Kehlani Lyrics

Footsteps lyrics - Kehlani (feat. Musiq Soulchild)

Patience could've done us well

'Cause I could tell that all we lacked was presence

And I would've fell, you could've helped

But here's to being honest

Neither of us knew what we wanted

But all we knew is that we cared

Still all we painted was a moment

And when I walked away

I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me

And when I walked away

I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me

You're so bad at holding water, slips right through your fingers

We'd both end up drowning, it would hit the ground

And then the path would wash away, wash away

Look

And I really wanna work this out 'cause I'm tired of fighting

And I really hope you still want me the way I want you

And it really feels like this shit been on autopilot

And it's habitual to be the bitch I am but not the chick you want

Residual damage left in place of what was beautiful

Excuses only work when what we've done is still excusable

You let the truth unfold

But still, cheers to being honest

Neither of us knew what we wanted

But all we knew is that we cared

Still all we painted was a moment

And when I walked away

I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me

And when I walked away

I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me

You're so bad at holding water, slips right through your fingers

We'd both end up drowning, it would hit the ground

And then the path would wash away, wash away

You are a vision of perfection

In my eyes, I was caught up in a blessing

Didn't realize how it wasn't fair to compare

All the things I know that I've been through

As if you didn't have anything that you went through

I treated you like medicine, but I guess I wasn't listening

And you tried to explain that you had hurt and pain, too

But as long as I felt better, then it was all good

But we wasn't good, so convinced that things were understood

Meanwhile, I had baggage to unpack, and I just had to admit that

Still dealing with the battles, feeling so inadequate

And I know that I shoulda stayed

But at the time, it felt like I had to quit

And I know that you probably thinking

Just I ain't thinking 'bout myself

But you still playing in my head to this day talking 'bout

You could've helped

But still, cheers to being honest

Neither of us knew what we wanted (No)

But all we knew is that we cared (Uh)

Still all we painted was a moment (Ah)

And when I walked away

I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me

And when I walked away

I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me

You're so bad at holding water, slips right through your fingers

We'd both end up drowning, it would hit the ground

And then the path would wash away, wash away (Wash away)

Too Deep lyrics - Kehlani

I argue with my side thing (Yuh)

Way more than my main thing (Yuh)

I thought we were just fucking

I can't fall in love for nothing

I can't lie to you for nothing

I made you who you wasn't

We was candy crushing

But this shit getting too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep for me

Getting too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep for me

This shit too deep

Too aggravated, too complicated

More, more, more, more complicated

Le-le-le-less communication

Less conversation, more confrontation

I'ma catch a case, no exoneration

I'ma go to jail, now I'm contemplating

I don't know what you see in me

I don't ever wanna be with you

I don't know why you pass for it

Wasting energy texting me

Text messages, thread messages

I don't wanna think less of you, no (No)

I just wanna see the best for you, yeah

But this shit getting too deep (Getting too)

Too deep (Deep, yeah)

Too deep for me (Getting too deep)

Getting too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep (Too deep) for me

This shit too deep

Too many steps, too many levels

Too many laps, too many hurdles

You don't wanna get hurt by me

I don't wanna be a crutch for ya

Too insane, too irritated

Too insufficient, too inconsistent

You just wanna talk, I don't wanna listen

Now I wanna talk, you don't wanna listen

I don't ever wanna lose you again

You don't ever wanna see me again

Say that I'm done, leave you alone

Mark you, then call you again (Again, again, again, again)

Again (Again, again)

Not like this usually

But this shit's getting too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep (Yeah yeah)

Too deep for me

Getting too deep (Just a little too)

Too deep (Little too deep)

Too deep for me (Just a little too deep)

This shit too deep

Nunya lyrics - Kehlani (feat. Dom Kennedy)

Hit-Boy

TrapAdix

Why you asking 'bout X, Y, Z?

Why you worried 'bout who was fuckin' me?

Who's to the right in my SUV?

It's none of your, none of your, none of your biz

Calling my girls to check where I been

If you needed to know I'd drop a pin

Keeping to yourself really ain't a sin

But you can't, you can't let me live

You put on a show

'Cause you don't want the world to know

That you lost a girl who got it on her own

It'd be good for you to let it go, let it go, let it go

Ain't nunya business (Nunya)

To know who I'm with

Or none of my shit

Ain't nunya business (Nunya)

To know who I'm with

Or none of my shit (None of my shit)

Don't worry 'bout who it is now

Don't worry 'bout if he got kids now

If he's richer than you, slicker than you

His net worth bigger than you

And his dick ain't thicker than you

It's on me, not you (Not you)

Worry 'bout who you go home to (Home to)

Worry 'bout if she gon' leave you (Leave you)

When she find out all that you do

'Cause you put on a show

'Cause you don't want the world to know

That you lost a girl who got it on her own

It'd be good for you to let it go, let it go, let it go, woah

Ain't nunya business (Nunya)

To know who I'm with

Or none of my shit

Ain't nunya business (Nunya)

To know who I'm with

Or none of my shit (None of my)

Ay, I admit it, I admit

If I saved her phone number then I did it (Hello?)

It's hard when the coupe all black (Yeah)

Just left Melrose got it waxed, done

Now I'm on the other side of the track

If the grass greener lemme know (Lemme know)

These thoughts in my head - gotta let 'em out

I know it's due to the girls I let stick around

My heart on my sleeve, check the tag

It's priceless and that lil' crisis

Put me on a slight binge, had me switching my plans

Can't worry 'bout the past, seen you out here holdin' hands

I shoulda knew that was coming (Why?)

I know a few that did done it (Huh?)

By my lonely when they see me 'round town

I'm all business, no feelings, not now

'Cause you put on a show (Haha)

'Cause you don't want the world to know

That you lost a girl who got it on her own (Wow)

It'd be good for you to let it go, let it go, let it go, woah

Ain't nunya business (Ain't none of your, yeah)

Ain't nunya business (None of your, yeah)

To know who I'm with (To know who I'm with)

Or none of my shit (Oh, none of my shit, yeah)

Ain't nunya business (Ain't none of your)

Ain't nunya business (No it ain't, no, no)

To know who I'm with (To know who I'm with)

Or none of my shit (None of my shit, yeah)

Word?

You got it all figured out, huh?

Do your thang then

You know where to find me

Get what you want

Yeah

Morning Glory lyrics - Kehlani

I wanna take my wig off

I wanna lay it on the nightstand

I wanna take my makeup off

I wanna rip these nails off my hands

And I might look like who did what and why

Up under all of this

But you came to spend the night

So you know that there was way more to me

And if you don't want me at my goodnight

Then you can’t have me at my morning glory

At my morning glory

And if you don't want me at my goodnight

Then it's gon’ be goodbye (Gonna be, gonna be)

Gon' be goodbye

This ain't BK, you can't have it your way

The only thing you decide is your stay

Wit' me or the homies, caked up or lonely

Tonight or the morning, yeah

And I might look like oh me and oh my

Up under all of this

But you came to spend the night

So you know that there was way more to me

And if you don't want me at my goodnight (Yeah)

Then you can't have me at my morning glory (Glory)

At my morning glory

And if you don't want me at my goodnight (No, no, no, no, no)

Then it’s gon’ be goodbye (Goodbye)

Gon' be goodbye (Yeah)

Tell me, why should I be trippin’ on you

While I could be payin' dues?

