Lyrics

Activate

[Intro: Swae Lee]

(Jaxx wins)

(G- g- go ahead, O)

Yeah, crack

Hey

Shit, make it rain

[?] that thing, oh

[Chorus: Swae Lee & Future]

Activate, activate, activate, activate (Yeah)

Only smokin' gas and that nigga call it elevate (Only smokin' gas)

Only ridin' foreign engines, nigga, 'cause I graduated (Yeah)

I put bad bitches with bad bitches, call it match makin'

I'm like a movie star without the roleplay (Roleplay)

I remember back in the old days (Back in the old days)

I don't got no heart, I need x-ray (X-ray)

I'm not normal no more (Yeah)

[Verse 1: Future]

Yeah, fly her out the sky, that mean she activated

I gave her a Xanny, she was activatеd

I'm tryna sing off her panties, she gеttin' activated

Oh, take her to the Webster, let her get activated, yeah

Put her on the schedule, now she activated, yeah

Look to fuck these racks up, fuck the calculation

I bet she jump inside this coupe, she gon' get activated

Eight-inch heels, Jimmy Choo's, shawty activated

I get in mood if I could choose, she say she activated

Had to switch positions like a six-speed

Top of the morning, we gettin' privacy

Look like a strip club in my hotel suite

Got empty bottles and models, my heart empty

Swear she hit the lotto the day she met me

I'm higher than a sky scrapper, I don't want her no more

Told her play with her vibrator, I don't want no more

Got a bad bitch on a bad bitch, that's ride for

[Chorus: Swae Lee & Future]

Activate, activate, activate, activate (Yeah)

Only smokin' gas and that nigga call it elevate (Only smokin' gas)

Only ridin' foreign engines, nigga, 'cause I graduated (Yeah)

I put bad bitches with bad bitches, call it match makin'

I'm like a movie star without the roleplay (Roleplay)

I remember back in the old days (Back in the old days)

I don't got no heart, I need x-ray (X-ray)

I'm not normal no more

[Verse 2: Swae Lee]

Ballin' in the gym

Eatin' off the floor like a fuckin' picnic

Layin' on the CashApp, ooh, plastic tip

When you count it, yeah, hope you get a stiff wrist (Oh)

One strike, two strike, three strikes, you're out

Pinstripes, Louis V, standin' on the dugout

Turnpike, dirtbike, swerve left, swerve right

Activate, activate, kamikaze bombs fly

Baby girl, I'm goin' out my brain (Gon', look at me)

Baby, you got ass like a tank (Like a tank)

Hit you on the seat, aw yeah, leave a stain (Stain)

ESPN, baby, I'm's in the game (Yeah, in the game)

Can't let this shit go to your brain (Brain)

Live up to the hype, we the hype, that's on game (Game)

Knockout diamonds, hit a mean Johnny Cage

Player shit, baby girl, I'm walkin' with a cane

[Chorus: Swae Lee, Future, Slim Jxmmi]

Activate, activate, activate, activate (Yeah)

Only smokin' gas and that nigga call it elevate (Only smokin' gas)

Only ridin' foreign engines, nigga, 'cause I graduated (Yeah)

I put bad bitches with bad bitches, call it match makin'

I'm like a movie star without the roleplay (Roleplay)

I remember back in the old days (Back in the old days)

I don't got no heart, I need x-ray (X-ray)

I'm not normal no more (Ayy, ayy)

[Verse 3: Slim Jxmmi]

I'm not human no more

I'm passin' out the L's 'cause I ain't losin' no more

Activate, I'm the one who holds the remote

Demons knockin', I would never open the door

All I see is opportunity around me

Louis V trenchcoat, models do surround me

You can save the bullshit for the birds

Started in apartments, but we took it to the 'burbs

These Cartiers prescription, yeah, I'm lookin' like a nerd

I don't got no heartbeat, can you call the nurse? (Oh)

Oh, wait, pockets, yeah, I'm out of shape

I can't wait, I need what I'm owed today

I always show up early, I ain't never late

Out in Paris and we order up the Wagyu steak

I never saw nobody come up off of hate

Bulletproof my SUV's, now they can't see my face

I'm still the same person when I'm out of state

And this my destiny, to win, no, you can't change my fate

[Chorus: Swae Lee & Future]

Activate, activate, activate, activate (Yeah)

Only smokin' gas and that nigga call it elevate (Only smokin' gas)

Only ridin' foreign engines, nigga, 'cause I graduated (Yeah)

I put bad bitches with bad bitches, call it match makin'

I'm like a movie star without the roleplay (Roleplay)

I remember back in the old days (Back in the old days)

I don't got no heart, I need x-ray (X-ray)

I'm not normal no more (I'm not human no more)

[Outro: Swae Lee]

Oh, yeah

I'm makin' snow angels in that money, baby, I got more (More, more, more)

Yeah, crip, ayy

She make it rain, activatea
