Dear friend and drummer Baron Harper called late one night "Come sing the hook of this song!". Hip hop? Me? You have to be kidding.
The Bridge was finishing this tune and had me come up with some chorus harmonies as well as a melody for the verse. Thanks Baron for pulling me in, Stefan for the sick beats, Hollywood for the raps, and MigMora for collaborating on the verse lyrics.
I see them looking all round the bar
Cause they wonderin' where I are
And I heard that the boy's a star
So they can take this home gain
i see these Rocktown boys tryin' to play they game and they ain't lame
but a woman like me gotta play safe save my frame say no names
And the night's getting late late late
but I'm in no hurry though
if they ain't gonna wait wait wait
then ill show them the door door door