I'm a fountain of youth, raised on Arie and Badu

I know I'm fine, don’t need a outer confirmation from a man

Who uses 2-in-1 and thinks he's a sensation

Don't need acrylics on the clock to hit the nail on the head

Don't need my inches down my back to throw it back in the bed

So, when you speak on me and say that "She ain't put together"

Don't forget to mention that I got my shit together

If you don't want me at my goodnight (If you don't want me)

Then you can't have me at my morning glory (At my glory)

At my morning glory

And if you don't want me at my goodnight (You don't want me at my goodnight)

Then it's gon' be goodbye (Bye, bye, bye-bye, baby)

Gon' be goodbye

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Feels lyrics - Kehlani

I ask myself, "Is this shit real?"

I contemplate 'bout how I feel

But you make it way too hard to think

That this could be what true love is

I don't want wait another minute for ya

Oh, you got me falling from the ceiling for ya

Knew right from the start there was no limit to ya

And now I'm catching feelings, baby

You give me feels and I

Know that it, know that it, know that it's real

You give me, you give me feels

You give me feels and I

Know that it, know that it, know that it's real

You give me, you give me feels

It took a lot of hard shit just to learn

How not to break down and stop, baby

No matter what I seen in the past

I won't let it impact how we grow now, baby

I can't let it slip away or drift away

Can't go to waste, go to waste, uh

I say it straight, straight to your face

Won't contemplate, yeah, contemplate that, baby

I don't want wait another minute for ya (No no)

Oh, you got me falling from the ceiling for ya (Oh yeah)

Knew right from the start there was no limit for me

And now I'm catching feelings, baby

You give me feels and I (You give)

Know that it, know that it, know that it's real (That it's real)

You give me, you give me feels (Feels)

You give me feels and I

Know that it, know that it, know that it's real

You give me, you give me feels (Oh)

You give me feels (You give me feels)

You give me feels, you give me feels (Feels)

You give me feels (You, you, you, you, you, you, uh)

You give me feels, you give me feels (Feels)

You give me feels and I (Oh)

Know that it, know that it, know that it's real (That it's real)

You give me, you give me feels

You give me feels and I

Know that it, know that it, know that it's real (Know that it's real)

You give me, you give me feels (Oh)

You give me feels

Nights Like This lyrics - Kehlani (feat. Ty Dolla $ign)

[Kehlani:]

You act like you need remindin'

Tryna do it over, bring it back and rewind it

But all that glitters isn't gold, I was blinded

Should have never gave you my heart on consignment

And I can't believe the lies that I went for

Thought you was mine, but you decided to be with him though

You took my feelings and just threw 'em out the window

Feel like it's too hard to fall in love again, no

On some nights like this, shawty, I can't help but think of us

I've been reminiscin', sippin', missin' ya

Can you tell me what's with all this distant love?

If I called, would you pick it up?

On some nights like this, I just wanna text you, but for what?

You gon' say you want me, then go switch it up

Just gon' play with my emotions just because, no (Oh)

All them times I played the fool for you

Thinkin' we could put it back together, thought we had forever

You never see my point of view

Our connection is so severed, you don't show no effort

And I can't believe the lies that I went for

Thought you was mine, but you decided to be with him though

You took my feelings and just threw 'em out the window

Feel like it's too hard to fall in love again, no

On some nights like this, shawty, I can't help but think of us

I've been reminiscin', sippin', missin' ya

Can you tell me what's with all this distant love?

If I called, would you pick it up?

On some nights like this, I just wanna text you, but for what?

You gon' say you want me, then go switch it up

Just gon' play with my emotions just because, no (Oh)

You gon' get my hopes high, girl

Just gon' tell me more lies, girl

Just gon' get my hopes high, girl

[Ty Dolla $ign:]

I've been way too good to you, you take me for granted

You was my day one since back at Big B's house on Adams

First day that we met, I flagged you down, I told you, "Hit my line"

Used to promise me you'd never switch on me like Gemini

You think I'm a fool, ain't nobody stupid

I see all the signs, I see all the clues

Yeah, sometimes I reminisce 'bout that shit when I'm bingin'

Can't believe it's been a whole year, yeah, but...

[Kehlani & Ty Dolla $ign:]

On some nights like this, shawty, I can't help but think of us

I've been reminiscin', sippin', missin' ya (Missin' ya)

Can you tell me what's with all this distant love? (Love)

If I called, would you pick it up?

On some nights like this, I just wanna text you, but for what?

You gon' say you want me, then go switch it up (Switch it up)

Just gon' play with my emotions just because, no (Oh)

[Kehlani:]

You gon' get my hopes high, girl

Just gon' tell me more lies, girl

Just gon' get my hopes high, girl

RPG lyrics - Kehlani (feat. 6LACK)

[Kehlani:]

You told me I'm beautiful

'Cause I told you you don't tell me enough

You're lying next to me

'Cause I told you you don't touch me enough

Now you told me you'd stay with me

'Cause I told you you've been working too much

You told me you care for me

'Cause I told you you don't show me your love

Show me your love, show me your love

Don't you think that we're too old to play your game?

And we ain't go through all of this to stay the same

But you can pick a player just so I can get my way (Way, way)

And I think you do this 'cause you realise I won't wait (Wait, wait)

I see right through every look in your eyes

I hear right through every fairytale lie

Won't say a word, but the stories you write

They tell me enough

And you told me I'm beautiful

'Cause I told you you don't tell me enough

You're lying next to me

'Cause I told you you don't touch me enough

Now you told me you stay with me

'Cause I told you you've been working too much

You told me you care for me

'Cause I told you you don't show me your love

Show me your love, show me your love

Show me your love (Show you love), show me your love

Show me your love, show me your love (Show you love)

Show me your love (Show, show)

[6LACK:]

I don't wanna make you think

That I'm sayin' things 'cause you prompted me

Been working with a lag, a fucked up past

I want you to be proud of me

It seems like day one, you was fond of me

Same shit I felt for you

Then I fell for you, fell in love

It's embarrassing to tell the truth

But now it's to the point where my love is up for debating

Maybe it's too late to say

I think love is on you, think love is spoken

And we both comin' from the same place

For every song that I write is a note to self

Note to God, note to you

Don't count me out

Besides this and my daughter, I only got love for you

I've been suppressed, I ain't the best

Roll up the problems, smoke all the stress

We got wait too much shit on the line

But you can't see 'em, posers got you blind

Past life regression, lifetime lessons, carryin' a message

Real life angels, battlin' depression

[Kehlani & 6LACK:]

Show me your love, show me your love (Show you love)

Show me your love, show me your love

Show me your love, show me your love (Show you love)

Show me your love, show me your love

Show me your love (Show you love)

Show me your love (Show, show)

Show me your love, show me your love (Show you love)

Show me your love, show me your love

Show me your love, show me your love (Show you love)

Show me your love, show me your love

Show me your love (Show you love)

Show me your love (Show, show)

Butterfly lyrics - Kehlani

Know we're scared of us, what this might become

Ain't no goin' back no more, no more

We're in the same bed, cannot lay awake

Let's fill up this space with us

Butterfly, yeah, yeah

You make me feel brand new

Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin'

No, don't go lookin' for somethin'

Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin'

No, don't go lookin' for somethin'

Oh, oh, oh...

