But this is not to get confused
This one's for you
[Chorus:]
Baby you my everything you all I ever wanted
We can do it real big
Bigger than you ever done it
You be up on everything
Other hoes ain't never on it
I want this forever, I swear I can spend whatever on it
Cause she hold me down everytime I hit her up
When I get right I promise that we gon live it up
She make me beg for it till she give it up
And I say the same thing every single time
I say you the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had
I say you the fucking
[Verse 1:]Know you got a roommate
Call me when it's no one there
Put the key under the mat
And you know I'll be over there
(Yup) I'll be over there
Shawty, I'll be over there
I'll be hitting all the spots that u ain't even know was there
Ha. And you ain't even have to ask twice
You can have my heart or we can share it like the last slice
Always felt like you was so accustomed to the fast life
Have a nigga thinking that he met you in a past life
Sweat pants, hair tied, chilling with no make up on
That's when you're the prettiest
I hope that you don take it wrong
You don't even trip when friends say you ain't bringing Drake along
You know that I'm working I'll be there soon as I make it home
And she a patient in my waiting room
Never pay attention to them rumors and what they assume
And until them girls prove it
I'm the one to never get confused with cause
[Chorus:]Baby you my everything you all I ever wanted
We can do it real big
Bigger than you ever done it
You be up on everything
Other hoes ain't never on it
I want this forever, I swear I can spend whatever on it
Cause she hold me down everytime I hit her up
When I get right I promise that we gon live it up
She make me beg for it till she give it up
And I say the same thing every single time
I say you the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had
I say you the fucking
[Verse 2:]Sex, Love, Pain
Baby I be on that tank shit
Buzz so big I could probably sell a blank disk
When my album drop
Bitches will buy it for the picture
And niggas will buy it too and claim they got it for they sister
Magazine paper girl
But money ain't the issue
They bring dinner to my room and ask me to initial
She call me the referee
'Cause I be so official
My shirt ain't got no stripes but I can make ya pussy whistle
Like the Andy Griffith theme song
And who told you to put them jeans on
Double cup love
You the one I lean on
Feeling for a fix then you should really get ya pheen on
Yeah, just know my condo is the crack spot
Every single show she out there reppin' like a mascot
Get it from the back
And make ya fucking bra strap pop
All up in ya slot until the nigga hit the jackpot, sang…
[Chorus:]Baby you my everything you all I ever wanted
We can do it real big
Bigger than you ever done it
You be up on everything
Other hoes ain't never on it
I want this forever, I swear I can spend whatever on it
Cause she hold me down everytime I hit her up
When I get right I promise that we gon live it up
She make me beg for it till she give it up
And I say the same thing every single time
I say you the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the fucking best
You the best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had [x2] [Outro: Drake]
Uhh, aaw yeaah
See this the type of joint you gotta deadicate to somebody
Just make sure they that special somebody
Young Money
Yeaah… yeaah
You know who you are, I gotcha'
