THE LAKE (feat. Kosen!)
This was a beat I had been working on for a very long time, always taking the perspective of simplicity being its greatest asset. I only had a drum track and a guitar track for the longest time until I had gotten Kosen! to help me produce the track. He helped me lay down the bass line and then also co-wrote lyrics with me and laid down some verses. The song is about interacting with a woman interest who is promiscuous but still going out and treating her in with the more traditional “boyfriend role” benefits. As the song ends, the romance seems to fall apart and the woman of interest loses interest in the mind of the speaker and the song as well.
“I’m a testosterone filled mess
But still I’m feeling blessed
Got a cold drink
It’s on my chest
She wiped the sunscreen in on my neck
She drive like a car with the gear switch
Sunny today like the beat is
We killing it
We killing it
We killing it
We killing it
Ok ok ok ay
Orae alright ay
Yeah
Uh
Ok
Lately thinking this process is crazy
Sipping ice tea
Ocean breeze
Sun in the sky
Just blazing
Birds can fly
But no lie
This heat got me feeling lazy
Cruisin in a Maybach
With a shawty
Her name is Mercedes
What is you sayin?
I am not playing
Bought to level up
Like super saiyan
Don’t wait to call me girl
Don’t wait till I’m just balling girl
I’m balling and flossin
Got pearly whites
Look at my future
It’s super bright
Don’t trip girl
By the end of the night
Don’t trip girl
Just get the vibes right like
Uh
She knows she’s been my little lady
I’m driving her down to the lake we
Are creeping and acting so shady
But lately she been way too flakey but
I already know
It’s just how it goes
She feelin her life
She feelin her hoes
She got 20 men
On down at her toes
But I ain’t be caring for hoes or red nose
Yeah
For sure
Baby
She knows she’s been my little lady
I’m driving her down to the lake we
Are creeping and acting so shady
But lately she been way too flakey I
I keep on my own
I play on my phone
I make it feel right
Then I make it feel wrong
And I’m just out chilling
And writing this song
I don’t need a girl
To be chilling at home
Yuh
You know that I call her mercedes
Yeah
Uh
Ok
Lately thinking this process is crazy
Sipping ice tea
Ocean breeze
Sun in the sky
Just blazing
Birds can fly
But this heat
No lie got me little lazy
Cruisin in a Maybach
With a shawty
Her name is Mercedes
What is you sayin?
I am not playing
Bought to level up
Like super saiyan
Don’t wait to call me girl
No way
Till you just lost me girl ok
I’m bossin and flossin
Got pearly whites
I look at my future
You know that it’s bright
Don’t trip girl
By the end of the night
Don’t trip girl
Tryna get the vibes right like
Uh”
