PROMISE
Lyrics written by: Khadijah Lopez & Sheldon Sabastian

Verse 1
Promise is a promise and I promise I will always lift you up,
Always hold you down
(Down)
They think I’m naive about the reason I believe you’re keeping me around
(Round)
Funny how they never thought that I could be the one who runs the game,
Pin it all on you
That’s the reason why we make the perfect team

Hook
Oh we get away with shit like,
Where’s your evidence?
Alibi like,
She’s to elegant.
Keep your thought like,
Put a pin in it.
I don’t think they’ll catch us.
Excuse me sir,
Like is that relevant?
Where’s my call?
This feels prohibited.
Why don’t you just stick a pin in it
I don’t think they’ll catch us

Sheldon Verse
I can make you promises, I can make your situation better than the timing is.
Put you back together beautifully, you know like rhyming is. You shine in any weather, boo. Kinda like a diamond is. Don’t care if they think different. Commitment never been a thing that’s missing. You know what’s really real when I be tripping. If you ever get caught up and I was on the stand. Right hand, I’ll say whatever, get you out that jam. Ain’t nothing different. Do the best for me, the best for you when I do business. You always know what line is next, they think the love is scripted. They say it’s lonely at the top, I’m here and it’s so different. They call me mister at the bank, and I call you my misses. Yeuh. Oscar Robertson the way I dish it. Steph curry baby how you swish it. Perfect team shit you know it’s prominent. I’m keeping you around, you know exactly what a promise is, it’s you.

Verse 2
It’s you.
Promise is a promise and I promise that the book is squeaky clean.
Nothing in our way
(Way)
I just worked some numbers, read some rules and paid attention making sense of all the taxes that we pay
Now you got to meet me at the spot
Throw away your burner
Change your number
Get the bag that we packed the other day…

Hook
Oh we get a way with shit like,
Where’s your evidence?
Alibi like,
She’s to elegant.
Keep your thought like,
Put a pin in it.
I don’t think they’ll catch us.
Excuse me sir,
Like is that relevant?
Where’s my call?
This feels prohibited.
Why don’t you just stick a pin in it
I don’t think they’ll catch us
