[Sample (Melody): Bobby Caldwell - “What You Won’t Do for Love” (3:20)]
[Intro: Ebony]
I know you wonder where he’s been
But he’s in here now, let the game begin
[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Interlude 2): Ebony]
I came back to let you know
That he’s L-Swift, baby, and he got that flow
In my world, it’s only you
‘Cause without you, L, don’t know what I’d do
[Interlude 1 (Overlapped with Hook 1): L-Swift]
What, what? Yeah, yeah. What, what? Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1: L-Swift]
This type
Of vibe you might kick back to, relax, you and your homies puff
A twenty-sack to, brothers could blast through an Ac’ (True)
The streets to wherever you chill at, relax your mind at
Spend all your time at, recline at. I design raps carefully
For your listening pleasure. Whatever’s clever better just so
You could vibe with, get live with. I lived through life, hoping
I could survive it, so I rock until the break of dawn. It’s like
“Bonita Applebum”—”baby, you gotta put me on” because
I see what you see, but you will never see what I see ‘cause
What I see is too complex for you to find, so you could get
With that or you could get with this, but I recommend you get
With this ‘cause this is where it is, so everybody just
[Hook 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): L-Swift]
Clap your hands to the funky sound ‘cause it’s
The L, baby, and this is how it’s going down for
Women in the front and the fellas in the back
Ladies, get with this, and, homeboys, get with that
Kick it, baby
[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Hook 2 and Interlude 2): Ebony]
I came back to let you know
That he’s L-Swift, baby, and he got that flow
In my world, it’s only you
‘Cause without you, L, don’t know what I’d do
[Interlude 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): L-Swift]
What, what? Yeah, yeah. Word, I like that
[Verse 2: L-Swift]
You feel
The vibe as my words relax your mind. L-Swift controls your every
Body part enough to make a party start in The City
That Never Sleeps as you enjoy the night scene with a lady
Liquor and Alizé in ice, fiend. My vision
For dollars could take over my soul and mind ‘cause I came back
To let you know I clutch your mind and never let you go ‘cause, with clippers
You couldn’t fade me (Crazy), so just relax with a Moët
And kick it with your lady as you stay free as a bird
In the sky. You ask me why, but, kid, I be struggling
For dollars until I die (Why?), but you could get with that
Or you could get with this, but I recommend you get
With this ‘cause this is where it is, so everybody just
[Hook 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): L-Swift]
Clap your hands to the funky sound ‘cause it’s
The L, baby, and this is how it’s going down for
Women in the front and the fellas in the back
Ladies, get with this, and, homeboys, get with that
Kick it, baby
[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Hook 2 and Interlude 2): Ebony]
I came back to let you know
That he’s L-Swift, baby, and he got that flow
In my world, it’s only you
‘Cause without you, L, don’t know what I’d do
[Interlude 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): L-Swift]
Yeah, yeah. What, what? I like that. Uh huh, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3: L-Swift]
L-S-
-W-I-F-to-the-T, I lay it down and let
The bass kick ‘cause I step in the place with nothing but
Melodic musics for your Benzie or your boombox
Bumping the sounds from the project hallways to the boondocks
In New York is where I rest at (Where I rest at), get blessed at, collect
My thoughts at, lyrically talk at. They call me L, and I’ll be
Doing this as long as money’s green, I’ll be creating ‘cause
It’s all about ladies, liquor, and money-making, and I
Be taking mics ‘cause, yo, there’s no mistaking, right? And if
You’re with it, baby, we could swing this thing from day to night, so get
With that or you could get with this, but I recommend you get
With this ‘cause this is where it is, so everybody just
[Hook 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): L-Swift]
Clap your hands to the funky sound ‘cause it’s
The L, baby, and this is how it’s going down for
Women in the front and the fellas in the back
Ladies, get with this, and, homeboys, get with that, just
Clap your hands to the funky sound ‘cause it’s
The L, baby, and this is how it’s going down for
Women in the front and the fellas in the back
Ladies, get with this, and, homeboys, get with that
Kick it, baby
[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Hook 2 and Outro): Ebony]
I came back to let you know
That he’s L-Swift, baby, and he got that flow
In my world, it’s only you
‘Cause without you, L, don’t know what I’d do
‘Cause without you, L, don’t know what I’d do
I said, “Without you, L, don’t know what I’d do”
It’s all about you
It’s all about you
I said, “It’s all about you”
I said, “It’s all…”
[Outro (Overlapped with Hook 1): L-Swift]
What, what? Haha, I like that, I like that. Yeah, yeah, word? Uh huh. What, what? Hahahahaha, I like that. What? Kick it, baby, kick it. Word, word? Uh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Word, word? Yeah, yeah, hahaha. That’s right, that’s right
