ALLOVERGREEN
keepin my city
sterling and clean
[Sterling = Starling. Sterling is also the term for a kind of silver with high percent purity. Both me and Oliver Queen are keepin the city clean and saving the game AND lookin fly-as-hell while we do it]
watch me
you watch me
i walk like a king
body jeans fitting
baby i like ya petition
[I walk like a king because I am one. And kings get petitioned. People ask them to do things on the regular, and it falls under consideration.
But the way them jeans fittin...
Sheeeee permission granted fytb]
it isn’t nothing like fridays
or them high waist
a professional kitchen
[I started off listing things I like lol. I'm a teacher, so I pray for Fridays.
There's controversy around high-waisted jeans, but I think they're solid.
And I like to cook...]
i get her wet with that fried egg
have her sideways
cuz i like the position
[I'm a pretty good cook, too. Niggas got value. She like a good cook, my food turn her on. Then I have her sideways because I like the position. True story]
i’m switching lanes on the highway/
in the broad day
then the light fade/
turn to night time
make the ground shake/
my uncle just
hit me with woofers
and tinteds
[Woofers and tinteds = Subwoofers and tinted windows. I had borrowed the car from my uncle when I wrote this. Had to shout out man-mans. Shout out, unc! Right before he let me go, he showed me the woofers he installed, and I felt like a P.I.M.P. rollin around, arm-outstretched, seat reclined wit the tinted windows.]
parallel park at the start
when i’m finished
im not the type to be gunnin the engine
i gotta be mindful of momma nem wishes
this is a product of my independence
i took half the day just to handle my business
[On god, I ain't even go crazy in the car. I went to the movies, stopped at a dispensary, then took my ass back home fr.
AND I drove safe asl. I could speed raced that ho but I DIDN'T.
This is a product of my independence; I gotta be mindful of momma 'nem wishes ]

girl be my witness

[When I see someone interesting when I'm out and about, I go and say what's up, see what's to 'em. I spit a lil dorky game, it works for me.
This is like...my aggressive inner monologue that I filter into what ACTUALLY comes out my mouth.]
i’m finna make you come fast
like them winners do (brrr/zoom ad lib)
[Winners come fast through the finish line, also I'm from the Chi where winter can come outta nowhere. Come fast like them winters do.]

i’m plottin on how do we make things more private
but i got too much on my hands
I guess I couldnt handle the ass
[She was the first of many. Literally I was overwhelmed, I had to leave HAHAHA]
not when they start to surrounding and spouting
i came here to spazz and leave with some fans
[Y'all finna see greatness, period]
i’m on a mission efficient to relieve the distance and grip you by taking your heart
and later your hips
the game is on lock
you parting your lips
i’m tryna kiss you while minding my manners
[I feel like this part of dating isn't talked about enough in music. Or maybe I don't listen to the music that talks about it. Always straight to the sex, like where did y'all come from?? Story build a little, gimme some reality!
But yeah, I'm a lil romantic or whatever. I might wanna jump you right now, but the setting ain't quite right. A lil delayed gratification never hurt nobody, and I'm not tryna show too much too early. Gentleman tings.]
All i ever wanted
Got it now i’m flauntin
Can I beg your pardon
Say the word and I’ll be on it

i walk like a king
body jeans fitting
baby i like ya petition
[At some point this chorus evolved into me creating my own word: ALLOVERGREEN. It means fresh to mf death. The greatest green you can think of, all-the-way over. It felt like something Weezy or Kanye would do, and they're some of my personal goats. Bless the giants' shoulders]
[ALLOVERGREEN means a couple different things to me. I have this green bomber I think I look fly as hell in; that's part of how I came up with the definition.
ALLOVERGREEN also sounds like Oliver Queen, AKA the Green Arrow, a superhero who wears all green and protects his hometown, Starling City]
