    Lyrics
    [Intro]
    Good evening ladies and gentlemen
    Would you gather 'round, please? Please, hurry up, thank you
    Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to disturb your dancin' and enjoyment
    But the reason for calling you this evening is-
    Good times, good times
    [Verse 1: billy woods]
    Dreams is dangerous, linger like angel dust
    Ain't no angels hovering, ain't no savin' us
    Ain't no slaving us, you gon' need a bigger boat
    You gon' need a smaller ocean but here's some more rope
    Barefoot in the bush burnin' dope, kush smoke out my big nosе
    My favorite game is "Let's Supposе," let's suppose
    I ask the question just to see it in your face
    I already know the answer never mattered
    Every night, he drink and piss up the mattress
    Kept turnin' it over and backwards 'til he threw it out
    Laid on the box-spring like a cactus, madness
    Some slowly go, some just vanish
    Don't make a promise you can't keep
    Don't make a keepsake out of grief
    I can't promise anything, it's pills to help you sleep
    It's ill but you're like krill in that cold deep
    Alcohol seep out the pores like gills
    Air squeeze out the ocean floor, Leviathan swim with open jaw
    Queen Naija 'Hate Our Love' Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified






    [Interlude: E L U C I D]
    As many times as you need
    Good times, good times
    [Verse 2: E L U C I D]
    You need permission to have an issue with me
    I'm not privy to the stories you live inside
    A home of alt history, I just bend the rhyme
    No mystery, God, deepest look inside
    Thick fog on the channel, rando pseudo Rambo, bad camo
    Armed to a T as in tango
    Letha Brainz Blo, baldhead in Kangol
    Televised game show, strange soul, royal scam
    I ate a rose in shavasana, hopped up, workin' on my posture
    I'ma slap box Judge Mathis and Judge Wapner
    Hot stuff, crock pot all rocked up, lock step
    E'rything for sale except for the scale, props bruv
    Eight arms at the last grab
    Put 'em on the glass, the number's fine but his math's bad
    Guns and butter for king crab
    Claws pinch at my skin tag, don't holla back, black
    Brass tax doubled for windbags
    Green grass and blue flower, seaweed snack from Okinawa
    4D facts, don't be a Weisenheimer

      Tango is a military slang word for Enemy or target , also meaning dance.
      Basically saying he's strapped and ready for the enemy and doesn't mind battling with them

    If you play this song on repeat as much as I have, you’ll notice that the jump-scare noise at the beginning masks the words “Fuck that shit.”
