Lyrics

Verse 1

Yeah
Wakin' up on this plane late
headed back to the A to my homeboy place
and this the same state where I got created, then ventilated
Im tryna save face, 'cause I had this loud dream in my aisle seat
scarin' kids, they parents lit
I'm a *black man from them wild streets* (pitch up)
my seat reclinin in coach, been leanin back to my limits, yeah
plane land in bout five minutes, hit turbulence, we glide twisted
know God got me I'm ridin' wit' it, huh
I'm here for a reason
we touch down and I'm standin' up
'bout to grab my shit 'cause I'm leavin'
welcome to Hartsfield
baggage claim, damn madhouse, that's status quo
taxi cost I got cash though,
about a couple hundred I passed go
these streetlights,
illuminatin' we zig zaggin' to the Marriott
red lights on every block
looked over once and this very hot
young lady, on the curb wit' bags and it's rainin'
lookin' exhausted, like Farrah Fawcett on the other side of that baby
I said pull over like hey there, you wanna share the cab
I only got about a block or two
all yours and I'll pay the tab
dependin' on what you got to do
let's grab a drink, catch a movie,
get somethin' to eat, it's on you baby
hopped in and said thanks a lot
I hoped somebody like you would save me
had a long day but this helps...
I was tryin' to shop my pain away
wasn't standin' there for my health
you heard about that train delay?
couldn't get a ride by myself...
y'all pulled up just in time
bags wet, my hair frizzy
newly single, just bear wit' me
You nice...I'm an AKA, you ice
I wanna take you up on this night out
I need happiness in my life
I said alright, just standby

Hook

Standby
hey, standby
baby girl just standby
can't let my upper hand die

just standby
yeah yeah just standby

Hey girl, where you goin? (4x)

Verse 2

So we headed back to my hotel
I think this night might go well
legs under that skirt shinin', that motivation might propel
me to put all my effort into this hail mary like Odell
rain comin' down harder, she get out the cab on my coattails
with a plastic bag on her head to keep that hair straight
hit the lobby for the room cleanin', y'all know they workin' on their pace
makin' conversation, plus I'm dressed well, so that marinate
she thinkin', that she likin' what she seen so far,
in a half hour, we drinkin'
impromptu adventure, downtown
this spot I know up on the intersection
Piedmont and 1-0, know that food selection mad interestin'
talkin' about her backstory, hobbies and where she been
I can tell she likin' my vibe, but will she decide to let me in?
so I got the check, I walked her back to my spot
her eyes tellin' me to make a move
nervous I ain't anticipate it,
moved closer tryna make it smooth
air hot and that tension up,
her lips movin' can't listen 'cause
I'm just picturin' what that mouf do
but sayin' that would get fisticuffs
I know...
(I don’t mean no disrespect baby)
but how do I show
(I been watchin’ you finesse baby)
that I want more
interaction than a goodbye or a call me later
chance meetings been risin' lately,
ain't had one of these since Elevator
went for the kiss all random,
now our lips movin' in tandem
while my hand runs through that long hair
we can take it there if you want it
she froze, said she's comin' wit' me
heart beatin' at 150
then stripped said show me what you'd do with this
if you insist, just stand by
