Turnin Me Off

(Please, don't turn it off)

Aye

Teairra Marí (Te-Te, Te-Te)

You're turnin' me off, you're turnin' me off

You're turnin' me off, hey

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

Let me introduce myself to those that don't know me

And reintroduce myself to those that think they know me

The girl you first met, she was only fifteen

Stepped on the scene, lil' Roc-A-Fella queen

I disappeared, yeah, I got dropped from my deal

Now, I'm back on the block and my rock is for real

Let me take you back and tell you where I came from

(Detriot, Detriot) Where pistols and the pistons get it done

The sleek they call the music industry is so fake

And follow all these phonies, need to take a fast break

And you don't even know me, but your mouth is always poppin'

While me and my homie crew, they got some big ish poppin'

Y'all turnin' me off, you're turnin' me off

And when you make me turn it on, ain't no turnin' it off

And I ain't caught up in the vapers, all the gimmicks, and the capers

If it ain't about my paper, yeah (Wait a minute)

I'm a real ass bitch, I'm sick of all these critics in my business

While I'm tryin' make a living

I'm only twenty-one, cute chick, new shit, it's a given

And I praise so my haters are forgiven, so Lord

Let 'em talk about me, the comments, the chattin'

I heard 'em say I never sell a record (For real)

Like they said I'd never get another deal (For real)

And even though they see I'm for real, they steal

Wanna turn me down (Recognize a real woman)

But now it's going down, ey (Recognize a real woman)

I'ma be around for a damn long time

Stayin' in my lane cause it's mine, yeah

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

Now you wanna get real close to me

When just last year, you didn't notice me

Now, you recognize a real woman (Ha-ha)

Ayo, Te-Te

We ain't ballin' nobody

We just throwin' out motherfucking AP's in the sky

Niggas always gotta run they'll mouth, don't it

Hey, it's life

More to come suckers

More to come, '09

Yeah, we gettin' it nigga

In a recession

We gettin' it, say somethin' CJ

Say waddup

Nigga, it's CJ

Tell 'em we comin' for you, baby

We comin' for you, baby, aah

God bless and goodnight, suck this