So you seem to think you're invisible

You're so far from silhouette

You tell on yourself between every word

And leave all this room for me

Butterfly, yeah

I miss feelin' for you

Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin'

No, don't go lookin' for somethin'

Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin'

No, don't go lookin' for somethin'

You speak in dictionaries while fearing less than over understand

Virgo moon, I'm so used to your dance

Tongue too swole to comprehend

I see you duck and dodge at every bend

Afraid to play your card, be forced to show your hand

I hope you take from this that it'll make you no less of a man

To break your walls and simply grab my hand

Love shouldn't be contraband

It shouldn't treble on your confidence

Shouldn't be seen as less than compliments

Love Language lyrics - Kehlani

A lot of ways to love you

Teach me through your eyes

What is needed for you

Needed in your life

Don't wanna go shopping

You want picnics in the park

Do you like mornings

Should we do it in the dark

It's all foreign to me, I don't speak what you speak

I'll commit to learning if you, if you

You're a sweet fantasy, singing your ABC's

Please be patient with me, will you

Said I wanna be fluent in your love language

Learning your love language

I know I don't speak your language

But I wanna know more, baby

Fluent in your love language

Learning your love language

I know I don't speak your language

But I wanna know more, baby

Never wanna get lost in translation

Never wanna be on two separate pages

Swear to me that you'll state facts

If you can take back, know I can take that

I been working at it, hoping that you'd notice

I been waiting, I just needed you to focus

Swear to me that you'll show me

Need you to coach me, then we can proceed

And still

It's all foreign to me, I don't speak what you speak

I'll commit to learning if you, if you

You're a sweet fantasy, singing your ABC's

Please be patient with me, will you

Said I wanna be fluent in your love language

Learning your love language

I know I don't speak your language

But I wanna know more, baby

Fluent in your love language

Learning your love language

I know I don't speak your language

But I wanna know more, baby

Said I wanna be fluent in your love language

Learning your love language

I know I don't speak your language

But I wanna know more, baby

Fluent in your love language

Learning your love language

I know I don't speak your language

But I wanna know more, baby

My condolences to anyone who has ever lost me, and to anyone who got lost in me or to anyone who ever felt they took a loss with me, my apologies for the misunderstanding or the lack thereof. I'm sorry you missed the God in me and I'm sorry you missed the light, I'm sorry you forgot the way I arose like the moon night after night with the burden to forgive, eager to feed you everything.

See, I'm a holy woman. I know what it's like to give life to a being without ever needing to press skin against one another. I've practiced how to hold my tongue long enough, I'm afraid I forgot to say goodbye. I'm afraid you're under the impression that I was made to please you. I was under the impression you understood me better.

The truth is, I'm a superwoman, and some days I'm an angry woman, and some days I'm a crazy woman for still waiting, for still loving harder even if I'm aching, for still trusting that I'm still worth the most, for still searching, for someone to understand me better (understand me better).

Keep On lyrics - Kehlani

Sometimes I just be doing shit that don't make any fucking sense

Like I just be doing shit knowing that it's no good for me

All the time

Anything you're saying to me right now

Probably have the right to say

Any crazy things you're feeling for me tonight

You can get it on out the way

'Cause I ain't been the best that I coulda been

I ain't do the shit that I shoulda did

But every time I come crawling on my knees

You're there

And you just keep on taking me back

And I don't know why you do

'Cause I'm no good to you

And you just keep on taking me back

In your open arms, maybe I belong

And you just keep on taking

You can yell and you can curse and call me a bitch

Probably have the right to do

You can tell the world that I'm a narcissist

I would think they'd listen to you

'Cause I ain't been the best that I coulda been

I ain't do the shit that I shoulda did

But every time I come crawling on my knees

You're there

And you just keep on taking me back

And I don't know why you do

'Cause I'm no good to you

And you just keep on taking me back

In your open arms, maybe I belong

And you just keep on taking

Me back, and I don't know why you do

'Cause I'm no good to you

And you just keep on taking me back

In your open arms, baby I belong

And you just keep on taking

I'm not taking you back

Oh, no, I'm not

No, I'm

Taking me, you're taking me really back

No, I'm, no, I'm, no, I'm, no, I'm not

Distraction lyrics - Kehlani

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be...

Do me a favor, pick me up, take me out later

Don't worry about no paper

'Cause I got much stacked up for nights like this

My life can get crazy, I deal with shit on the daily

But baby, I'm thinking maybe

We could agree to work it out like this

I need you (you, oh) to give me your time (give me your time)

I need you (you, oh) to not wanna be mine

Are you down to be a distraction, baby?

But don't distract me, let me ask you, baby

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

A distraction, baby?

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

Yeah, yeah

Are you down to be a distraction, baby?

But don't distract me, let me ask you, baby

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

A distraction, baby?

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

I need you to respect it, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Sometimes this shit get me stressing, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So I need you with me to keep me right and keep me up all night

We can get faded

This life can make you so jaded

So we can stay shaded just to us and try to get it right, oh

I need you (you, oh) to give me your time (give me your time)

I need you (you, oh) to not wanna be mine

Are you down to be a distraction, baby?

But don't distract me, let me ask you, baby

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

A distraction, baby?

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

Yeah, yeah

Are you down to be a distraction, baby?

But don't distract me, let me ask you, baby

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

A distraction, baby?

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

I can't say I give my all

But tonight, I'd risk it all

Woah, woah, woah

Are you down to be...

Are you down to be a distraction, baby?

But don't distract me, let me ask you, baby

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

A distraction, baby?

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

Yeah, yeah

Are you down to be a distraction, baby?

But don't distract me, let me ask you, baby

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

A distraction, baby?

Do you, do you, do you, do you wanna be

Piece Of Mind lyrics - Kehlani

To be honest, I think we spend so much time trying to find answers for things

And maybe it's just not meant to be answered

I think sometimes the best things are in the unplanned and the unknown

And sometimes when we balance back and we do it, we don't know how we did it, we just do it

It's something in us, whether that's our intuition

Whether that's the way we been raised

Whether that's down to even what we put in our bodies

Do you get?

So I think, I think that can remain a mystery

And I think that's okay for it to remain a mystery

Does that make sense?

Tryna forget all of the messages

Tryna forget all of the stressin'

'Cause damn it was (such a pain)

Tryna forget all of the secondary

Feelings I had, man, it was fuckin' scary

Tryna get back to all my old ways

Tryna get back to all the hobbies from my old days

(Gettin' back)

Tryna forget all the unnecessary

Thoughts from my head, man, it was pretty scary

At least I learned a thing or two (yeah)

About me and you (yeah)

What we went through (yeah)

It made me who I am, I am, I am

I can feel again

Won't be numb again (numb)

At least I didn't mess it up (yeah)

That was all your touch (yeah)

I don't miss it much (yeah)

But it made me who I am, I am, I am

I can feel again

Won't be dumb again (dumb)

Said I'm tryna break off a piece of mind

A piece of mind that I can't get right

(I can't get right)

Said I'm tryna break off a piece of mind

A piece of mind, my heart's on my side

(My heart is on my side)

You said yourself you made me who I am

You told me that after you I would never love again (Didn't I?)

Oh you made sure that I would lose myself

So I wanna see I need no one else

Just tell me that I was worth a million smiles, and...

Tell me that I was worth a million miles, and...

