of stimulation
Had to take it back to play in my favor
It's all love when I see you and your bitch smilin'
Put the gas on it, but I kept the mileage
Seen the bullet comin', but I didn't dodge it quick enough
I wish I never did it
From the bathroom to the kitchen
Wish I woulda kept it pimpin'
Shoulda never took that mission
Never got into your Lambo
Let you shoot it up like Rambo
Now you made me an example
Caught me slippin', I'm so over this
I wish I never

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
And I wish I never
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I usually got the game in a headlock
Known to keep a piece on deadstock
Don't drive him up, don't want no rest stop
Couldn't keep it on the low like bedrock

I was lackin', I ain't proud of it
I know I coulda held it down for real
But you really came to show out (Show out)
Before I knew it, I was turnt out, burnt out, got one with me

Never meant what I said to you, baby
Was in character for the animation
You ain't never had this type of stimulation
Had to take it back to play in my favor
It's all love when I see you and that bitch smilin'
I put the gas on it, but I kept the mileage
Seen the bullet comin', but I didn't dodge it quick enough
I wish I never did it
From the bathroom to the kitchen
Wish I woulda kept it pimpin'
Shoulda never took that mission
Never got into your Lambo
Let you shoot it up like Rambo
Now you made me an example
Caught me slippin', I'm so over this
I wish I never

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
And I wish I never
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) Ooh-oh
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I wish I never

up at night

[Kehlani]
You wonder why I love you
There was never pressure
Easy as I want to
There's just no one better
You think it's calculated
Baby, I'm just not that clever, never

And what could I say?
I knew that it would go this way
Of course you blame it on fate (Fate)
Couldn't let it just escape
Now at the end of our days
I run back thoughts of you

Thoughts of you keep me up at night
Up at night, up at night
Thoughts of you keep me up at night (Keep me up)
Up at night, up at night
Thoughts of you keep me up at-

[Justin Bieber]
I think about all of the ways you turn me on (Turn me on)
And my bed gets lonely whenever you're gonе (Whenever you'rе gone)
But, baby, I'm a wreck without you (You)
All I do is fantasize about you (About you)
You're the light of my life, yeah, I mean it
Girl, you got what I want when I need it
And even when the sun don't shine
I'll be right by your side, holdin' you tight (Holdin' you tight)
And when you feel like nobody cares
I'll be right there to remind you that

[Kehlani]
You keep me up at night (Keep me up)
Up at night, up at night
Thoughts of you keep me up at night (Keep me up)
Up at night, up at night
Thoughts of you keep me up at-

[Kehlani]
And what could I say?
I knew that it would go this way
Of course you blame it on fate (Fate)
(Couldn't let it just escape)
At the end of our days
I run back thoughts of you

[Kehlani]
Thoughts of you keep me up at night
(Up at night) Oh, up at night
Thoughts of you keep me up at night (Up at night)
(Up at) Night, up at night
Thoughts of you keep me up at-

Baby, the thought of you (Uh)
You keep appearin' in my dreams, ha-ha

get me started

[Kehlani]
First, we was touchin' and just kissin' softly
Ended up fussing, can you get up off me?
Gettin' emot-, gettin' emotional
Gettin' emot-, gettin' emotional

It ain't been the same between us
Where's the disconnection? (Oh, oh)
You need somethin' else
Well, maybe she can do it better (Better)
I guess, choose peace over stress (Oh)
Can't clean up your mess
You wanna leave? Be my guest

Pushin' my buttons, you gon' get me started
Call me aggressive, I'm just bein' honest
Ain't gotta do too much, much, much
Hey, this is a little too much, much, much (I am too much)
Why you gotta do so much, much (Much), much? (Much)
You don't gotta do so much, much, much

[Syd]
This ain't no nonchalant, let's have a heart to heart
Talkin' 'bout splittin' up, you thinkin' 'bout givin' up
That's irrever-, that's irreversible
Who gon' get hurt, who gon' get hurt? You don't know

It ain't been the same between us
Where's the disconnection? (Oh, oh)
You need somethin' different
Maybe she can do it better (Better)
I guess, choose peace over stress (Oh)
Won't clean up your mess
If you wanna leave, be my guest

[Kehlani & Syd]
Pushin' my buttons, you gon' get me started
Call me aggressive, I'm just bein' honest
Ain't gotta do too much, much, much
Swear it's just a little too much, much, much (I am too much)
Why you gotta do so much, much (Much), much? (Much)
You ain't gotta so do much, much, much

