lyrics

If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free

Prices
Can't put a price on it
On life, I put my life on it
Might be the death of me
Definitely
Took the breath from me
When I laid eyes on you
You looked like Destiny's Child
Not Beyoncé Solange
The type of time I be on
Girl take that jersey off
And stop all that playing
Just let me build with you
See girl I'm good with my hands
I heard god is a woman
That's why they market to men
Read between the barcode lines and underscan
It's all a part of the plan

Yeah yeah
If I could buy you the world
Would you buy all my bullshit?
Masquerades and emotions
Accolades and promotions
Cuz I stand by my high hopes on tight ropes
With this dope shit
Holding onto these moments
Cuz without these I'm just coping
I'm on DOUG shit
Five guys in the club shit
Sipping mai tai's in our underwear
Could be mortified but we undercare
I'm not making assumptions
I'm just trying to cut through the air
Truth is sacred, yeah something scarce
You were something
I hope you shared, hope you shared

If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free

Spann
The man who sold the world stole the deed from me
If I bought you the moon would your reflection flee?
Or would you try to see?
This section birthed me
A ronin roaming like the waves
Drown me out or try to touch me
I'll pop your bubble abruptly
I'm phenomenal
Even when my blunts canoe they're nautical
Stuffing rap nerds into Davy Jones' locker
Putting dreadlocks on my dreadnought
Lonely Island but it's tropical
Highly probable that the DOUG is unstoppable

If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free
If I could buy you the world you'd probably give it away for free

Thinking about my thinking
Way too sad, it's way too anxious
Cannot move, cannot sit
Cannot sleep feeling restless
I think about a god and if it's made in my reflection
Is it me inside this mirror
That's divine or intervention?
I'm relatively famous like a theory more than science
I've been losing my religion
But I'm working on my spirit
These serpents are my spirit
All these evils I don't hear it
All these evils I don't see it
All these evils I don't speak it

Ay, ay
I don't got money I don't got cash for you
All I got is my word I hope it lasts for you
I'd give my last to you
I even put it in a bag for you
Feeling me up just like a draft would do
Girl I might open up a tab for you
Girl I might put it in the bag for you
Girl I might come in I could ask for you

Forever see me soaring in the sky
No passport
She the only woman I would ever take a pass for
She is me and I am her
But that's not what we asked for
I think that we all the same
And she thinks that it's past four
She the type of lady I would probably go to mass for
I'd take off my mask for her
I would go to class for her
She would pass me for a buddy
But I'm douggie task force
Holding up the world on my shoulders
can you ask more?

Colonizers ruin everything around me
So the cream is topical
I know I said my island's tropical
But south of the equator's out of my hood equation
See, quitting is inequitable
I'm equipped with quintessential wisdom, stories, and quips
Bury me in crypts next to the reformed crips nigga
I bled for this
Heart of the matter is the tip of the iceberg
And the spirit
Gouge your heart out if you think we lacking heart
Over here

All that I want is you
What's a DOUG supposed to do?
I guess I'm just hoping
Hoping
Hoping
Hoping

All that I want is you
What's a DOUG supposed to do?
I guess I'm just hoping
Hoping
Hoping
Hoping
