[Intro]
Oh, yeah
Yeah, oh, yeah
Ooh

[Verse 1]
Give it a rest, my love, let's take this slow
We both need some room to breathe
And if you know what's best for you and me
You should leave, baby

[Pre-Chorus]
So weak when you're around me
So weak when you're around me, yeah, ooh

[Chorus]
Just because we're two little people in this big old world
I could make a living, baby, you could be my girl
I won't sell drugs no more, I'll move you out the city
I'm taking you with me, I'm taking you with me
'Cause if I don't got you, then I got nobody at all

[Verse 2]
A cigarette between her lips
She knows just how to work a man like me
And she knows she gets exactly what she needs
I'm so weak, baby

[Pre-Chorus]
So weak when you're around me
So weak when you're around me, yeah

[Chorus]
Your parents say we're two little people in this big old world
But I could make a living, baby, you could be my girl
I won't sell the coke no more, I'll move you out the city
I'm taking you with me, I'm taking you with me
'Cause if I don't got you then I got nobody
I got nobody, I got nobody at all

[Outro]
Yeah, so weak, so weak
Oh, yeah

​blackbear

blackbear is the stage name of LA-based producer and singer-songwriter Mat Musto, popularly known for co-writing Justin Bieber’s “Boyfriend,” in 2012. Some of his first collaborations were with the likes of Pharrell Williams, MGK, and Childish Gambino. Later, Musto reinvented himself—he coined the name blackbear from a previous EP titled Year of the Blackbear. Under his new name, he started leaning more towards rapping and an R&B-oriented style.

His first mixtape Sex included collaborations with his peers James Blake, Maejor Ali, and “Boyfriend” co-writer Mike Posner. The Afterglow followed in 2014.

In 2015, blackbear released “idfc,” as the lead single from his debut album Deadroses. It increased his fan following and revenue, earning him millions of playback streams and a spot on Billboard’s Uncharted List of Undiscovered and Upcoming Artists. The second single, “90210,” included a feature from G-Eazy—blackbear made an appearance in his 2014 track, “Remember You.”
