tobi lou – Orange lyrics
[Intro]
I've been cuttin' up tryna get at you (tryna get at you)
Diving in the cup like a swimming pool (like a swimming pool)
Yeah (ooh)
[Verse]
Why'd I stop rocking flannels? (flannels)
I still wear socks with sandals (sandals)
I'm from the Chi like Chano (Chano)
My favorite color Channel, Orange (Orange)
I still watch cartoon channels (channels)
My favorite shows got cancelled (damn)
So shout out to those assholes (right)
I really want to travel (wooh)
Window seat first class though (yeah)
Lean my seat so far back niggas think I'm Fat Joe (yeah)
Shoulder lean like Fat Joe (yeah)
Shoulder lean like Uzi
We flipped That 70's Show now these bitches think I'm groovy
But I'm ok with that though (ok)
I'm looped up like a lasso (ok)
I'm happy yeah, but most these days I be extra sad though
Gotta be extra careful
Like birds around scarecrows
Not to let the sadness take advantage of my fragile (stay)
I feel so insubstantial (yeah)
But I'm more than a handful (ooh-ooh)
Do you know who I am, ho?
I started from the gravel
And I made it here (Yeah), yeah, I made it here (Yeah)
Now let me make it clear
I ain't goin' nowhere (no)
Bitch I'm from Chicago
I like Giordano's
I'm in love with deep dish
She love all my deep shit (All of it)
But she extra shallow
Mafia like 3-6
All my shit is decent
I just got into fashion
I used to hate that shit
But now I'm feelin' like, I was fuckin' made for this
All these niggas came and went
All these fuckin' tailored fits
I should be in Taylor Gang
But because you're OJ
'Cause my favorite color Channel, Orange
But nothin' rhymes with orange
[Interlude]
Hey are we still recording?
We were recording just then?
Ha-ha
[Chorus]
I know it's all love, but don't step on my tennis shoes (tennis shoes)
I been cuttin' up tryna get at you (get at you)
Diving in this cup like a swimming pool (swimming pool)
I couldn't stop it even if I wanted to (if I wanted to)
I know it's all love, but don't step on my tennis shoes
I been cuttin' up, you ain't seen the moves
Diving in this cup like a swimming pool
I couldn't stop it even if I wanted to
[Bridge]
Yeah, hm
I could't stop it, couldn't stop
I couldn't stop it, make it stop
Just make it stop, make it stop
[Outro]
I wonder if society still thinks I'm a menace
Black and beautiful, hello world, I'm the business
Stepped in this bitch and I swear I ascended
I know its all love, but don't step on my tennis
I wonder if society still thinks I'm a menace
Black and beautiful, hello world, I'm the business
Stepped in this bitch and I swear I ascended
I know its all love, but don't step on my tennis
Yeah, that's it
I've been cuttin' up tryna get at you (tryna get at you)
Diving in the cup like a swimming pool (like a swimming pool)
Yeah (ooh)
[Verse]
