[Rema Snippet]
Is it a crime?
Is it a crime
That I still want you
And I want you to want me too?
Baby (Rema), baby sunmomi
You know say you match my steeze
You know I'm a G
Shawty, I'ma always keep it real
I no dey for too much whining, dey for too much whining
As e dey be (Ooh)
As the shayo dey enter, oya, make we kolobi
Oya, show yourself, do over-sabi
Love is in the air, baby, breathe in
I dey available
Baby, anytime you need me, I dey available
Baby, anytime you need me, I dey available
Baby, anytime you need me, I dey available
Compatible, two of us dey compatible
Girl, I be bad boy, forget say I dey mellow
Ah baby, I dey fold, baby, take it slow
Baby, go down low, nobody gots to know
Oh yeah, I know I play around, but me no fit to let you go
Ooh (Is it a crime?)
Baby, baby sunmomi
You no say you match my steeze
You know I'm a G
Shawty, I'ma always keep it real
I no dey for too much whining, dey for too much whining (That I still want you?)
As e dey be
As the shayo dey enter, oya, make we kolobi
Oya, show yourself, do over-sabi (Yeah)
Love is in the air, baby, breathe in
[J Hus Snippet]
I got ninety-nine reasons why I'd never leave you
Baby, that's treason
Let me keep you warm, outside it's freezin'
Wifey season, it's you I'm squeezin', I slowly ease in
She's a queen, Your Highness, this one's the tightest
She's a queen, Your Highness, this one's the tightest
She's a queen, Your Highness, this one's the tightest
You know you're too leng, you're the brightest, you're the G.O.A.T
Lemme put it inside your throat, you gotta open your mouth the widest
Ain't you so goddamn hot? I gotta rise two lighters
Baby girl, I'm roasting, just like I'm fresh out of Rikers
She like me and I like her, she ride me like a biker
And she defend me, she's a fighter
I'm on a mission every time I pipe her
[...]
Ooh (Is it a crime?)
Baby, baby sunmomi
You know say you match my steeze
You know I'm a G
Shawty, I'ma always keep it real
I no dey for too much whining, dey for too much whining (That I still want you?)
As e dey be
As the shayo dey enter, oya, make we kolobi
Oya, show yourself, do over-sabi
Love is in the air, baby, breathe in
