[Verse]
This is how I talk when I’m in love
Baby nobody got it like you
Roses are red, Crips are still blue
My heart bleeds when the pen spills ink too
We stick like glue
I’ve been stationary
I think this weather got me
Californication you a Christian
So you only believe in missionary
Not even sex before we get to marry huh?
You bring the sunshine
You the definition in the dictionary
Forgive me But this is is how I talk when I'm in love
I feel you’re like an enough For A kinG on mission
Found my queen and she’s thе new edition
No Bobby and Whitney
You a drug (you a drug)
You Drug to my condition
Whеn love steady talking girl I listen to the rhythm