Tryna make sure that I forget the times that

You made me think that I just couldn't shine, yeah

At least I learned a thing or two (yeah)

About me and you (yeah)

What we went through (yeah)

It made me who I am, I am, I am

I can feel again

Won't be numb again (numb)

At least I didn't mess it up (yeah)

That was all your touch (yeah)

I don't miss it much (yeah)

But it made me who I am, I am, I am

I can feel again

Won't be dumb again (dumb)

Said I'm tryna break off a piece of mind

A piece of mind that I can't get right

(I can't get right)

Said I'm tryna break off a piece of mind

A piece of mind, my heart's on my side

(My heart is on my side)

On my side, yeah

Gotta get a little piece of mind

Gotta make sure that it feels just right

Gotta make sure that I make it last this time

Said I'm tryna break off a piece of mind

(I'm tryna break off)

A piece of mind that I can't get right

(Boy that I can't get right)

Said I'm tryna break off a piece of mind

(A piece of mind)

A piece of mind, my heart's on my side

(My heart is on my side

My heart's on my side, yeah, yeah)

Da, da, da, da

(Da)

Da, da, da, da

Yeah

Da, da, da, da

Undercover lyrics - Kehlani

You know they don't wanna see us together

But it don't matter, no, 'cause I got you

Anytime you're under the weather

Babe we can always go

If I gotta pull up on you, on the east side

In the late night, in a disguise

You know I could pull up on you, keep you all night

We could stay right, on the safe side

One way or another

I'mma love you

Slidin' under covers, undercover

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

One way or another

I'mma love you

Slidin' under covers, undercover

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it." (Fuck 'em)

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

Baby they don't wanna see me be happy

'Cause they ain't happy, no

They don't got you

Somethin' 'bout the way we be acting

Babe we are magical

Might just have to hit me up, on the late night

When it's game time, I don't play nice

I need you to hit me up, on my fake line

Hit that 6-9, yeah, that FaceTime

One way or another

I'mma love you

Slidin' under covers, undercover

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

One way or another

I'mma love you

Slidin' under covers, undercover

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

I'm a save your name under somethin' else

I'm a keep your things deep in myself

I'm a tweet our inside jokes to the outside world

To get you going

I'm a pick you up from the back entrance

Kept you in the world when it's all pretend

You're just you, I'm just me

There's no us, it's nothin'

One way or another

I'mma love you

Slidin' under covers, undercover

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

One way or another

I'mma love you

Slidin' under covers, undercover

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

They don't wanna see it happen

But we say, "Fuck it."

CRZY lyrics - Kehlani

Crazy

I go, I go, I go, I go

Everything I do, I do it with a passion

If I gotta be a bitch, I'mma be a bad one

I'm AI with the designs du-ragging

Bounce back game good, why we talkin' practice?

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Pull up score when I want to

Best thing, next to Heaven

They be tryna count me out though

I'm just countin', countin' blessings

A real woman bout her paper

Niggas don't know where I came from

Boy I really really came up

You never could say I'm lacking

All the shit that I've been through only made me more of an assassin

I kill 'em, I kill 'em, I kill 'em with compassion

And baby if they askin'

Tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em

I go, I go, I go, I go crazy, crazy

Live for the challenge, only makes me stronger

One more reason to turn up on 'em

I go, I go, I go, I go crazy, crazy

Lit, lit, lit, lit

Only L I take is to the face

You showed up to see me lose

But I overcome so you overcame

Basic, basic

Ain't nothin' bout me basic

Crazy, I'm crazy

Better watch what you say to me 'cause

Young Sway got the answers

Give 'em hell, give 'em pressure (aye)

VIP couch, no manners

Dirty dirty dirty dancin'

Take a look at what I did

Go full circle with the wrist

Whippin' whippin' up the grit

Get a handful of this nasty

I got it, I got it, I got it

And you gon' respect it

Ain't nothin', ain't nothin' gon' stop me from makin' it happen

So baby if they askin'

Tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em, tell 'em

I go, I go, I go, I go crazy, crazy

Live for the challenge, only makes me stronger

One more reason to turn up on 'em

I go, I go, I go, I go crazy, crazy

I go, I go, I go, I go crazy

I go, I go, I go, I go crazy, crazy, crazy

Personal lyrics - Kehlani

They sleeping, they sleeping, they sleeping, they sleeping on me

But I don't waste my time tryna prove that I'm something to see, oh I

The real ones they know and the ones that do not I don't need

'Cause most see the vision and I give reasons to believe

That I'm honest, I'm honest, I'm telling no lies

When I say I'm up next I'm not just for the ride

Never a point when I questioned my mind

Know what I’m doing, I planned for this time

Come up regardless, I'm comin' regardless

I'm hungry, I'm starving, remaining a topic

Never an option, got your undivided whenever I'm plotting

Don't take it personal, personal, personal

I know it hurts to know, hurts to know, hurts to know

I don't want it (na, na, na), don't need it (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Don't take it personal, personal, personal

I know it hurts to know, hurts to know, hurts to know

I don't want it (na, na, na), don't need it (yeah, yeah, yeah)

I know that you hear this and you gon' just know that I'm speaking to you

Shouldn't have got so ahead of yourself now you're losing your cool

I know that you know that I'm right, you admitted that I am the truth

But look you at you now, look at your face, looking sad in the booth

Signed off a tape, toured off a tape, did it alone, and I ain't touched your plate

You was my nigga, we could have been great

You so far gone, got you thinking you're safe

All said and done, you lost my respect

All said and done, you're the one I regret

Now you gon' watch from the crowd

Lookin' up like the rest

Don't take it personal, personal, personal (Look)

Don't take it personal, personal, personal (I need you to promise me one thing)

I know it hurts to know, hurts to know, hurts to know (That you not gon' take it like that)

I don't want it, don't need it

Don't take it personal, personal, personal (Promise me that you won't take it)

Don't take it personal, personal, personal (Swear to me that you won't take it)

I know it hurts to know, hurts to know, hurts to know

I don't want it, don't need it

No I could never judge anyone I loved

Even if you lose sight of all the things I've done

I'm not who I once was

These days I'm all grown up

I fuck with me heavy

I'm all chose up

And I only did right by you

When you fucked her I stood right by you

Prayin' for the girls that believe your news

Prayin' for myself 'cause I be all truth

I got good heart, good soul, good sex, no stress

What's next for me is best

Don't you run your mouth

'Cause in this song I say it best

Don't take it personal, personal, personal

I know it hurts to know, hurts to know, hurts to know

I don't want it, don't need it

Don't take it personal, personal, personal

I know it hurts to know, hurts to know, hurts to know

I don't want it, don't need it

Not Used To It lyrics - Kehlani

Typical story of an Oakland girl

Typical story heard around the world

Mama on her way, daddy up above

Out of 14, I guess it made me tough

Used to roll up on a block on the east side

I crack enough 40's by the sea side

Lose a nigga every week to a drive by

Whole bookshelf of stories behind these eyes I

I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common

I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound like I'm jawsin'

But when I say it's hard to open up to you

It's hard to get close to you

I want it with everything in me to one day just say I'm in love with you

But I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, hey

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it

(I'm not used to it)

One day, one day, one day

All single mothers in my family

Don't know if you're really understanding me

Never seen a nigga be a real man

I never seen a nigga with a real plan

And I still never been to a wedding

And I just see my family stressing

Over sons who grew up with no daddies and every generation

Was all just raised by my granny

But nah

I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common

I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound like I'm jawsin'

But when I say it's hard to just side with you

It's hard to confide in you

I want it with everything in me to one day just say that I ride with you

But I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, hey

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it

(I'm not used to it)

One day, one day, one day

Sometimes I pop off 'cause it's all that I'm used to

Sometimes I pop one 'cause I have to

Sometimes I run from all my problems

Sometimes I make sure that I solve em

I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common

I don't mean, I don't mean for it to sound so damn common, but I'm not used to it

