Yeah, so I had a really good first date with you and all (I felt that too, aha)

Chorus
What's yo zodiac sign?

Because you looking divine, do you wanna be mine?

Verse 2
She got me slipping and sliding; she hold while she riding
She closing her eyelids; she feel alright
Just so you know, I'm a Leo; I'm worth like two people
That makes us a trio, I deal, aight?
In this verse, Khalil gets a bit more intimate, discussing physical closeness and connection. The imagery of slipping and sliding suggests a playful and carefree vibe.

Tell me your sign, and I'm thraxin'
Zodiac killer on top of the fractions
Vicky love me, so I won't ever pass it

But I, I just checked Twitter, and your birthday is in August? (No, no, she's one of those)
Like, you're a Leo? As a Pisces I-um (Dior, Dior, Dior)
What's yo zodiac sign?
Do you think I am fine? Am I wasting your time? Wait
Because you looking divine, do you wanna be mine?
No, I see it is fine, okay
She got me slipping and sliding; she hold while she riding
She closing her eyelids; she feel alright
Just so you know, I'm a Leo; I'm worth like two people
That makes us a trio, I deal, aight?
What are you doing, Montie?
I'm breaking bread like a Pisces
Catch me emotional; that's highly unlikely
And I can't have no outburst; she thinks of me highly
Split personality just like she's Miley
But her name Riley
My life been a movie just like I'm Leo
No, it ain't prom night; I'm dancing like Rio; hit it
She claim that she love when I dance around her
But her feelings dance around me
Two face lil' baby, you're the fourth OG
And yes, I'm a Leo, don't talk about me
Yeah, yeah, I'll slide you my birth chart, anyway
Do you still wanna go out with me?
Salmon and trout on the plate, scarf it down with me
I make her whole, but she only took half of me
People be slacking; I'm never lacking
I'm on a quest, and I'm not talking dragon
No, I'm not Toothless
Got in the car, and she gave me her two lips
Asked what she smell like, I'm telling her tulips
But I'm still a zodiac killer
I take her soul with a bag and a zipper
I'm a Leo who eat Pisces for dinner
What's yo zodiac sign?
Do you think I am fine? Am I wasting your time? Wait
Because you looking divine, do you wanna be mine?
No, I see it is fine, okay
She got me slipping and sliding; she hold while she riding
She closing her eyelids; she feel alright
Just so you know, I'm a Leo; I'm worth like two people
That makes us a trio, I deal, aight?
Tell me your sign, and I'm thraxin'
Zodiac killer on top of the fractions
Vicky love me, so I won't ever pass it
Go back to back on these songs like I'm crackin' it
Born as a Leo and Scorpio, half of it
She say that she's want me 'cause I know my zodiac
Found out she's a Gemini now I am over that (Go)
But I'm still a zodiac killer
I take her soul with a bag and a zipper
I'm a Leo who eat Pisces for dinner
