[Intro]
I don't mean to call so much, but can you, please, pick up the phone or just give me a call back or text me back, just something? Okay, love you, bye

[Verse 1]
The world is so cruel, then I think about you
That’s why I can’t watch the news, can’t watch the news
Ain’t nothing new
Your head is always on a swivel
I like it better on my pillow
I like it better when you don’t go
Cause when you do, one thing's for sure
It’s like they’re always out to get ya
And the feds is out to hit ya
And the world is switching on you
Young black man doing all he can

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Therе’s no risk when you’re right herе in my hands, yeah
Real safe can we talk about our plans, yeah
Cause channel five got me going out my head, yeah
And when you leave I’m hanging on the ledge, yeah
And I can’t be without you
So just

[Chorus]
Lay, lay, lay
Cause you’re safe with me when I’m watching you sleep, so
Lay, lay, lay
Cause you’re safe with me when I’m watching you sleep
[Verse 2]
Oh, oh
I can’t apologize for being so overprotective of you
Cause they’ll be there to take you out for having some protection on you
Oh, oh
I hate to negative, but tell me what I’d do without you
I would be a fool without you, taking off my clothes to trap you
And you know that’s why you’re laughing

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But you’re in my hands, yeah
Real safe can we talk about our plans, yeah
And could you break it down so I can understand you
Maybe tomorrow I’ll be feeling so much better
But tonight just

[Chorus]
Lay, lay, lay
Cause you’re safe with me when I’m watching you sleep, so
Lay, lay, lay
Cause you’re safe with me when I’m watching you sleep

[Outro]
Baby, drive safely and text me when you get there
And touch me when you get back
If you don’t mind, don’t mind, don’t mind
Baby, go safely and I’ll be here waiting
Just keep me up to date if you’re running late
Yeah, that’s fine
