Honey baby, please don't play me
Just don't talk right now
Honey baby, honey baby
You got money signs all in your eyes
But I just can't come down
Honey baby, honey baby

Escúchame, or else there will be hell to pay
If it ain't about a dollar you can get on down the way
I got cousins who got husbands
Tryna tell em what to say
In Colombia we got youngins really workin' for the bank
She coked out, toked out
Homie tryna pick her up to poke out

Don't got time for the bullshit so
Don't let the door hit you on the way out
Bitches wanna be loc'd out
Only want a life they don't know about
Don't forget where I came from
[?]

Honey baby, honey baby
Honey baby, please don't play me
Honey baby, honey baby
Please don't play me, just don't talk right now
You got money signs all in your eyes
But I just can't come down

I see everybody talkin'
But I cannot hear a sound
I see shadows in their eyes
We're chasing sunshine off the clouds

They look at me funny when I write a check
Cause most of these bitches is payin' in sex
He dial up my number and callin' collect
When I was road-running just like a corvette
A lady of leisure, forever a threat
Who never compete, who never forget
I'm givin' my all and I never neglect
If you show me equivalent respect

I let her ride out to my hideout
In the mountains
My own girl find out
And she still say that I'm handsome
Nobody's perfect but we got the soul of champions
Wash away your sins with all that Gucci in the Hamptons

She lost her soul to win the world
And now it's played out
I just wanted you with me
In the sun all laid out
Remove the weave and all that other shit that you weren't made out

Let's stay in our room late
Let's create our own route
And all that anger for the weak, so you should let it go
I'm here at your leisure
And I know that you been down to roll

This could be forever
And I'll leave if you need room to grow
But life is fast, life is short
So I'm not tryna take it slow
Life is fast, life is short
So I'm not tryna take it slow

Honey baby, honey baby
You got money signs all in your eyes
But I just can't come down (I can't come down now)
Honey baby (I can't come down now)
Honey baby (I can't come down now)

Honey baby, honey baby
You got money signs all in your eyes
But I just can't come down (I can't come down now)
Honey baby (I can't come down now)
Honey baby (I can't come down now)

Karly-Marina Loaiza (born July 17, 1994), better known as her stage name Kali Uchis, is a Colombian-American singer, songwriter, record producer, music video director, and fashion designer.

Sporting a 50’s aesthetic (from which Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald are cited influences), Kali’s brand of art pop spans the length of many genres of soul (doo-wop, reggae, funk, quiet storm, psychedelia) with a Latina twist.

Kali grew up playing saxophone and piano; she was introduced to music production and video editing while she was in high school and released her debut project Drunken Babble in 2012. Since then, Kali has gone on to release a 2015 EP, Por Vida, and her debut album, Isolation, in 2018.
