Change Ya Life Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
Make sure that you eat good
Put your ass to bed
And make sure that you sleep good
I just want to please you
Make it so you never ever wanna let me go
You can’t deny
You see that flame?
Didn’t mama say don’t play with fire?
I’mma teach you how to to treat me like I deserve
I’ll give you the world

[Chorus:]
I can be all you need and more
(Standing on the outside
All I need is one time)
Heaven is knocking on your door
(Just let me prove it)
And if it’s true what they say about the good good love
Baby, you’re in trouble
And it feels like, oooh…
I could fuck around and change your life

[Verse 2:]
I’ll make it my mission
I’mma get you there
Just make sure you can keep up
I don’t need no reason
Say you want it now
Don’t be scared, you can speak up
You can’t deny
You feel that burn?
Didn’t mama say don’t play with fire?
I’mma teach you how to to treat me like I deserve
I’ll give you the world
[Chorus] (2x)

Change your life
