Up Late Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh, ooh, oh
Mmm
Ayy, yeah
[Verse 1]
On all night, quarter 5
I be insane if I let you hit
I need you, should be here
For my regretful morning
[Chorus]
Up late again
Head on my chest, hand on my ass
Up late again
Back it up on you, breathing fast
Oh, up late again, yeah
Tell me, how is it when I back it up there, it up there?
[Verse 2]
Make your way to North Hollywood
Target lingerie
Kissing your lips dipped in Backwood tips
I been crushing on you
We can fake-watch the news, if you like it
Oh, ooh, oh
Mmm
Ayy, yeah
[Verse 1]
On all night, quarter 5
I be insane if I let you hit
I need you, should be here
For my regretful morning
[Chorus]
Up late again
Head on my chest, hand on my ass
Up late again
Back it up on you, breathing fast
Oh, up late again, yeah
Tell me, how is it when I back it up there, it up there?
[Verse 2]
Make your way to North Hollywood
Target lingerie
Kissing your lips dipped in Backwood tips
I been crushing on you
We can fake-watch the news, if you like it
[Chorus]
Up late again
Head on my chest, hand on my ass
Up late again
Back it up on you, breathing fast
Up late again
Tell me, how is it when I back it up there, it up there?
[Verse 3]
How you gon' act?
Ooh, you fuckin' snack
Fifth floor, give your ass a duplicate fob, nigga
Fifth floor, devour that body like corn on a cob, nigga
Fifth floor, neighbors must be questionin' my job, nigga
I see that you torn, I see you adorn me
You know what I want
I see that you're torn
I see you adorn me
I see you adorn (Oh, adorn)
[Chorus]
Up late again
Head on my chest, hand on my ass
Up late again
Back it up on you, breathing fast
Oh, up late
How is it when I back it there, it there?
Up late again
Head on my chest, hand on my ass
Up late again
Back it up on you, breathing fast
Up late again
Tell me, how is it when I back it up there, it up there?
[Verse 3]
How you gon' act?
Ooh, you fuckin' snack
Fifth floor, give your ass a duplicate fob, nigga
Fifth floor, devour that body like corn on a cob, nigga
Fifth floor, neighbors must be questionin' my job, nigga
I see that you torn, I see you adorn me
You know what I want
I see that you're torn
I see you adorn me
I see you adorn (Oh, adorn)
[Chorus]
Up late again
Head on my chest, hand on my ass
Up late again
Back it up on you, breathing fast
Oh, up late
How is it when I back it there, it there?
[Outro]
Fifth floor, give your ass a duplicate fob, nigga
Fifth floor, devour that body like corn on a cob, nigga
Fifth floor, neighbors must be questionin' my job, nigga
5 a.m., could you stay a little longer?
Fifth floor, give your ass a duplicate fob, nigga
Fifth floor, devour that body like corn on a cob, nigga
Fifth floor, neighbors must be questionin' my job, nigga
5 a.m., could you stay a little longer?