But I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (baby, yeah)

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, hey (I'm not used to it)

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it, I am not (baby I'm sorry)

I'm not used to it, I'm not used to it (I'm not, I'm not)

Yeah, yeah

One day, one day, one day, one day

Yeah, yeah, hey yeah

'Cause I'm not used to it

Everything Is Yours lyrics - Kehlani

Up at a time when I shouldn't be

Thinking 'bout things that I shouldn't be

Sad about shit I'm sad about for the past year

I've been low, I've been down and out it

And it cost a few when you in love if there's any doubts

I've been here and you know the times that I'm talking bout

(Oh, oh)

I would give it all to make it all work

(Oh, oh)

I wish I could say that you knew my worth

(Oh, oh)

End of the day, you was my first

At the end of the day, you'll know you're worse

I love you shawty, shawty

You know you my shawty, shawty

I need you to make me happy

There will never be nobody

My ring is yours (save it, for me)

Everything is yours (save it all for me)

My ring is yours (save it, for me)

Everything is yours

Thinkin' bout your bed when I shouldn't be

Missing all that when I shouldn't be

You was on the road, I was on the road

We'd be back to back, back and forth

They know how it goes, know you got your pride

Just admit you hate being alone

Know you'd like to know

I'm sitting right beside your throne

(Oh, oh)

I'd ignore my friends and go make it all work

(Oh, oh)

But I just can't say that you know my worth

(Oh, oh)

End of the day, you're still my first

At the end of the day, I know you're worse

I love you shawty, shawty (you know it)

You know you my shawty, shawty

(You know you my shawty)

I need you to make me happy

There will never be nobody

My ring is yours (save it, for me)

Everything is yours (save it all for me)

My ring is yours (save it, for me)

Everything is yours (yours)

My ring is yours (save it, for me)

Everything is yours (save it all for me)

My ring is yours (save it, for me)

Everything is yours

Advice lyrics - Kehlani

You have a way with words

Your silence is a curse

You always seem to break me down, down, down

My swollen heart you curve

Your comfort makes it worse

I don't want you around, 'round, 'round, 'round

Cause how is the man of my dreams not a man of his words?

And how is the man for me just a man that makes me hurt?

It's time to take my own

Take my own advice, take my own advice

Need me to take my own

Take my own advice, take my own advice

I almost lost my mind

I left myself behind

I almost crashed and fell right from the sky

I took a chance on this

I took too big a risk

And now I'm left with pain to get me high

Cause how is the man of my dreams not a man of his words?

And how is the man for me just a man that makes me hurt?

It's time to take my own

Take my own advice, take my own advice

Need me to take my own

Take my own advice, take my own advice

You had to break me, take me

To make me better

But I had to save me, baby

Now or never

Cause how is the man of my dreams not a man of his words?

And how is the man for me just a man that makes me hurt?

It's time to take my own

Take my own advice, take my own advice

Need me to take my own

Take my own advice, take my own advice

Take, own, ooh, ooh

Do U Dirty lyrics - Kehlani

Next nigga to fuck with me gon' be stuck with me with his stuck ass. Bitch. What, look. Hold up, l-l-look, no time. Okay?

I, I, I, I

Up for hours drinking

Posted up, just reflecting on it

And I know you won't believe me

But babe, I'm cold and yeah, this life is cold

I say swear you won't come near me

Keep your heart 'cause I could fuck you up

Or have you never thinking clearly

Never thinking clearly

Have you all up in your feelings

Experienced, I did it times before

And I can see you from a distance

I could fuck you now and years later on

You gon' be stuck, just reminiscing

It's the way I ride you, let you stay inside

Yeah, I'mma fuck you like a vixen

There's something 'bout me

Swear you see the good in me

But that don't beat the hood in me

And I got my intentions and yours,

Yours are make believe

'Cause baby, I know, baby, I know

I, I'mma do you dirty

Say you love me now,

But, baby, it's too early

I, I'mma do you dirty

You think you love me now, I think you should be worried

Up for days, been rolling

Sweating bullets, don't regret the choices

That I made 'cause I'm still growing

Sign the deal and then they cut the check

And ever since, my color's showing

Change the scene, the things are better now

You know the wave is never slowing

The wave is never slowing

I know that you will miss me

You liked it when I used to leave a wound

And promise I would come and kiss it

I fed you lies and you just ate 'em up

And I don't care to do the dishes

I ain't no wifey, ain't gon' hold you down

It's way more fun to be the mistress

I know I'm not like other bitches

Swear you see the good in me

But that don't beat the hood in me

And I got my intentions and yours,

Yours are make believe

'Cause baby, I know, baby, I know

I, I'mma do you dirty

Say you love me now,

But, baby, it's too early

I, I'mma do you dirty

You think you love me now, I think you should be worried

You want all my time but I don't got enough

Baby, I can put it down but I can't put it up

I got too much life to live, well I'm still way too young

I'm still way too young, yeah

I'mma do you dirty, I, I'mma do you dirty

Say you love me now,

But, baby, it's too early

I, I'mma do you dirty

You think you love me now, I think you should be worried

Escape lyrics - Kehlani

Never did I think I'd want you

Always seen you 'round my way

Never had the strength to tell you

I kinda, sorta think you're great

Strange for me to wanna love someone who's better by themselves

Hate to know I made you crazy for myself

'Cause I don't want you thinking that my love's in vain

'Cause, baby, I've been falling for you but falling back up out your way

'Cause I can't let you lose yourself looking for me

And I can't let you make me your, your everything

I just wanna be an escape

Baby, can we escape, escape, escape?

Admiring you from a distance

Scared to go and make a move

Didn't wanna be distracting

You be all up in your groove

It's strange for me to wanna love someone who's raw all by themselves

I'd hate for you to search for someone else

'Cause I don't want you thinking that my love's in vain

Baby, I've been falling for you but falling up on out your way

'Cause I can't let you lose yourself looking for me

And I can't let you make me your, your everything

I just wanna be an escape

Baby, can we escape, escape, escape?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, aye, aye

'Cause I've been staying low, holding back

Fighting the feelings that you've been giving

And I've been trying to put it all into words

But I can't so I'm singing

I don't want you thinking that my love's in vain

Baby, I've been falling for you but falling back up out your way

'Cause I can't let you lose yourself looking for me

And I can't let you make me your, your everything

I just wanna be an escape

Baby, can we escape, escape, escape?

Too Much lyrics - Kehlani

I know I'm not what you need

Baby, why you trying? Come over and comfort me

Ain't no sense in lying, do you deserve it honestly?

