August Alsina – Rules

I got a question
Do you mind if I approach you?
And if I’m wrong, I’m gone
But you look like who I belong to

You remind me of my jit
My TLC, that’s crib
The match, ka-boom, like me
Be the vocal to my beat

Normally, this ain’t somethin’ I try to do
I see somethin’ different in you
Tryna catch a vibe with you
Pick a destination
Tryna find somewhere to fly with you
Maybe it can grow to somethin’
Once I plant a seed or two

Ooh-ooh
Girl, be the garden to my flower
Drippin’, drench me good
I love how them tulips make me sprout up
You tryna be my homie-lover-partner
She said, “we turn the B-E-D into Paris, if I fell on your tower”

Now, let’s take it up a notch
Maybe it don’t have to be so lonely at the top
Maybe we can drive a couple foreigns off the lot (Skrrrt)
You ain’t gotta change for me, girl, just be who you are

Hope you understand I’m not just anybody
This ain’t nothin’ new to me
I’ve been about it
Hope you don’t try to play me for a fool, yeah
‘Cause girl you got me breakin’ all my rules
Can’t believe you got me breakin’ all my rules

I live by the corner, and I die by the code
You might be the exception, girl
‘Cause you know you cold (Damn, you cold)
You remind me of my pick, I’d love to kick it with you
You’re the canvas to my brush
We paint a different picture

Usually, I try to play it cool
I can see the difference since I’ve been building with you
Let’s take a vacation
Know the perfect place to fly us to
Maybe it can grow to somethin’
Once I plant a seed or two

Girl, be the garden to my flower
Drippin’, drench me good
I love how them tulips make me sprout up
You tryna be my homie-lover-partner
She said, “we turn the B-E-D into Paris, if I fell on your tower”

Now, let’s take it up a notch
Maybe it don’t have to be so lonely at the top
Maybe we can drive a couple foreigns off the lot (Skrrrt)
You ain’t gotta change for me, girl, just be who you are
Hope you understand I’m not just anybody
This ain’t nothin’ new to me (I’m not just anybody)
I’ve been about it
Hope you don’t try to play me for a fool
‘Cause girl you got me breakin’ all my rules
Can’t believe you got me breakin’ all my rules

Hope you understand I’m not just anybody
I’m not just anybody
This ain’t nothin’ new to me, I’ve been about it
Know I’ve been about it
Can’t believe you got me breakin’ all my rules
