Don´t lose your shit, i´m just honest

we´ll crash the car in the parking lot

Been down this road way too often

And i´m scared we´ll take it too far

 

When we’re

Pedal to the metal in the car with the windows down

rollin in a compact, trippin’ no cap

gotta stop ‘fore I hear that (*CRASH*)

 

Won´t you vibe with me ( vibe with me)

Cause we got nowhere else to be

Just don´t lie to me ( don´t lie to me)

Red lights ain’t holding us back

Picking up speed, we’re going

 

too faaaaaaast

And I would rather be cruising

Seatbelt´s on

We’re going too fast

I would rather be cruising

 

If not to last then why bother

I feel my best when we’re side by side

I need a friend in a lover

I don´t wanna leave either one behind

 

When we’re pedal to the metal

in the car with the windows down

Let´s ride

Rollin in a compact, trippin’ no cap

gotta stop ‘fore I hear that (*CRASH*)

 

Wont u vibe with me 

Cause we got nowhere else to be

Just don´t lie to me 

Red lights ain’t holding us back

Picking up speed, we’re going

 

too faaaaaaast

and I´d rather be cruising

seatbelt´s on

we’re going too fast

and I´d rather be cruising
