LETRA
Retrograde
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah ('Cmon)
[Verse 1]
I'm still friends with your momma
You know I love her
Don't you go making it hard
When I'm coming over
She invite me to the cook
And you know I’m gonna go
If you don’t come with me, baby
Better be solo (yeah, yeah, yeah)
‘Cause I want all the smoke
Don’t provoke, let me flex
In my mind still together
We're not ex as of yet (yeah)
And I still love the sex (yeah)
It’s the best, I confess (yeah, ohh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Long time
I know it's been a long time (uhh uhh)
And I just can’t seem to get you off of my mind
I'm just tryna hold on, put us on a rewind
Can't see you with nobody else
You know you’re mine, mine, mine, mine
[Chorus]
Coming close (coming close)
Relocate (relocate)
Run that back (run that, run that)
Retrograde
You should be here
You’re out of place (where you at?)
Run that back (run that, run that)
Retrograde, retrograde, (retrograde) retrograde (ayy)
Run that back, run that back
Retrograde, (retrograde) retrograde, retrograde (retrograde)
You should be here
[Verse 2]
You still be getting jealous
Got me frontin'
Telling people I been trippin' over nothing
And you say I’m hella feisty, you likey
Ain’t no other bitch like me, wifey (ayy)
Down my spine
Boy I know you see the stars align
You should bring it back around one time
Oh, I can feel you rise in time (Come, come, come)
[Pre-Chorus]
Long time
I know it's been a long time
And I just can’t seem to get you off of my mind (ayy)
Just tryna hold on, put us on a rewind (ayy)
Can't see you with nobody else
You know you’re mine, mine, mine, mine
[Chorus]
Coming close (coming close)
Relocate (relocate)
Run that back (run that back)
Retrograde (where you at?)
You should be here
You’re out of place (where you at?)
Run that back (run that back)
Retrograde, (let's go) retrograde, (retrograde) retrograde (retrograde)
Run that back, run that back
Retrograde, (retrograde) retrograde, (retrograde) retrograde
You should be here
[Bridge]
Run that back, run that back, run that back for me
Run that back, run that back, run that back for me
Run that back, run that back, run that back for me
Run that back, run that back, run that back for me
(You feel me, I'm just tryna word around that thing, you feel me?
I, I know a star when I see one, baby, and you shinin', you feel me?
If I could rearrange the alphabet, you know what I'm sayin'
It would just be S-T-A-R)
[Pre-Chorus]
Long time
I know it's been a long time
And I just can’t seem to get you off of my mind
I'm just tryna hold on, put us on a rewind
Can't see you with nobody else
You know you’re mine, mine, mine, mine
Long time
I know it's been a long time
We've been playing with these feelings
They on standby
And I won't lie
You know that I won't lie
Can't see you with nobody else
You know you’re mine, mine, mine, mine
[Chorus]
Coming close (coming)
Relocate (where you at?)
Run that back (run that back)
Retrograde (running)
You should be here
You’re out of place (yeah)
Run that back (run that, run that)
Retrograde, (come on) retrograde, (retrograde) retrograde (retrograde)
Run that back, run that back
Retrograde, (you got it) retrograde, (run that back) retrograde (you got it)
You should be here
