KAYTRANADA
The Backseat
[Verse 1: YOSHUA]
See, it's been a couple years since I have started on my journey
On the road, I been speeding, tryna get a bit like Jesus
But the temptations keep catching up to me
And my heart was racing sitting in the backseat
Like gosh, he hypocritical, a paradox, that Josh
I'm thinking 'bout the first time I scored in that box
I'm looking to the past through binoculars, I watch
The lil' me hitting, 8 PM on the watch
Then I pull out and I pull up to the driveway
I'm going crazy, then she tell me gotta talk
Oh my, one thing after another, that's all
This fall was the start of my fall
Like y'all ever faced a thing quite like this?
My miss told me aim high, shoot, and don't miss, don't quit
I stay hit with the 6 inch, got a full clip, it go brip, that's my--

[Verse 2: NAO]
You call me to tell me what's up with you, huh?
We're living on top of the world, it seems
Way up here in a higher place
What's our time? Are you coming over?

[Pre-Chorus: NAO]
Thinking I can hold onto, oh
Clouds that I keep falling through
[Chorus: NAO]
Just wanna get to know ya
Just wanna get to know ya
'Cause you don't even know me (just want to)
Just wanna get to know ya (just want to)

[Verse 3: YOSHUA]
Aye, ball so hard everybody wanna find me
And I parked so far that the 5-0 wanna fine me
Rip it up, both the parking ticket and this beat
KAYTRA-dee, Andy P, GoldLink, what I get it from
I'ma pass on the bounce to my little ones
I spit hard then I dip, call it hit and run
Josh Man, calm down, you be killing 'em
Tryna turn the negative into a plus sum

[Verse 4: NAO]
Like a fire, you're burning me up, oh
Take cover 'cause we're gonna float up
To this feeling of a higher place
It's our world
It's our world

[Pre-Chorus: NAO]
And maybe we can hold onto, oh
These clouds that I keep falling through
[Chorus: NAO + YOSHUA]
Just wanna get to know ya
How you doing lil' mami? Wanna take you to a party, yuh
Just wanna get to know ya
We could dance, you could put me in a trance, take a chance
'Cause you don't even know me (just want to)
Lemme get to know ya, baby lemme get to show ya something
Just wanna get to know ya (just want to)
1, 2, 3, 4, girl lock the door
Strike a pose, all of you, I feel it though

[Verse 5: YOSHUA]
When you finna come over? I gotta know
We could have a sleepover, emphasis on the "O"
I could show you good times baby, you just gotta trust
Netflix and chill, more like Netflix and lust, uh
What am I saying? I don't even know your name
And we just met early today, when I had got into your way
And you were carrying a plate full of asparagus and steak
I almost spilled drink on your face, I didn't know what to say
But then you said "It's okay, come and sit down with me
Don't wanna eat by myself, you could give me company"
I gave a laugh and said "Alright then, if you insist"
You giggled quick, swiped my drink, and then you took a sip
And uh, now I'm tryna slide in the sheets with ya
Tryna ride a couple waves so deep with ya
Only if you wanna, baby girl, you a stunner though
The Dalai Lama would be tempted as a mofo
[Outro: NAO]
Just wanna get to know ya
You don’t even know me
You don't even know me
