Wit’ Da Team Lyrics

[Refrain]
Say ya'll wanna roll in the scene
Ya'll wanna live in the dream
Ay-ya, ya'll never been with the team
Ay-ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya
Say ya'll wanna roll in the scene
Ya'll wanna live in the dream
Ay-ya, ya'll never been with the team
Ay-ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya

[Chorus]
Oh, you want it right now, you get it off of me
Know that it's hard not to notice me
Thinkin' you down, get it all for free
Only roll in if you with the team

[Verse 1]
Oh, what you gotta say? Oh yeah
Lip filler, booty shots, dark skin with the braids, oh yeah
Uh, uh, oh, I thought that that was ratchet
Thought that that was batshit
Beat 'em down and discredit the culture as that black shit
Pick it back up for yourself, see credits and detach it
Now you so intrigued and you wear it as the fashion, oh my God!

[Chorus]
Oh, you want it right now, you get it off of me
Know that it's hard not to notice me
Thinkin' you down, get it all for free
Only roll in if you with the team
[Refrain]
Say ya'll wanna roll in the scene
Ya'll wanna live in the dream
Ay-ya, ya'll never been with the team
Ay-ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya
Say ya'll wanna roll in the scene
Ya'll wanna live in the dream
Ay-ya, ya'll never been with the team
Ay-ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya

[Verse 2]
See, my nose is wide, my blood is honey and my
Dark skin is coated with the cocoa and the sun in the sky
So what they know, Mama? This is flesh is gold, Mama
Maybe that's why they wanna wear it with their clothes, Mama
Yeah, we were fruits from trees, now you watch us grow, yeah
And my grace is beamin' right up to my fro, yeah
All my people shinin' brighter, see we glow, yeah
And our voice is splattered on your radio, yeah

[Refrain]
Say ya'll wanna roll in the scene
Ya'll wanna live in the dream
Ay-ya, ya'll never been with the team
Ay-ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya
Say ya'll wanna roll in the scene
Ya'll wanna live in the dream
Ay-ya, ya'll never been with the team
Ay-ya, ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya
[Chorus]
Oh, you want it right now, you get it off of me
Know that it's hard not to notice me
Thinkin' you down, get it all for free
Only roll in if you with the team
Oh, you want it right now, you get it off of me (Off of me)
Know that it's hard not to notice me (Notice me)
Thinkin' you down, get it all for free (All for free)
Only roll in if you with the team

[Outro]
You only roll in, oh yeah
Say you only roll in, you only roll in

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Answer

I love working with Callum because that man knows how to bring the funk out of me. We’re gonna get some snacks, listen to some Prince, light up some incense and get these vocals popping
