Lyrics
Find another songAnd I love being under the influence
Under the influence of you
And your voice sounds like it's an instrument
Everything you say rings true
Playtime's over, playtime's over
And I love being under the influence
But there's better things you'll have me do
Playtime's over, playtime's over
And I love being under the influence
Under the influence of you
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
Y'all listen I'm sticking a tape on
With a flick of the wrist, takin' a piss
I'ma be spreading like napalm
Felt locked up like Akon
Startin' to show off, buzzin' myself
Batman with no cape on
Now I'm plantin' my seed like an acorn
You're gone and I'm trying to stay strong
Brand new face on, throw shapes, wave form
Hold tight, coast line, ghost face, Raekwon
Don't wanna be down like I'm Jay Sean
You're cold and I'm wanting to stay warm
Don't watch that like gay porn
You're gone and I'm trying to stay strong
And I love being under the influence
Under the influence of you
And your voice sounds like it's an instrument
Everything you say rings true
Playtime's over, playtime's over
And I love being under the influence
But there's better things you'll have me do
Playtime's over, playtime's over
And I love being under the influence
Under the influence of you
You're fake and I see through the spray tan
Hustle a beer, pulling a trick
Dark when you're wearing your Ray-Bans
Fake tans, your main man
Remember the first like I'm rainman
Swimming to shore of the mainland
Keep trying to stick to the same plan
This shit is addictive, I'm the victim, you're the victim
Stick clear, take the biscuit, yeah
Ask myself, "Why'd I risk it?" Flushed it out still I missed it
Ain't trying to keep it cryptic, this wasn't scripted
Davina called me up and told me I'm evicted
Don't let playtime ruin our day
Don't let playtime ruin our day
Don't let playtime ruin our day
Don't let playtime have its say
Don't let playtime ruin our day
Don't let playtime ruin our day
And I love being under the influence
Under the influence of you
And your voice sounds like it's an instrument
Everything you say rings true
Playtime's over, playtime's over
And I love being under the influence
But there's better things you'll have me do