We could just part ways, find out our own destiny

Baby, baby, baby

You know I'm more than just a girl

That you can meet walking down the street

I think you know that I'm the one

That you want in your company

I'm too much of a woman

Too much of a woman

Too much of a bad ass bitch

Too much of a boss, baby, it's your loss

Now you gotta live with it

Too much, three much

Four much, five much, too much for you

Too much, three much

Four much, five much, too much for you

(Too much, too much, too much for you, yeah)

There ain't really nothing left

Baby, that's a promise, you were fucking with the best

Something I will say, that I might just miss your sex

That don't mean I want you, you can go and stay my ex

Baby, baby, baby

You know I'm more than just a girl

That you can meet walking down the street

I think you know that I'm the one

That you want in your company

I'm too much of a woman

Too much of a woman

Too much of a bad ass bitch

Too much of a boss, baby, it's your loss

Now you gotta live with it

Too much, three much

Four much, five much, too much for you

Too much, three much

Four much, five much, too much for you

You told me you love me, I told you I wanna see it

You told me it's mine and I could have it when I pleases

Every night we sexing, you wearing your Jesus pieces

Like Jesus Christ himself gon' save a nigga from misleading

I want you to know that I meant that, gotta know that I sent that

Text in the middle of the night

To tell your ass how to fuck that flight

'Cause I can't sit at home on your couch

Listening to word of mouth 'bout how you been out

And about fucking hoes, playing out

('Cause) I'm too much of a woman

Too much of a woman (too much)

Too much of a bad ass bitch

Too much of a boss, baby, it's your loss

Now you gotta live with it

Too much, three much

Four much, five much, too much for you

Too much, three much

Four much, five much, too much for you

Too much, too much for you, baby, yeah

Too much, too much, no

Too much, too much for you

Get Like lyrics - Kehlani

The only person in the whole world

Ever?

Ever

I don't like when I catch them out the corner of their, of their eyes

Look all hypnotized

I don't mind when I catch you stare me all the way down in my thighs

Makes me realize

That I'm shy and just a little awkward

But you bring it out of me, out of me

'Cause...

You're the only one that I get like

Get like this for

You're the only one that I get like

Get like this for

Ain't nobody else make me feel like

You're the only one that I feel like

Feel like this for

You're the only one that I get like

Get like this for

I confess, after we get down we always leave a mess

Don't wanna get dressed

We get loud, don't think anyone can make me make a sound

Know that make you proud

'Cause I'm shy and just a little awkward

But you bring it out of me, out of me

'Cause...

You're the only one that I get like

Get like this for

You're the only one that I get like

Get like this for

Ain't nobody else make me feel like

All you, all yours, I'm sure, it's yours (It's yours)

All you, all yours, it's yours, it's yours (It's yours)

All you, all yours, I'm sure, it's yours (It's yours)

Get like this for

Ain't nobody else make me feel like

You're the only one that I feel like

Feel like this for

You're the only one that I get like

Get like this for

In My Feelings lyrics - Kehlani

Are you putting her on your thing?

Oh my God, I'm gonna, it's gonna be like TMZ Kehlani TMZ [*laughs*]

And then he's gonna be suing me for slander [*laughs*]

If it isn't love

Why do I feel this way?

Why you got me so obsessed with you?

Why you got me wasting time laying next to you?

Why do you tell me "Come over" to watch you just stare at your phone?

Don't know why I expected you to give me attention, affection and love.

You're like a drug, never enough

Can't take you high, need a new plug

You got me bent, got me way too messed up

And I don't know why I'm even still here

Can't shake it off, I've been here for years on top of years

And I, I'm ready to, I'm ready to be off of you

'Cause I admit that baby I, I just may be stuck on you

If it isn't love

Why do I pick up my phone every time that you call?

Why do I feel this way?

Why do I feel this, feel this way?

I'm in my feelings

If it isn't love

Why do I let you give me half then give you my all?

Why do I feel this way?

Why do I do this? Feel this way?

I'm in my feelings

No! Uh-uh, whoa. Uh-uh, yeah. Uh-uh, whoa.

In my feelings

No! Uh-uh, whoa. Uh-uh, yeah. Uh-uh, whoa.

In my feelings

Why you be doing me scandalous?

You just assume that I'm strong and can handle it

Why do you make me feel like I'm less than my worth

And it won't be for long, I ain't having it

You don't do the shit that you said would be done

You find it fun to feel shit and run

Love like a gun, it leaves me stunned

Out on the floor and I just can't get up

And I don't know why I'm even still here

Can't shake it off, I've been here for years on top of years

And I, I'm ready to, I'm ready to be off of you

'Cause I admit that baby I, I just may be stuck on you

If it isn't love

Why do I pick up my phone every time that you call?

Why do I feel this way?

Why do I feel this? Feel this way?

I'm in my feelings

If it isn't love

Why do I let you give me half then give you my all?

Why do I feel this way?

Why do I do this? Feel this way?

I'm in my feelings

No! Uh-uh, whoa. Uh-uh, yeah. Uh-uh, whoa.

In my feelings

No! Uh-uh, whoa. Uh-uh, yeah. Uh-uh, whoa.

In my feelings

Oh, why, why do I, why do I feel this way?

Why am I still this way?

Why after all these times you still play all these games?

Why after all these nights I still give you all my days?

And I don't know why I'm even still here

Can't shake it off, I've been here for years on top of years

And I, I'm ready to, I'm ready to be off of you

'Cause I admit that baby I, I just may be stuck on you

I just may be stuck on you

If it isn't love

Why do I pick up my phone every time that you call?

Every time that you call, whoa.

Why do I feel this, feel this?

I'm in my feelings. Feel this

Why do I let you give me half then give you my all?

Give you my all, oh-oh

Why do I do this? Feel this way?

I'm in my feelings

No! Uh-uh, whoa. Uh-uh, yeah. Uh-uh, whoa.

In my feelings

No! Uh-uh, whoa. Uh-uh, yeah. Uh-uh, whoa.

In my feelings

Hold Me By The Heart lyrics - Kehlani

Wasn't sure I'd be alright

Wasn't sure I'd be okay again

Didn't know how to take flight

Wings broken couldn't seem to bend

Somehow you came and like the wind, you picked me up for good

And now I know what I have missed, I've been thinking that you should

Pick up the pieces

Help me learn to stand

Lift me from the ground and use your hands

To hold me by the heart

Tell me I'll be whole again

Hold me by the heart

Tell me it will never end

'Cause I've begun to think that

I was nothing short of broken

So baby, hold me by the heart (hold me by the heart)

Help me fly again

Always read all the fairytales

Always knew that it would come

Through the pain I convinced myself

"It's only magical for some"

Somehow you came and like a prince and picked me up for good

And now I know what I have missed, I'm thinking that you should

Just pick up the pieces

Help me learn to stand

Lift me from the ground and use your hands

To hold me by the heart

Tell me I'll be whole again

And hold me by the heart

Tell me it will never end

'Cause I've begun to think that

I was nothing short of broken

So baby, hold me by the heart (hold me by the heart)

Help me fly again

(Pick up the pieces)

(Help me learn to stand) Help me learn to stand

(Lift me from the ground and)

(Use your hands) Use your hands

(Pick up the pieces) Hey

(Help me learn to stand) Help me learn to stand

(Lift me from the ground and)

(Use your hands) Use your hands

Use your hands

(Hold me by the heart)

(Hold me by the heart) Hold me by the heart

Tell me it would never end

'Cause I've begun to think that

I was nothing short of broken

So hold me by the heart

Help me fly again

Thank You lyrics - Kehlani

I never said that I had it all figured it out

I never said, I never said that I live my days without doubt

I swear all I've ever done is be honest and stay modest

So this is a, sincere, unscripted

Unwritten for all that you've given

Forgiving, I'm driven

I wanna be better than I was better than I am

So I say

All I'm trying to say is I thank you

I thank you

All I'm trying to say is I thank you

I thank you

All I'm trying to say is I thank you

I never said that I was done with my growth

I never said, I never said that I was done doing the most

And I swear all I've ever done was stay honest and keep my promise

So here goes my real life, unscripted

Unwritten for all that you've given

Forgiving, I'm driven

I wanna be better than I was, greater than I am

So I say

All I gotta say is I thank you

Thank you

All I gotta say is I thank you

Thank you

(Hey) Thank you for watching me walk across the stage

For walking me through my heartbreaks

Thanks for the love every step of the way

With no support this wouldn't be as great

Thank you for making me stronger than most

For taking it beyond my coast

Thank you for raising a glass when I toast

All I gotta say is I thank you

Thank you

All I gotta say is I thank you

Thank you

All I gotta say is I thank you

All I gotta say

Thank you

All I gotta say is I thank you

Gangsta lyrics - Kehlani

(Suicide Squad soundtrack)

