Quotable Lyrics:
Give me a ring-ring, I’m on the way
Role out the ting, girl, I’m on the way
Just send the location over to me
‘Cause I got something to ease out the pain
You need some healing
Come get this love you’ve been missing tonight
I know the feeling
Point out, the one that you cut out your life
Who hurt you?
Who-hurt-you?
Who-hurt-you, baby?
Who-hurt-you?
(I’m)
I’mma pick up the broken pieces he left
Even though it wasn’t me, let me make up the sex, huh
Just send the location, I’ll do the rest, huh-uh
‘Causе I got something to ease out thе stress
