[Intro]
Ayy, umm, so I was kickin these Red Hot's and
I ain't know we had some white bread
I kinda... I kinda ran out
Yeah, oh you watching the game?
Who's playin? Nah-nah
I don't watch like I used to since Kobe retired
But I mean, you want some company
If it's cool, I can watch it with you
I know ball, now! Haha, man you crazy
I mean, can I come in? I mean, is that cool?
...Yeah?

[Rapsody]
"Love thy neighbor," the Bible say
Watchin from my window, me and homies all congregate
Good Lord you fine, that's all I'ma say
Son got my head wrapped up like momma Sway, or momma Tate
Come hug my neck, namaste
Wit all due respect, +Seven+ sons/suns like +André+
We should spend a whole week together to conversate
Just knock on my door, baby boy, I'll accommodate
I could use some good company like I'm good on my taxes
I ain't tryna be a senior, just earnin my bachelors
Ay, I could tell you I don't need too much practice
My heart ain't hard to open, it ain't wrapped in no plastic
I know you out here like rappers tryna make good on yo' money
Either way, one day you gonna have to count on black woman
So if you choose to come by, I won't leave you outside
Just knock on my door like a couple of times and baby we can just...

[Chorus: BJ the Chicago Kid]
Knock on, knock on, knock on, knock on my door
Knock on my door sometimes
WHOOOO! (Woooooooooooooo)
Knock on my door sometimes
(Woooooooooooooo)
Knock on my door sometimes

[Rapsody over Chorus]
Mmm-mmm-mmm, Lord...
Jehovah, if I ever get him in my place
Ah, you gotta give me strength...
Aww, I'm tryin not to sin...
See now I gotta start my prayer all over again
Can't be praying, Marlena... Can't be praying and having these sudden thoughts
It's disrespectful but my LORD~!

[Rapsody]
Every woman needs some affection
Need to be kissed, hugged, told she's loved, it cures depression
I talkin bout you, most nights I lay around restless
I only get by day to day by counting my blessing
Tryna get your attention, hope see me in these leggings
Know I was raised better, what you fish's what you catch
I got better bait, that ain't for debate
I'm still proud of my cake, I got cake-cake
Apple Bottoms lookin for a snake
Know I'ma sin if you ever come up in my place
You my first place, all these others-others they can wait
I know a winner when I see him, if you ever round my way
Knock on my door and we can chill and talk about your day
That ain't nothing to do, single woman home alone
All that's missing is you, we ain't got a curfew, we grown
So what's taking you so long?
Come around my way and maybe we can play if you...

[Chorus]

[Rapsody over Chorus]
My God, he's so fine, so fine...
And I'm so lonely, hahaha!
I'm so lonely... and God, you know I like 'em tall
And lanky... and his swag - ahh!

[Rapsody]
Welcome, glad you came over
Come in, you can have a seat on the sofa
You thirsty? I got tea and soda
And water out the faucet
Oh I was just watchin Ali, I paused it
Damn, it really hurt we lost him
Oh, you Muslim too? I think that's awesome
No, I don't discriminate, we all pray often
I'm surprised you ain't out chillin witcha homies
Yeah, they crazy but I like 'em, tho
They always jokin when I pull up to my building do’
Yeah, I been single for a moment, yo
What you meaaan?? You know how it go
I could say the same thing about you
Quit playin, nigga, you know you cute!
Hahahaha! That’s the truth
Right, right - "Gimme the loot!"
Yeah, I dig your style
I hope you got the time that you could stay awhile
Why? I like yo' company
Heh, and I'm really drawn to your smile
Hah, ol' pretty-ass teeth
So, what you doin this week?
Well, if you maybe got the time
I think that you should slide over to my place just to speak and...

[Outro]
Stoooop! Oh my...
All you gotta do is just come by and gimme one of {*knocking*}
Just one of those, haha, just check on a baby girl
You know... I don't think I look that bad
I know he see me, ugh! I mean, I dressed up to make sure he see me
He gotta see me, right? {*fades*}