[Kehlani]
Pushin' my buttons, you gon' get me started (Ah)

more than i should

[Kehlani & Jessie Reyez]
If you knew how long it'd been since I let somebody in
Then you know why I can't look you in the eyes for too long (Can't do it, baby)
If you knew how long it'd been since I felt her on my skin
And why I keep lookin' at the shape in the pants she got on

[Kehlani]
Is it really cheatin' if she ain't lovin' me right?
If she's not touchin' me right?
Leaves me lonely every night?
You give me attention that she can't seem to provide
Put in work to make me smile
Say good mornin' and goodnight

[Kehlani, Jessie Reyez, Both]
And I like the way you treat your mama
'Cause it shows you how somebody will come and treat their woman
I like (I like) the way your phone is open
(F*ck a passcode, man, she cut off mad hoes)
And I like (You)
More than I should, more than I should
And I like (You)
More than I should, more than I should

[Jessie Reyez & Kehlani]
Swear I'm not the type to lie (Not the type)
But I'd feel hella justified (Hella justified)
If I climbed on top and we f*ck tonight away like two wrongs
And my boyfriend isn't loyal (My girlfriend isn't loyal)
His morals in the toilet, that boy is on a voyage
That boy is on a trip (Trip, ah)
You say it might be time for me to dip (Dip, ah)

[Kehlani & Jessie Reyez]
Is it really cheatin' if she ain't lovin' me right?
If she's not touchin' me right?
Leaves me lonely every night?
You give me attention that he can't seem to provide
Put in work to make me smile
Say good mornin' and goodnight

[Kehlani, Jessie Reyez, Both]
And I like (I like) the way you treat your mama
'Cause it shows you how somebody will come and treat their woman
I like (I like) the way your phone is open
(F*ck a passcode, man, she cut off mad hoes)
And I like (You)
More than I should, more than I should
And I like (You)
More than I should, more than I should


[Kehlani]
And I like (You)
And I like (You)
More than I should, more than I should

[Jessie Reyez]
At this point, I'm too tired of holdin' back
At this point, my fantasies got the best of me (And I need it)
At this point, I'm too tired of holdin' back
At this point, my fantasies got the best of me
And I need to pree the unknown, we're both grown
Enough to touch, enough to see what's up
Need to get your ass alone when nobody's home
Just let me touch, let me see what's up with that na-na-na (Yeah)
Yeah-yeah-yeah, let me see what's up with that na-na-na (Mm)
Yeah-yeah-yeah

altar

Fresh white flowers and a new tea light
Nine cups of water, still water
Soon, I'll see your face
Don't know why I ever thought you were far away
I shoulda known better

If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
Now you're closer
Closer, woah
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
Now you're closеr
Closer, woah, woah

Holdin' on to things you told me
Holdin' on to dreams you showеd me
Holdin' on to anything from you
That you've been leavin' here
Now I believe, I swear
I can smell your perfume
Pickin' up your signal like a phonebooth
Keepin' you alive and I do it 'cause I want to

If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer (Closer)
Closer, woah (Now you're closer)
So I put you on the altar, stay just a little bit longer, woah
Laid it out for ya, thought I felt you before
But now you're closer (Closer)
Closer, woah, woah (Closer)

melt

I can't tell where your hair ends and mine begins
If I ain't have all these tattoos, I would think that it's your skin
If I move too quick past you, I would think it's my reflection
Being this close isn't close enough
You could tell every time we touch, every time we, oh

Wish I could build me a cute apartment
One-bedroom right where your heart is
Inch of space feels broken-hearted
Across the bed feels way too far and
I wonder when they see just one, do they see us two?
Ooh, oh

That's when I melt into you, oh-oh-oh
I melt into you, oh
That's when I melt into you
Melt into you, melt into you, oh


Oh
Oh

Matching your breath, follow your chest up and down
Hopin' you let secrets spill out your mouth and
Inhale, exhale, breathe me in
With every breath, I'm sinkin' in
No way to describe it, I'm a riot
If I wake up and I'm somehow beside you
Instead of inside you, that shouldn't surprise you
You don't even notice, no need to remind you

Wish I could build me a cute apartment
One-bedroom right where your heart is
Inch of space feels broken-hearted
Across the bed feels way too far and
I wonder when they see just one, do they see us two?
Oh, oh

