I won't waste your time
 By pretending I am something else
 You got eyes to see
 I live a modesty of someone else
 I'm reading your mind
 I know what you like
 I peeped into your fantasies

[Chorus:]
 It works every time
 I'm confident
 I can take you
 I can take you anytime
 I paralyze
 Body and soul are immobilize
 Honey if it's green
 Like a dollar bill
 Don't get caught up
 In a power of a win

 Earth is gonna shake
 Watch me elevate your expectations
 Oh why is this happening
 You'll be furthering your education
 I think it all out
 I know what to say
 To get you on my side

[Chorus:]
 Got a way of
 Got a way of
 Getting what I want
 Got a way of
 Got a way of
 Getting what I want
 Got a way of
 Got a way of
 Getting what I want
 Got a way of
 Got a way of
 Getting what I want

[Chorus:]
 Better watch your step
 I paralyze
 Body and soul are immobilize
 I can see you are a man
 Who'll never quit
 I'm so glad
 Cause I think
 I'm gonna like it
