[Chorus]
Won't you keep in touch with me?
Don't lose it, don't lose it
Won't you stop beatin' up on me?
Ayy, don't abuse it, don't abuse it
Won't you fall in love with me?
I say, stop losing, stop losing
You gon' end up winning with me
Ayy, don't lose it, don't lose it

[Verse 1]
Ayy, I'ma ride it like a Kawaski bike
When you feel down, I'ma be the one that make you feel right
If he gon' have you riding, I'ma be that one that make you catch flights
I'ma flood you in the black diamonds, they gon' think you a knight
Ayy, I got them dark blue true's with the buttons like pendants
Walkin' down Rodeo, your real hair like Indian remy
Mix match bottoms, pockets fat but the true's will fit it
'Cause I got pounds of the kush, and I sold tons of the midget
And everytime I think about you, I, I want sex baby
Dancing down the pole, you the best baby
I know you kinda busy but I want next baby
I-I want next baby, have my next baby, yeah
Fuck what they saying about me and you
'Cause I'm on garden food, and you on garden food
And I done did so much wrong in these streets
God gave me back, 'cause I'm miss you and you ain't missing me
But try to just

[Chorus]
Keep in touch with me
Don't lose it, don't lose it
Won't you stop beatin' up on me?
Ayy, don't abuse it, don't abuse it
Won't you fall in love with me?
I say, stop losing, stop losing
You gon' end up winning with me
Ayy, don't lose it, don't lose it

[Verse 2]
Ayy, I'ma fuck you like I never did tonight
Choppas everywhere, you have no reason to fright
If I try to talk to you, you were mad we had skype
You gon' get the text I sent said "everything gon' be alright"
Ayy, I'ma come to you right home when I get back
Girl, you know your loving got Young Thugga like crack
Girl, you know you kill me when you act like a brat
You said the only noise you wanna hear when they rub is br-aaaat
Ayy, and I'ma treat it like it's never ever been treated
I say I'ma beat it like it's never ever been beated
I say I'ma feature like it's never been featured
And I'ma eat it like it's never been eaten, yeah
Ayy, and I'ma come back for it
Oh, that roadblock? I'ma ride past for it
Oh, I will bust my ass for it
I ran my money up, now I can afford
But you should

[Chorus]
Keep in touch with me
Don't lose it, don't lose it
Won't you stop beatin' up on me?
Ayy, don't abuse it, don't abuse it
Won't you fall in love with me?
I say, stop losing, stop losing
You gon' end up winning with me
Ayy, don't lose it, don't lose it

Jeffery Lamar Williams (b. August 16, 1991), popularly known as Young Thug, is an innovative trap artist from Atlanta known for his experimental vocal styles on versatile production ranging from hard trap beats to experimental pop records. Thug is known as a pioneer for much of the 2010s generation of rap, and his constant cosigns, features, and chart presence cement his status as a leader in the streaming era and current rap scene.

While Young Thug released his first mixtape in 2011, it wasn’t until fellow ATL trap artist Gucci Mane took Thug under his wing in 2013 that he began to see great success as an artist. That year, Thug released his first major hit, “Stoner,” which quickly gained viral traction on social media, then “Danny Glover,” which propelled him to an even larger scale of success. After Gucci Mane went to prison in 2013, Thug saw success by re-aligning himself with Cash Money Records’s own Birdman and his newly-formed Rich Gang collective with the hit single “Lifestyle” and a collaborative mixtape before officially signing to 300 Ent. in 2015. Under 300, Thug continued to release many more singles, mixtapes, and features, gradually boosting his popularity before releasing his debut album, So Much Fun, which topped the Billboard 200 on August 31, 2019.

After 2015’s “Best Friend” became Thug’s first platinum single, his 2016 collaboration with Travis Scott, “pick up the phone,” became his new highest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100. This would later be succeeded by “Havana” with Camila Cabello, the best-selling single of 2018. However, his current highest-charting song as lead artist is “Hot,” which topped the Rolling Stone 100 and peaked at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100, surpassing his previous biggest hit, “The London,” which peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100.
