Cam Meekins – I Promise lyrics

Yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, (Lamp city!) yeah, yeah
So many "Yeah's", man
Lamp city! (Yo,)

[Verse 1: Cam Meekins]

Let me start off by telling you a story
Of how I met this girl on a snowy winter morning
Up in the Science class, and her smile was adoring
But when I went to hit her up she pretty much ignored me

Now I know I ain't the coolest cat with it
But I never go to class, girl, except when you in it
And I got the seven digits if you'd just give me a minute
She just turned around and smiled and she dissected a pigeon, but

But I'm never ever ever gonna forfeit
No I don't play football, that ain't important
I know you ain't that boring, come on
With an ass all the guys stare at trynna to see the thong

They never get it, but girl I'm never quittin
And I'm gonna be a star, so that life, you can live it
And I'm thinkin bout you walking through the lunch line
You gettin a salad, I'm sitting at the table cause I'm done with mine

There ain't enough lines to tell you how I feel
But the truth's what I speak cause the truth's what's real
And I all I think about is how to make you notice
And I'm sure there is a way but I don't know it

[Chorus: Cam Meekins]

She only see me when I'm riding around, puttin it down
She don't wanna talk if I'm laying around
But I promise, I'mma do whatever it takes to get her
To get her

She don't see that I just drive around with the music loud
Hoping one day I can take her around
And I promise, I'mma do whatever it takes to get her
To get her

[Verse 2: Cam Meekins]

So I decided to go up to her (What up?)
Nervous as I'm walking through the library stuck to her
My eyes very cluttered with her giving me that sex look
Take a seat, awkwardly pull out my math textbook

Yo, girl I ain't tryna solve equations
But me plus you equal a date next weekend
And I, know, man I ain't got a date to prom
So come on, don't this fitted cap kind of turn you on?

And I kinda need an answer cause I think about you all the time
The situation running over, over in my mind
It's fine, but could you tell me, Are you with me?
I know I ain't the best, but my mom's thinks I'm pretty

And I know you always hear about the kid who's got big dreams
But for the rapping shit I even quit the fucking team
So you can tell that I'm a passionate guy
In the friendzone is where I would usually lie (Yup.)

What if I was the cool kid, the athlete
Musician, magician, the stoner, maybe the rap king
It doesn't matter what I finally came to see
Everything that I was doing, I just wasn't doing me

[Chorus: Cam Meekins]

She only see me when I'm riding around, puttin it down
She don't wanna talk if I'm laying around
But I promise, I'mma do whatever it takes to get her (Lamp city!)
To get her (Lamp city!)

She don't see that I just drive around with the music loud
Hoping one day I can take her around
And I promise, I'mma do whatever it takes to get her (Yeah!)
To get her

[Bridge: Cam Meekins]

She only see me when I'm riding around, puttin it down
She don't wanna talk if I'm laying around
I promise, Do whatever it takes to get you
Yeah

She don't see that I just drive around with the music loud
Hoping one day I can take her around
But I promise, Do whatever it takes to get you
Get you, yeah

I promise I'mma do whatever
It's gonna work out
One day
Yeah!
We got it
