When the Cheering Stops

[Intro: AZ]

Yeah

It's on now

You know?

NFL type of thing

My man Scott and Ray holding the fort down

[Verse 1: Ray Buchanan]

Is your love just dedicated on my success

Will you still be standing by my side if ever there's a test?

You're apart of me now, that I don't doubt

But if you leave me later I might not survive that drop

When the debts are high and the money's come and gone

Will you still be in my corner helping me to carry on

Will you be holding me after the cheering stops?

Will you, baby?

(Zhané)

[Chorus: Zhané]

After the cheering stops

There will be no love lost

I'll take you by your hand

And stay, oh no

After the cheering stops

There will be no love lost

I'll take you by your hand

And stay, oh no

[Verse 2: Ray Buchanan]

Tick, tock, in the fourth quarter, when it stops

Will you be there no matter what to give me props

'Cause on the daily it drives me crazy

From the struggle, are you my lady?

When I was balling you wasn't stalling

To give me love when I was up, but now I'm falling

To a level down to Earth with everybody else

Do you want me for me or spotlight for yourself

The NFL not for long, so don't be bugging

Is it the jersey or the hype, or me you're loving, or lusting

For all my skills to pay the bills for a sista

I got with ya because (you're my lady)

No diggity, so feel me

You wanna get with then understand me, G

The fundamentals, it's potential, it's essential

The way you make me feel, yo it's crucial, so

[Chorus: Zhané]

After the cheering stops

There will be no love lost

I'll take you by your hand

And stay, oh no

After the cheering stops

There will be no love lost

I'll take you by your hand

And stay, oh no

[Verse 3: AZ]

I know when times are [?] can a fella trust you?

But you know the hustle, life is like a card shuffle

And for the dough, how I come and go, I'm coming slow

I'm tryna know 'fore my dough start to running low, so

Let's connect in some nighttime sweat

And you can bet when it come to sex, like mine's wet

And verbal, we can sin and rob

Get live so I can get inside, find foulness and prescribe

Begin again without camouflaging and blending in

Betting Benjamins on the Superbowl, who's gonna win?

It's me and you, back to back, how we do

Let's become [?] and multiply by two

[?] sports

Yo, be strong, let's hold down the fort

Cause it's [?] getting slowed down in court

And though I can't call

If not, couldn't say I never saw it

[Bridge: Ray Buchanan & Zhané]

I'll be right here when the cheering stops

I'll be what you need

I'll be right here when the cheering stops

Need to know that

I'll be right here when the cheering stops

The cheering stops
