[Chorus]
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands (Uh, sophisticated)
And she spoke words of wisdom (Uh, I'm glad we made it, it's Hoodie, it's Hoodie)
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands (Let me drop that)
And she spoke words of wisdom (Let me drop that)

[Verse 1]
I had a vision of us winning now it's gone again
Got the world on my legs, Landon Donovan
But shit ain't always what it seems like Juwanna Mann
Worst case I'll be back in four years just to run again
Now I be the running man, I deliver goods, don't cater
This shit's hot, someone turn up the AC Slater
If not, then I burn up these tapes like paper
But for life decisions I needed tips like waiters
Got Clipse I waited and they both gave me props
Cleaned up the arena like they both gave me mops
Venus and Serena how we floating these lobs
And stay way over your dome 'til the thrones what we got
But they tell me keep a level head just in case we blow
I be peeping levels ahead like a cheat code
And once you got it, they can't take it back repo
Back to the future baby, we don't need roads, we go

[Chorus]
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands
And she spoke words of wisdom
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands
And she spoke words of wisdom

[Verse 2]
These people feeding me lines, they think I'm Kate Moss
I'm all about the promotion until I'm made boss
Got flow like bros that try to play lacrosse
And now my name is stuck in all your throats like a late cough
So pardon me, I'm hardly congested
Fans so down, they Dow Jones investments
But we the blue chip, give you that new shit
Ship is never sinking, we avoiding all the loose lips
Came out of my cage now they wanna baby proof this
I do it for the babes but I swear I'm never ruthless
'Cause that's small ball, swinging through the screw pitch
Sometimes I gotta watch my mouth like a toothpick
They ask "who's this?" Fam I never lack that
RJF been holding all these tracks like a backpack
I hit 21 now, blackjack
Looking to my future, homie swear I'll never backtrack

[Chorus]
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands
And she spoke words of wisdom
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands
And she spoke words of wisdom

[Bridge]
Let me go and I might just fall
Saying my cause just might be lost
So I know that if I stay tall
The words that I need can't write me off
The words I need can't write me off
The words I need can't write me off
The words I need can't write me off
I'll be here for forever man
I'll be here for forever man
I'll be here for forever man

[Chorus]
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands
And she spoke words of wisdom
And she spoke words that would melt in your hands
And she spoke words of wisdom
