[Intro]
(To stay— To stay for a while!)
By the way
(Lemme get a sip of water)
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
By the way
I've never let these thoughts see the light of day
Please don’t run away
Wherever you are, feelin' out of place
Think I'd rather stay

[Chorus]
I wanna stay for a while
I wanna move your way, know the roof might cave in
All of these snakes in the wild
I’m 'boutta lose my brain, tell me, who gon' save me? (Save me)

[Bridge]
And if I place my bets on you tonight
Don't let me down, I won't survive
You gave me a preview
And now, I could never leave you

[Verse 2]
7-7-7, broken wings give me better luck (Leave you)
I need many things, grip the hell out of these Benjamins
Starin' in the eyes of a beast, probably venomous
Why she give it up to me? You're so generous
Yeah, we've seen the fangs, but that don’t threaten us (Threaten us)
True reptilian, I know a plethora
While you were countin’ sheep, I saw it measure up
Overnight, spending time with somebody I don't know
[Chorus]
I wanna stay for a while
I wanna move your way, know the roof might cave in
All of these snakes in the wild
I’m 'boutta lose my brain, tell me, who gon' save me? (Yeah)

[Verse 3]
One look can illuminate me
More fire, how you doin' lately? (Oh, yeah)
They can try to tear you down
But nobody dare to

[Bridge]
I don’t know where I reside (Reside), bit by (Bit by)
These fangs, and now I'm tagging along
Even give me feedback, singing to these songs
You're the only reason, this where I belong

[Chorus]
I wanna stay for a while
I wanna move your way, know the roof might cave in (Cave in)
All of these snakes in the wild
I'm 'boutta to lose my brain, tell me, who gon' save me?

[Outro]
By the way
I've never let these thoughts see the light of day
