Selfish Lyrics by Hope

2019

(Verse1)
Girl I gotta lotta things on my mind
And lately baby I just wanna be a little selfish
I promised you the world when I ain’t got time for us
Ain’t got time for love (Time for us)
Girl I gotta lotta things on my mind
And lately baby I just wanna be a little selfish
I promised you the world when I ain’t got time for us
Ain’t got time for love...

(Pre-Hook)
I be on the north side but I’m from the south side (South-side, yeah)
Chillin' on the west side talkin' to my east side bitches
(To my east-side, east-side)
But girl I apologise maybe we can compromise (Ah, yea)
Or are we done? (Are we done?)
No it ain’t done...

(Hook)
What’s a young nigga gotta do?
What’s young nigga gotta do
When I got these hoes on the line (Ah, yea)
What’s a young nigga gotta do?
What’s young nigga gotta do
When I got these hoes on the line
When really I just wanna be faithful
Girl I just wanna be faithful
Baby i just wanna be faithful
Girl I just wanna be faithful, (Yeah)
Too ya

(Verse 2)
Independent and you do your thing
Got your own money and you do yo thang
Thinking maybe we can do our thang
Girl it’s only that I want
Yea, yea, yea yea

(Hook)
What’s a young homie gotta do?
What’s young homie gotta do
When I got these girls online (Ah, yea)
What’s a young homie gotta do?
What’s young homie gotta do
When I see these girls online

(Outro)
Should I be offline and chill with you
Should I be offline and be with you
Really I just wanna be faithful...
