That’s Enough!
[I wanted to step out of my comfort zone on That’s Enough!. This one is kinda for the ladies, but not in the usual way, I don’t think. I tried to write as if I was like an insider into some girls’ minds on a night out, but really I’m guessing. Hypothesizing, maybe, based on experience. Girls are a mixed bag, man. More than anything, I wanted to do something fun on a crazy beat. I have no clue what “Put a 3 on the beat” means, lmao, but it’s kinda lit ain’t it?]
All they wanna see is the green
that’s enough
ima put a three on the beat
that’s enough
ballin like i’m
huh huh huh
that’s enough
ballin like i’m
huh huh huh
that’s enough
[When I first heard the beat and was thinking of choruses, I was inspired by Kodak Black’s kind-of-lazy melodies. If you listen with that in mind you might hear it, but it was sum slight. The idea here is like, “Okay, sir, you’ve done enough balling, ummmm I think that’s enough!”]
alright
okay
maybe in a past life
[I’m narrating my thoughts in snippets. I’m trying to figure our how this girl is so fwoine. The “Alright, Okay” motif is me reacting to something impressive she’s doing. The girl knows how to MOVE.]
alright okay
how lil mama get so bad like
alright okay
out here like she poppin tags like
alright okay
and now she throwin ass
alright okay
ask her what she like
she like to dance wit no problem
[This is me having an internal dialogue trying to find the words to say to this girl. Does she even want to be talked to fr? Maybe it’s girls night and she’s not trying to be bothered. But! Maybe not…only one way to find out!]
ask her what she like
she just like the friends without the drama
“i don’t really have girl friends”
[Ever since I saw Bino do the break mid freestyle to have a conversation (real ones know) I’ve been keen to put that into a song. I break mid song to perform this snippet of conversation. There’s a trope that girls who only have guy friends say that it’s because guys are less drama, (*21* fax) but the trope says they actually just like the attention/options.]
ask her what she like
she just want some dick and olive garden
[I know y’all are out there. HML. I actually HAHAHA the album cover is a deep fried and heavily edited picture of Olive Garden breadsticks.]
ask her what she like
she rather be in her pajamas
ask her what she like
she not really fuckin with the vibe
guess it ain’t her cup of chai
i think she callin it a night
if that’s alright alright alright
[Maybe you can hear, but I’m on the track ad-libbing “That’s 100% my type.” It is and it isn’t. Party girls are cool too, but I am more homebody on average, so I like a girl to homebody with me.]
now you could you stare while the lady try to dance
or better
make her night with confidence take a chance
and tell her [SERIOUSLY! I don’t splash 100% of the time, but you starin’, non-actin’ mfs make the vibe weird. Go say sum. This is also a reminder to myself on those nights when I’m a little slow to start. That conversation and dance can make both our nights. Speaking from experience!]
like you look fly
you just caught my eye
i thought i’d come and slide
what’s your name
cuz i was sure that i was callin you tonight
[I really think I’m soooo smoooooth HAHAHA. Get it? Like, calling you Tonight? I’m like…smooth x cheesy. You can’t just copy lines, they gotta come from the heart. I came up with this one and I lokey might run it and report back on the results.]
Slow dance until the mornin
My stamina stay performer
Her status conveyed through yawnin
I came here to change your evening
I can see the thing transforming
I know peons steady swarming
But baby I aint no regular
Im ALLOVERGREEN [s/o ALLOVERGREEN]
[I came through with the moves and truly saved this girls night. I’m saying here “I know lames have been throwing themselves at you and that you got your guard up, but I’m pretty cool AND I can actually show you I’m pretty cool in the moment.” Then shout-out ALLOVERGREEN. I mentioned that it’s a word I have claimed, but it’s also a dope superhero name. Mr. Save-ya-night.]
