about

Original song: "Hotline Bling" by Drake.

lyrics

You used to call me on my…
you used to, you used to…

(Chorus)
You used to call me on my cell phone,
late night when you need lines up,
pull out all the shelf holds,
late night when you need lines up,
and I know when that hotline bling, (Crystal City)
that can only mean one thing.
I know when that hotline bling, (yeah)
that they need a new 13.

ever since I left the city YOU…
opened Crystal City for yourself now,
everybody goes and I feel left out,
dog, you got me dying, you got me stressed out,
cause ever since I left the city YOU…
started resting less and going out more,
climbing at the Stable on a V4,
hanging off some jugs I never seen before,

(You used to ca-ca-call -) I’m
balling (yep), balling (yep), balling on a budget (yep),
sports cars & caviar is never the discussion -
too many repercussions…society is judging,
but at least I’m not a normal person: living like a puppet,
every day trudging, that shit is so bizarre -
at the bar, I’m about to hit it hard like a bludgeon,
so when your stocks plummet, I’ll be living like a star,
I’m so far removed from it when I’m on top of a summit,
you niggas on Yelp talking shit about me,
y’all just mad you need help to climb a V3, I know you
niggas cannot stand me now, I’m bout to up the ante now,
swagger in my hand-me-downs, spitting game to Angie Brown,
couple shandies, now I’m picking out a chianti - I ain’t
usually up for saving, but I’ll be her vigilante - wow…
uncanny love for that Rock Candy -
that’s my modus operandi now…

(Chorus)

these days, all I do is
wonder if you giving up your passes to someone else,
wonder if you going back to Gretna with someone else,
going getting donuts in the district with someone else,
you don’t need no one else, you don’t need nobody else,
no - why we gotta go? Why we always touching road?
I used to always stay at home, be good - now I’m a rolling stone,
now, I just be myself, used to be someone else,


(Chorus)

ever since I left the city -
