Lyrics for Initiation

Oh yeah Got you drinking out them white cups, sodas All this shit sounds foreign to you, thick smoke, chokin' Baby get familiar with the order Just crack it, then pour it, then sip slow, then tip low My eyes red but my brim low, that XO, she climbing Straight to the top, forgettin' why she there in the first place No more crying, heart rate slow, put that rum down you don't wanna die tonight I promise, when you're finished we'll head to where I'm living The party won't finish, it's a fucking celebration, oh yeah For my niggas out tonight Ah, and they high off Shakespeare lines There's enough to pass around, you don't gotta wait in line And the clocks don't work, you don't gotta check the time And the blinds don't work, you don't gotta check the sky We be going all night, 'til light I got a test for you You say you want my heart Well, baby you can have it all There's just something that I need from you Is to meet my boys You've been going hard, baby Now you rolling with some big boys, baby Got a lot you wanna show off, baby Close that door before you take your fucking clothes off, baby Don't mind All my writings on the wall I thought I passed my peak, and I'm experiencing fall And all I wanna do is leave 'cause I've been zoning for a week And I ain't left this little room, trying to concentrate to breathe 'Cause this piff so potent, killing serotonin In that two floor loft in the middle we be choking On that all black voodoo, heavy gum chewin' Go on if you testing, baby if you dancin' Grab a cup of that XO, baby I been leanin' Back from the come down, girl I been fiendin' For another round, don't you blame it on me When you're grinding up them teeth And it's fucking hard to sleep I got a test for you You said you want my heart Well baby you can have it all There's just something I need from you is to meet my boys I got a lot of boys And we can make you right And if you get too high Baby come over here and ride it out, ride it out Work that back till I tire out Roll that weed, bring that fire out Taste that lean when you kiss my mouth Bed so wet when I eat you out Girl's friend screaming that I'm creeping out If they're not down, better keep 'em out Ex-man hollering, keep him out Hard to let go, I could teach you how Take a puff of this motherfucking weed for now Take a shot of this cognac, ease you out Just one night, trying to fuckin' leave you out Baby, baby I got a test for you You said you want my heart Well baby you can have it all There's just something that I need from you is to meet my boys I got a lot of boys And we can make you right And if you get too high Baby come over here and ride it out (ooh yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah) Ooh yeah Come over here and ride it out (ooh yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah) Ooh yeah (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO) oh (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO) ooh (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO) ah yeah (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO) X-O (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO) ooh yeah (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO) (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO) (That north north, that up top, that OVO and that XO, that)