I need a gangsta

To love me better

Than all the others do

To always forgive me

Ride or die with me

That's just what gangsters do

I'm fucked up, I'm black and blue

I'm built for all the abuse

I got secrets that nobody, nobody, nobody knows

I'm good on that pussy shit

I don't want what I can get

I want someone with secrets that nobody, nobody, nobody knows

I need a gangsta

To love me better

Than all the others do

To always forgive me

Ride or die with me

That's just what gangsters do

My freakness is on the loose

And running all over you

Please, take me to places that nobody, nobody knows

You got me hooked up on the feeling

You got me hanging from the ceiling

Got me up so high I'm barely breathing

So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me, don't let me go

I need a gangsta (gangsta gangsta)

To love me better (love me, love me better better, baby)

Than all the others do (they do, they do, they do, oh, oh, oh)

To always forgive me (always forgive me)

Ride or die with me (ride or die with me)

That's just what gangsters do (do, oh)

mixtape: You Should Be Here (2015)

Intro lyrics - Kehlani

[Phone rings]

[Grandpa:] Princess, belated Valentine's day

[Kehlani:] Happy belated Valentine's day, what are you doing?

[Grandpa:] What am I doing? Where are you?

[Kehlani:] I'm in the studio

[Grandpa:] You're in the studio... New York? Studio LA? Studio Atlanta? Studio here?

[Kehlani:] Studio in LA

[Grandpa:] In LA? Princess when do I get to see you? You know you are my granddaughter. You are like my daughter. Come on now

[Kehlani:] I know

[Grandpa:] Don't [?] out to the curb. I know you're the star on top of stars and everybody every day has to remind me. Do you know who Kehlani is? Do you know who your granddaughter is? I know who she is and I know who she was

They say God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. And as much as anyone can say how invincible I seem or how fearless I am or how brave I must be, I'm still human. And I've seen things and I've felt more pain than some will in their entire lives, all before the age of even being able to buy a fucking drink at a bar. But I have to be strong, not for myself but for a greater purpose, because I feel like my duty is far beyond me, you know? Beyond saving my family. It's for the world because somebody out there really needs to hear this. So to anybody who isn't here to see how far I've gone or how far I've yet to go. To family members that didn't make it or friends I lost along the way. Or maybe someone I gave my heart to that didn't know what to do with it. You should be here

You Should Be Here lyrics - Kehlani

[Verse 1:]

I'm looking right at you, but you're not there

I'm seeing right past you, but you seem well aware

Your body is here, but your mind is somewhere else

So far gone and you think I can't tell

Can't tell that you are disconnected

You pulled away and I miss your presence

I always said to you

[Chorus:]

Baby you should be here, right here

Don't know where you went but you're lost now

Don't know where you went but you're gone now

Don't know where you went but you're lost now

Don't know where you went but you're gone now

[Verse 2:]

Head on your chest babe, but your heart is so quiet

We use to talk all night long, now we laying in silence

Your arms around me but your soul is somewhere else

Gone so long and I know you so well

I know that you are everything that I ever dreamed of

And hoped that love had a happy ending

[Chorus]

You should be here, right, right here, yeah

How That Taste lyrics - Kehlani

They didn't want me then, they want me now

Did not want me to win, but now they're proud

Now they're payin' to get in, they in the crowd

Tell me how's it feel now? Tell me, how's it feel now?

Bein' low, yeah you a snake

You puttin' on a show, that Ricki Lake

Hey man I don't trip, my life's great

But swallow that pride, tell me how that shit taste

Tell me how that shit taste

Yeah tell me how that shit taste

Now tell me how that shit taste

Bitch tell me how that

Only squad eatin' cause the starve with me

And the mob goin' up cause they go hard for me

Yeah the only way's up, y'all gon' ball with me

Man the whole damn fam gon' touch the sky with me

Touch the sky with me, touch the sky with me

Man the whole damn fam gon' touch the sky with me

Touch the sky with me, touch the sky with me

Man the whole damn fam gon' touch the sky with me

They askin' for the verse, a hundred racks

If you ain't talkin' money, then run it back

My pockets too deep for 'em not to be stacked

Yeah you lookin' like distraction, now fall back

Bitch your music been weak, your fashion wack

Was talkin' out your neck, not even facts

I'm way too real to stoop low

I'm too busy on the road, I'm too busy bookin' shows

Yeah you know how that taste

Now tell me how that shit taste

Bitch tell me how that shit taste

Bitch tell me how that

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Only squad eatin' cause they starve with me

And the mob goin' up cause they go hard for me

Yeah the only way's up, y'all gon' ball with me

Man the whole damn fam gon' touch the sky with me

Touch the sky with me, touch the sky with me

Man the whole damn fam gon' touch the sky with me

Touch the sky with me, touch the sky with me

Man the whole damn fam gon' touch the sky with me

Jealous lyrics - Kehlani (feat. Lexii Alijai)

[Verse 1 - Kehlani:]

Pretty soon I'mma take your phone

Or you should hide it in yo pockets until you get home

Don't wanna see no tweets about the night we shared

Don't wanna hear reasons for it, baby I don't care

You and I both know I'm not just anybody

And I regret bringing yo ass to all those after-parties

You enjoyed yourself too much and you ain't barely started

I just can't invest in shit to end up broken-hearted

[Chorus:]

You stay taking pictures, pictures

Just to show them to your bitches, bitches

So you can make 'em jealous

Now I know where your head is

Man, you stay taking those pictures, pictures

Just to show them to your bitches, bitches

So you can make 'em jealous

So now I gotta dead this

[Verse 2 - Kehlani:]

So lowkey, I just stay out the way

I built a lab up in the crib so I don't leave all day

You always try to rush out when I need you to stay

But don't forget to post a pic of you with yo bae

And by the way, I see right through it

I let you slide now 'cause I know you're not use to it

If this is the way it is, don't even put me through it

I'm quick to cut it off, if you don't believe I'll do it

[Chorus]

[Verse 3 - Lexii Alijai:]

Look, look, look

Look, boy, don't tell me that you're sorry when

You with them bitches every night, when you be partying

Then you come late night, trying to hide your phone

You know that shit'll always end up in an argument, look

Why you always taking risk with me?

