Walking through the fire, please don't let me go Take me to the river, I need you to know I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out Hot in the kitchen like a thousand degrees That's how I'm feeling when you're next to me I got a fever, tell me, what did you do? Temperature rising when I look at you, look at you Subliminal, sex Drippin' in, sweat I'm losing my, breath Look what I've, found It's about to go, down I want it right, now Walking through the fire, please don't let me go Take me to the river, I need you to know I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I got the matches, you got the gasoline Light up the floor like it's Billie Jean The way we're movin' by the end of the song They're gonna have to pull the fire, fire alarm Subliminal, sex Drippin' in, sweat I'm losing my, breath Look what I've, found It's about to go, down I want it right, now Walking through the fire, please don't let me go Take me to the river, I need you to know 2 Chainz! Everything hot like it's fresh off the grill Million dollar grill look fresh on the hill Plus I'm 6'5", she need to step in some heels Before you step up in here you need to step up your gear Wish a Lamborghini had four doors From the corner store to the corridor Me and my homie on the damn floor White girl in the middle, looking like an Oreo (I'm burnin' up) Roof on fire, we can burn up Turn up for what nigga turn up Mother fucker must ain't learned Back in the day used to down with a burn coat (I'm burnin' up) Light got the Lord on the top floor In a Ford, wearin' Tom Ford Walk in the club and her ass start clappin' Tell shawty I want a encore Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out I'm burnin' up Come put me out Come and put me out
