Yeah (Whoop Whoop!)
Backup, behind the line you hear them,
them sirens gonna see them,
that heat they finally blasting
They playing with my heartbeat
My body grind you shattered
Now walk the line they firing
You hear them sirens (Whoop Whoop!)

Tell me how long before you drop the bomb
before you turn it up
turn it up
turn it up
turn it up [x2]
So tell me what you're waiting for (Whoop Whoop!),
Tell me what you're waiting for [x4]
One of those nights
you think your startin this war.
Your with your boys, you had some drinks,
your gonna to take this to far.
You in the way you gon get spaded
causality of this game.
I'm your alarm your time has come
and boy your love's just a thing.
Tell me how long before you drop the bomb
before you turn it up
turn it up
turn it up
turn it up [x2]
So tell me what you're waiting for (Whoop Whoop!
), tell me what you're waiting for [x4]