That's when I melt into you, oh-oh, I
I melt into you, oh-oh
That's when I melt into you, I, I
I melt into you, I melt into you, oh, I

Where do you end?
Where do I begin?
Start over again
Feels like we're meltin', meltin'
Where do you end?
Where do I begin?
Start over again
Feels like we're meltin', meltin'

tangerine

I get jealous, jealous of every sip
Pineapple water, I can taste it on your lips
Spendin' time paintin' the walls from the floor to the ceilin'
Lotus flower picked from the Garden of Eden
If I were you, I'd wanna savor it all

Raspberry tangerine, honey (I can taste me on you)
Vanilla bean, so sweet (Mm-mm, mm-mm)
And you can get it in the mornin', yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When you want it, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Raspbеrry tangerine, honey

Usеd to be a butterfly, flyin' in the summertime (Oh)
But now you've made your case, found your home
Fruitful seeds, my, they've grown
Pollinate my love with yours
Fireplace in wintertime
Heat me up, I'll keep you warm
My sugar cane dangerous (Woah)
Nectar on my face again, oh (Woah, woah)
I like it 'cause it's

Raspberry tangerine, honey (I can taste me on you)
Vanilla bean, so sweet (Mm-mm, mm-mm)
And you can get it in the mornin', yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When you want it, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Raspberry tangerine, honey

So don't tell nobody what's done in the garden
The fruits you can harvest, they grow where you water
It's all in the timin' when nobody's watchin', no
I can taste me on you (Mm-mm, mm-mm)
I can taste me on you (Mm-mm, mm-mm)
(Mm-mm, mm-mm)
(Mm-mm)
Everything, everything, everything
Everything (Everything), everything (Everything), everything (Everything)
Everything (Everything), everything (Everything), everything (Everything)

everything

I could blame it on the physical
I could blame it on your lips, your touch, your kiss
You know, real traditional
But your love's too original
You are anything but conventional
Baby, did you know that
From the moment we fell in, I knew we could fall back
Knew I'd always crawl back, ooh

'Cause, baby, it's the everything for me
For me, yeah, for me
Baby, it's the everything for me
For me, yeah, oh, for me
'Cause, baby, it's the everything, no tryin'
You be shinin', my silver linin'
'Cause, baby, it's the everything for me
For me, yeah, oh, for mе

Love the way you teach mе
Love the way you listen
You know all my details
You so damn attentive
You got my attention, babe
Can't forget to mention, babe
I'ma keep you lifted
You so f*ckin' gifted
And how many girls out in the world can say that they had it?
And how many bitches that became your missus can maintain the status?
That was before me, it's childish, you done with your wilin'
Now you can be wild with me, run that mile with me
Catch some flights out with me, oh
I match your energy, match your fly perfectly
Lips lock intensively, want you extensively
I know you was made for me, think you was made with me
Shit feel like destiny

'Cause, baby, it's the everything for me
For me, yeah, oh, for me
This is such a different thing for me
For me, yeah, oh, for me
Baby, it's the everything, no tryin'
You be shinin', my silver linin'
'Cause, baby, it's the everything for me
Oh, for me

Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything, everything

wondering/wandering

Took time just to enjoy it
I was in my own movie
Cinematic, needed scorin'
Major decisions
Divine intervention
Try to release control ('Trol)

I had to learn to trust and fall
Receive it all, surrender
The push and pull to break the wall
Rebuild it all, it found me

Wonderin', wanderin', wonderin'
It left me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin' (Wonderin')
Found me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin'
It left me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin' (Found me)

Trippin', and wanna say
Likе when you think you know it all
Gifted, but not gracious
Prayin' for patiencе

I had to learn to trust and fall
Receive it all, surrender
The push and pull to break the wall
Rebuild it all, it found me

Wonderin', wanderin', wonderin'
It left me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin' (Wonderin')
Found me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin'
It left me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin' (Found me)


Wondering, I surrender
You found me, now I'm livin' free
Wondering, I surrender
(Wonderin', I surrender, I surrender, wonderin')

Wonderin', wanderin', wonderin'
It left me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin' (Wonderin')
Found me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin'
It left me wonderin', wanderin', wonderin' (Found me)

Water
A blue, a blue water
Blue water
There's boats
Blue water
And, and blue water
