Megan Thee Stallion, “Cobra” Lyrics
through Genius
(B-B-Bankroll Obtained it)
Ayy
[Verse 1]
Breakin’ down and I had the entire world watchin’
However the worst half is admittedly who watched me
Each evening I cried, I nearly died
And no person shut tried to cease it
Lengthy as everyone gettin’ paid, proper?
Every part’ll be okay, proper?
I am winnin’, so no person trippin’
Guess if I ever fall off, everyone go missin’
At evening, I am sittin’ in a darkish room thinkin’
Most likely why I all the time find yourself drinkin’
Sure, I am very depressed
How can any individual so blessed wanna slit they wrist?
Shit, I would in all probability bleed out some Pinot
After they discover me, I am in Valentino, ayy
He pourin’ me photographs, thinkin’ it is lit
Hah, little did he know
[Chorus]
This pussy deprеssed, hmm, I am about to emphasize him, yeah
Pink nails ‘spherical his nеck, huh, however this ain’t home, ayy
Suppose it is goin’ down, hah, now he stand corrected, ayy
This pussy depressed, hmm, I am about to emphasize him, ah

By no means thought a bitch like me would ever hit all-time low
Man, I miss my mother and father, means too anxious, all the time cancel my plans
Pulled up, caught him cheatin’, gettin’ his dick sucked in the identical spot I am sleepin’
Lord, give me a break, I do not know the way way more of this shit I can take (Ayy)
How lengthy you been anxious ’bout me, tellin’ people who’s not me?
Actually, it kinda really feel such as you plottin’, watchin’
Why is you speakin’ on me at my lowest while you acted such as you ain’t seen?
I used to be trippin’, goin’ loopy
They usually lowkey hatin’, in order that they ain’t gon’ say shit
Rattling, I lastly see it
I am killin’ myself when bitches would die to be me
[Chorus]
This pussy depressed, hmm, I am about to emphasize him, yeah
Pink nails ‘spherical his neck, huh, however this ain’t home, ayy
Suppose it is goin’ down, hah, now he stand corrected, ayy
This pussy depressed, hmm, I am about to emphasize him, ah

Again exterior, yeah, again in movement, ayy
He hold callin’, hmm, I ignore it (Ayy)
He say I am loopy, hmm, do not I do know it, ah
