[Intro]
(ID)

[Chorus]
If I ain't on my grind, then I'm wastin' time
If I ain't collectin' mind, then I'm wastin' shine
I'm headed up above, leave the world behind
I ain't lookin' for love, I'm lookin' for more time

[Verse 1]
Girl, you know I'm tryna get you like you was a metaphor
Never felt like this before, you got to feel the higher toe
You know how I am, of course
You got my grind, got on, of course
First plans here, I wasn't sure, now I know you what I am lookin' for
Memorizes, gee, what passed?
Slow it down, don't go too fast
Wanna take this beauty that I'm seein', girl, and make it last
Act a fool to see you laugh
Lately supposed to watch that
You say you got a boyfriend, tell him, "Welcome to your past" (past)
We know a girl like you is hard to find
Like the fit is on my head, girl, you always on my mind
Take a jump into my world, you may like what you might find
'Cause when you always on the grind, every day is a surprise
Girl, give me a little time, then we will be livin' fine
Get us livin' in a world truly of another kind
No more life off of my minds
Formality far behind
That's the kind of life you live when you man is on the rise
[Chorus]
If I ain't on my grind, then I'm wastin' time
If I ain't collectin' mind, then I'm wastin' shine
I'm headed up above, leave the world behind
I ain't lookin' for love, I'm lookin' for more time

[Verse 2]
Girl, you can grant my wish, I see you sittin' over there
I'm about to go fish you, alone, playin' solitaire
I'm about to throw a hook, come on baby, don't be scared
If you lookin' for the one, take a chance, I'm right here
Teach you what a real man lock, I can give you a lesson
I ain't tryna to stress it, hope that you gettin' the message
We can get it and never know and go separate directions
"Whatever" is "never," but five minutes could last forever
Let's take this time together, see what destiny delivers
Yeah, baby, that's all I ask
That's all I ask
Knew I had to act fast or you'd be that girl
That I just, once upon a time, passed
This is crazy, and I know that you might laugh
But baby, you're a present, so fuck your past
'Cause if you're down to do a little more than chat
We could make "once upon a time" last

[Chorus]
If I ain't on my grind (if I ain't on my grind), then I'm wastin' time (wastin' time)
If I ain't collectin' mind (mind), then I'm wastin' shine
I'm headed up above (up above), leave the world behind
I ain't lookin' for love (love), I'm lookin' for more time
If I ain't on my grind (if I ain't on my grind), then I'm wastin' time (wastin' time)
If I ain't collectin' mind (mind), then I'm wastin' shine
I'm headed up above (up above), leave the world behind
I ain't lookin' for love (love), I'm lookin' for more time
