Shotgun

[Verse 1: Little Simz]

Oh, it's official when you know it

Don't say nothin' if you can't show it

Boy, are you a talker or a doer?

Victim or the shooter?

Let me know now 'cause there's some niggas that wish they knew her

I'm a complex human being

Man there's more than one side to me

I'm all ears when you need that

You should confide in me

If there's one thing that I ask for

Honesty, don't lie to me

Been dolo for a long time

This is God's sign

Let me know when you're on

I'm in the OK space, got my own place

Drive my own whip, run my own ship

All that's missin' is a co-pilot

Ride shotgun with me, wish you not fight this when I roll out one on my hip

[Hook: Syd]

When I'm out, you know I got one

If you don't then you better cop one

'Cause I always keep 'em rolling shotgun, shotgun, shotgun

Too many for me to keep up

So I never leave home without one

And I always keep 'em rolling shotgun, shotgun, shotgun

[Verse 2: Little Simz]

Oh, caught in the cross fire

My ex nigga wanna know me, lookin' all fire

No, this shouldn't even be my focus right now

I aspire to inspire, way before I'ma retire

That's the shit I live by every day

We can do this if you on it

I'm not tryna play games

Talk to me proper, do not try and spit game

"Simz, I'm just tryna get to know you," no, you don't say?

"You're the girl of my dreams," no, you don't say?

I'ma be a minute so you better not wait

Company is maybe all I needed right now

And you're an easy target

Don't take that the wrong way

But ride shotgun with me, ay

[Hook: Syd]

When I'm out, you know I got one

If you don't then you better cop one

'Cause I always keep 'em rolling shotgun, shotgun, shotgun

Too many for me to keep up

So I never leave home without one

And I always keep 'em rolling shotgun, shotgun, shotgun

[Bridge: Syd]

Can't trust just anyone that you meet on the street

That's why I always keep a piece

Don't try to test me

Please, they come in all shapes and sizes

So don't come with no surprises

I ain't got time, baby

Got time

[Verse 3: Little Simz]

Oh, gotta see it to believe

Always keep it 100, I didn't come to deceive

I know you probably have wondered if this was ever to be

Got love for you in abundance, never worth a discussion

You entertain interruptions, what's with you and assumptions?

Damn it, I shoulda known why these niggas is hoes

Shoulda put you to work and kept you up on your toes

Shoulda listened to Bibi, you're condescendin' and needy

Don't start today, play with my heart today

Won't last a day, it's what the haters say

Now we're partin' ways, you are far from brave

Wasn't worth the time but oh boy, you fine

[Hook: Syd]

When I'm out, you know I got one

If you don't then you better cop one

'Cause I always keep 'em rolling shotgun, shotgun, shotgun

Too many for me to keep up

So I never leave home without one

And I always keep 'em rolling shotgun, shotgun, shotgun

[Outro: Little Simz & Syd]

It's a stick up, put your hands in the air like it's a stick up

It's a stick up, put your hands in the air like it's a stick up

Yeah, it's a stick up, put your hands in the air like it's a stick up

Yeah, that's right, it's a stick up, put your hands in the air like it's a stick up
