## Lyrics

**[Intro]**

(Stop playin' with 'em, RIOT)

**[Chorus]**

How can I lose if I'm already chose? Like

If she feelin' hot, then I make that bitch froze

And I get a bitch tight every time that I post, damn

The party not lit, then I'd rather not go (Why would I go?)

If she feelin' hot, then I make that bitch froze

And I get a bitch tight every time that I post, damn

**[Verse 1]**

Bitches down bad, they be on my ass

I can hear you hatin' from the back (The back)

Balenciaga baddie, got a bag (A bag)

N\*gga munchin', ate it from the back (The back)

N\*gga fiendin', gotta play it cool (Huh?)

Got the jatty, I'ma make it move (Goddamn)

Breakin' records and I'm breakin' news

Bitches be pressed, like, "Who you?" (Who you?)

I get whatever I like

Bitches won't bark, but they wanna bite (Grah)

And the body gon' eat, bon appétit

Ass on fat with the waist on sleek (Yeah)

Ginger hair, pretty, calm, beat

**[Chorus]**

How can I lose if I'm already chose? Like

If she feelin' hot, then I make that bitch froze

And I get a bitch tight every time that I post, damn

The party not lit, then I'd rather not go (Why would I go?)

If she feelin' hot, then I make that bitch froze

And I get a bitch tight every time that I post, damn

**[Verse 2]**

Look in the mirror, I'm feelin' me (Feelin' me)

Stackin' money where the ceilin' be (Ceilin' be)

Twenty to stand on a couch (Couch)

When out of town, fuck if they feelin' me (Feelin' me)

He like the way that I dress (Yes)

Throw on Balenci' to flex (Grrah)

So tell 'em to make room

Diamonds glisten on my boob (Boob)

**[Chorus]**

How can I lose if I'm already chose? Like

If she feelin' hot, then I make that bitch froze

And I get a bitch tight every time that I post, damn

The party not lit, then I'd rather not go (Why would I go?)

If she feelin' hot, then I make that bitch froze

And I get a bitch tight every time that I post, damn
