Lyrics

Rockstar

I need a rockstar
I'm into tyrants
Playin' strings with violence
A bridal riot
(Kiss and kill)
Why would I need your man when I've got nine?
(Skins and pressure)
He'd control me, but I'm really not that guy

I need a rockstar
I'm into tyrants
Playin' strings with violence
A bridal riot
(Kiss and kill)
Why would I need your man when I've got nine?
(Skins and pressure)
He'd control me, but I'm really not that guy
Hey, alright!

Skins in a pot like genie
Envious green, that's me, that's kiwi
Etiquette ridin' a rim, that's greedy
Car crash, walked in, bridges start bleeding

This is anger from the sky
Bitch, just get the hell inside
Wish she would, we'll get her right
Hey

Pet shop, nut shop, non-stop
Gang, gang, gang, gang, like pop off
Bang, bang, bang, bang, like hot-shot
You better bite back if you top dog
Let her in
Need her sin, need her next of kin

Are you in?
Are you in, Are you in?

I need a rockstar
I'm into tyrants
Playin' strings with violence
A bridal riot
(Kiss and kill)
Why would I need your man when I've got nine?
(Skins and pressure)
He'd control me, but I'm really not that guy
Hey, alright!

Yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Oh!
I need a rockstar!

I got banished
I'm too damaged
Blood and baggage
Life's no fair

My king and I'm his queen
That's royal bling
Black excellence, our ice will sting
Born of silence, I knew my locs would lock him in

Chitt-chitty like bang
Big Billy mountain
Still silly, clout den
Wa wa wa wa wa wa wa!

Sticky and pretty, he pay for my pity
I want him, but really a thief, call him NI-KI
I got him all giddy, I got what he give me
A treat and a-

Trick trick trick trick
They chat like chit chit chit chit
They Kat like they Kit Kit Kit Kit
I'm walking around and they see me
They buzzin' 'cause they wanna be me

I need a rockstar
I'm into tyrants
Playin' strings with violence
A bridal riot
(Kiss and kill)
Why would I need your man when I've got nine?
(Skins and pressure)
He'd control me but I'm really not that guy

I need a rockstar
I need a rockstar
(Kiss and kill)
Why would I need your man when I've got nine?
(Skins and pressure)
He'd control me but I'm really not that guy
Hey, alright!
