Lyrics
[Intro]
T-T-Tay Keith, Took it to ten (Hey)
[Chorus]
Ayy, it's a holiday
I got hoes on hoes and they out of control, yeah
Ayy, this another one
All my ni**as on go and I hope that you know it
I can't even close my eyes
And I don't know why, guess I don't like surprises
I can't even stay away from the game that I play
They gon' know us today, yeah
[Verse 1]
Ayy, can I pop shit? (Pop, pop, pop)
I might bottom on the low, but I top shit (But I top shit)
Switch the genre on you hoes, do a rock hit (Mmm)
I got the biggest damn song, fuck the charts, sis, I don't need 'em
[Pre-Chorus]
They wanna know if I'll be lastin'
Bitch, even if I started floppin', there'd be fashion
Poppin' up in movies, ain't no Nasy, bitch, it's Ashton
Hee, hee, I'm bad as Michael Jackson
Dun, dun, dun
[Chorus]
Ayy, it's a holiday
I got hoes on hoes and they out of control, yeah
Ayy, this another one
All my ni**as on go and I hope that you know it
I can't even close my eyes
And I don't know why, guess I don't like surprises
I can't even stay away from the game that I play
They gon' know us today, yeah
[Verse 2]
Man, I snuck into the game, came in on a horse
I pulled a gimmick, I admit it, I got no remorse
Nobody tried to let me in, nobody opened doors
I kicked them motherfuckers down, they didn't have a choice
Dun, dun, dun
They tried to next me, ayy, but I'm blessed, see
Ayy, no flex, but my checks givin' vet tease
Ayy, and I'm sexy, they wanna sex me
Pop star, but the rappers still respect me
[Pre-Chorus]
They wanna know if I'll be lastin'
Bitch, even if I started floppin', there'd be fashion
Poppin' up in movies, ain't no Nasy, bitch, it's Ashton
Hee, hee, I'm bad as Michael Jackson
Dun, dun, dun
[Chorus]
Ayy, it's a holiday
I got hoes on hoes and they out of control, yeah
Ayy, this another one
All my ni**as on go and I hope that you know it
I can't even close my eyes
And I don't know why, guess I don't like surprises
I can't even stay away from the game that I play
They gon' know us today, yeah
[Outro]
Tay Keith, fuck these ni**as up
Daytrip took it to ten (Hey)