Hold me close by my waist, take pics with me

Women crush Wednesday's ain't mean shit to me

Little kid shit, I don't let it get to me

Literally the whole world know this shit

Need a girl but you busy chasing hoes and shit

You're the type to try to keep it on the low and shit

I need a real fly nigga, I'm the coldest bitch

I'm so legit, I goes and get

Got your bitches, they be all up on my shows and shit

Look, keep it real, 'cause every time we chill

All you wanna do is post a pic

[Chorus]

Niggas lyrics - Kehlani

[Verse 1:]

I'm young, I be sprung and

Sometimes it's just so damn fast

I'm not dumb, no I'm not dumb

I know exactly what went wrong in my past

So caught up

In what I thought it all should be

I'm locked up

So tired of losing parts of me

To all these niggas

[Chorus:]

Niggas gon' always be niggas

Can't afford to give my heart to these niggas

Ain't got time to lose my mind to these niggas

[Verse 2:]

I'm not yours, never was and

I really just can't be mad

I'm the one, I know, I'm the one

And I'm completely fine with everything that I am

Too damn strong

To let you get the best of me

Took way too long

To find the light inside of me

Fuck all these niggas

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]

Niggas, niggas gon' be niggas

Walkin' 'round so small but actin' like they're bigger

Actin' so damn bitter, lettin' go of their temper

I ain't got the time so I'll crop that ass out that picture

I'd be mad if I stayed true, it ain't in me to play you

If I took you down, yeah you can't talk shit cause I fed you

You was lost and I led you, a part of me, boy I bled you

Thought you was the one but you actin' like you one of these niggas

[Chorus]

Wanted lyrics - Kehlani

Ask a woman when you are broken

You make a choice to stay down or go and

Find something to bring you back

To get you right, get you right on track

I was chosen, he found me in the perfect moment

Found my lows and made them high

Saw my storm and cleared my skies

I don't think I can deny

He makes me feel wanted

Like no one has before

He don't want nothing from me

But to know my love's for sure

Hate to be you watching him love me

I'd hate to be you watching him touch me

Now I am blessed to have what I need

Nothing compares, he is all I see

When I loved you I didn't love me

You were this dark cloud hanging above me

Got all my girls like, "Lani where'd you go?

You've begun to slip away into where, nobody knows"

I'm doing better

I brushed myself off, changed the weather

Like the Sun you are so warm, and for once I feel adored

Oh I could not ask for more

He makes me feel wanted

Like no one has before

He don't want nothing from me

But to know my love's for sure

Hate to be you watching him love me

I'd hate to be you watching him touch me

Now I am blessed to have what I need

Nothing compares, he is all I see

The Way lyrics - Kehlani (feat. Chance the Rapper)

I still didn't believe

[Verse 1 - Kehlani:]

You so damn important

Everything you do shows me you know it

Behind it all, you are the motive

Don't tell you enough, but baby I'll show it, show it

He say the king where he come from

Takes a young queen just to know one

So baby I'm a drive it like it's stolen

I'm a fix it like it's broken

We can catch a flight out to London

Go to the mall spend a lump sum

They can try to catch up to us

But they're too busy making assumptions

[Bridge:]

(Boy you know)

All I do

Is stay up all night, losing sleep over you

All I do

Is drive myself crazy, thinking about my baby

[Hook:]

It's the way you walk, the way you talk, babe (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's the way you love, the way you fuck, the way (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's the way you are; you're a star babe (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's the way you, the way you, oh

[Verse 2 - Chance the Rapper:]

She said, "I ain't even make my bed up.

Watch your step: you gon' wake my mama and dad up."

Pshh girl, didn't I tell you at the damn club

We gon' wake your neighbors

Turn your block club to my fan club

And it happened so fast

Damn, I'm glad I strapped up

Ask her when she finished, if she came

She said I lapped ya twice, uh

Run it back for the door, rematch

Flip the crib when we fuck, Remax

It get hot den a mug, glass cup

You can ask her if I fuck, she gassed (huh)

I gotta keep it a secret, I keep a key in my lower pocket

Inside a register below the lower octave

Dirty laundry in my closet, they be strung out on the street

Left to dry with dry sheets and no deposit

They don't gotta worry, put my hand on your mouth

Put my hands in your mouth, girl

We got plans at my house, you know the way up

[Hook]

[Verse 3 - Kehlani:]

This thing we got is crazy

Only thing I know is you're my baby

Forever down, I am your lady

Always for sure, never a maybe, uh-uh

Never met someone who spoke my language

Never met a nigga done with playin'

You the type of nigga make me lane switch

Hand me the brush and say paint it

Give me your heart, and I'll hold it

Show me your soul, and I'll mold it

Baby boy you gotta be the dopest

Gotta be to fuck with the coldest

[Bridge]

[Hook]

Unconditional lyrics - Kehlani

I'm far from perfect, nothing even close

But that's what makes me beautiful, that's something you should know

I'm not looking for someone to tell me how to row my boat

So let me live and let me learn I promise we will grow

If you love me like you say you love me

You'll be a man, you'll grab my hand

Take me as I am

I wanna l-l-l-l-l-l-l-love unconditional

I wanna l-l-l-l-l-l-l-love

Sometimes I come home and I'm sweaty from the day

And my hair's all in a messy bun cause I had to get it out my face

And I rather lace my sneakers up cause high heels ain't my thing

And I don't see a flaw in that, I never want to change

If you love me like you say

You'll be a man, you'll grab my hand

Take me as I am

I wanna l-l-l-l-l-l-l-love unconditional

I wanna l-l-l-l-l-l-l-love

So if you love me like you say

You'll be my man

Grab my hand

Take me as I am

The Letter lyrics - Kehlani

I can hear your laugh

It's ringing through the hallways

I can see your smile

It's what gets me through my hard days

And your words was suppose to get me through my heartache, before my heartbreak

There's an emptiness that only few ever feel

And I somehow missed the meaning of love that is real

And it compliments my scars that will never heal

Maybe I didn't deserve you

Maybe I just couldn't cure you

They told me that I didn't hurt you

Why do I feel like I turned you?

Maybe I don't understand it

Tell me is this how you planned it?

Did you see us so stranded

Maybe I'm too much to manage

And if you weren't gonna guide me

Why bring me into the light?

Must have done something to make you want to run and hide

Why oh why didn't you just live your life?

And every girl needs a mother

And damn it I needed you

Instead you duck for cover

And you ran from the truth

And like kids do

You waited around for proof

Maybe I didn't deserve you

Maybe I just couldn't cure you

They told me that I didn't hurt you

Why do I feel like I turned you?

And maybe I don't understand it

Tell me is this how you planned it?

Did you see us so stranded

Maybe I'm too much to manage

Maybe I didn't deserve you...

Runnin' (Interlude) lyrics - Kehlani

You saw right through every last bit of me

I should've known it from your energy

We've got this synergy, your soul was close like it remembers me

Instilled in me

90 degrees in California, you put chills in me

Said it's something about my city, something about my city

Oakland girls so damn hood but we're so damn pretty

Sometimes the town just brings you down but we've been no pity

Don't need no extra bodies, I got the connect with me

It's why you connect with me, it's why you could step with me

Why you can go hit the carpets, go 'head and get dressed with me

Make me forget my ex and you onto the next with me

Love has everything to do, Bobby needs his creds Whitney

I always said I'd be the one to do it

I changed the way they lookin' at us women makin' music

Don't put back on the crown, stop makin' us look so stupid

Not worried about these niggas unless it's you that I'm choosin'

Even if I chose I feel like you're the right decision

Yeah you got aspirations, you ain't fuckin' up the vision

I love that you're not worried 'bout any other niggas

Only longing for persistence, only want something consistent

Does it make you nervous I'm not afraid to say what I want?

Does it put fear into your heart that I know where I started

Far from where I begun?

Cause I know every man has a fear of a strong-minded woman

But I say she's a keeper if she got it on her own and keeps it runnin'

If she can keep it all runnin'

Keeps it runnin'

If she can keep it all runnin'

Keeps it runnin'

If she can keep it all runnin'
