Quotable Lyrics

So many women that my new girl is old news
'Cause I need more than eye candy, I need soul food
Until then, I'm just slangin' it
I got your women upside down doin' stranger things
I see a lot of skeptics, lot of doubters, but I'm smart
I know that y'all are really just dreamers with broken hearts
