Wasting Time Lyrics
[Verse 1: Brent Faiyaz]
You can't even sit in peace
'Cause all of these n!ggas be on you
I'm just saying I can be (Yeah)
The one that you call and you talk to, girl
I'll share my world with you
[Pre-Chorus: Brent Faiyaz]
If you're gonna waste your time (Yeah)
Then waste your time with me
I mean, honestly
Open your eyes and see
Who's giving you what you need?
[Chorus: Brent Faiyaz]
If you're gonna waste your time
Then waste your time with me
You can have all the space
More than you need
It's no pressure, girl
If you got time to waste (Waste)
Waste it with me
[Verse 2: Brent Faiyaz]
And I ain't worried 'bout them (Oh)
Girl, you all that I see (All that I see)
And I am who I am (Oh)
And I be where I be (Where I be)
If you ever hit me on the late night (Yeah)
I'll give you a clear mind
Might give you some insight
[Pre-Chorus: Brent Faiyaz]
I'll share my world with you
If you're gonna waste your time (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Then waste your time with me
I mean, honestly
Open your eyes and see
Who's giving you what you need?
[Chorus: Brent Faiyaz]
If you're gonna waste your time
Then waste your time with me
You can have all the space
More than you need
It's no pressure, girl
If you got time to waste (Waste)
Waste it with me
[Verse 3: Brent Faiyaz]
Don't close your eyes to get away (Oh)
Just bang my line and I'll arrange it (Oh)
Beautiful, girl, you're stainless
You'll be fine, I'll be painless, yeah
All I'm drinking is champagne
Oh, you wanted the same thing
[Verse 4: Drake]
Yeah
The Ten Thousand Building, get your as* an apartment
Put you inside a G-Class, that's just a starter kit
Plenty things count in life, but none of them is a thought of it
New piece around my neck, it's chess games
'Cause shorty stay with calculated moves, like Beth Harmon
Swear I'm more "Purple Rain" Prince than Prince Charming
Disappointment, I stay expecting it, the pessimist gold medalist
Flushed the Magnums just so they not collecting my specimens, damn (Damn)
The way she with papi, man, you would think she's a veteran on remembrance
Cleaning lady sweep the room daily for all the evidence
Of everything I ever did (I ever did)
Do they have a pool there? Do they have a gym there?
You used to do skincare, but now you do swimwear
Your ex-roommate got a condo that's downtown
But she got no furniture in the crib, I've been there (Been there)
Checkmate, even though you hate that I even check her
I'll still get an E for effort
Only time I play the back and forth is Aaliyah record
If I let you talk first, then nobody is speaking second
Fluent in passive aggression, that's why you acting dismissive
Hearing me out for once would require you actually listen, damn (Damn)
The boy is back, I never turned my back
I just lapped 'em, so now all that they see is my back
Say that then, Maybach Benz with me in the back
When I was in Acura, still couldn't clean up my act
Whenever I tell the truth, you feel like you being attacked
But that come with being attached, so how 'bout we leave it at that? (Leave it at that)
[Chorus: Brent Faiyaz]
If you're gonna waste your time
Then waste your time with me
You can have all the space
More than you need
It's no pressure, girl
If you got time to waste (Waste)
Waste it with me
