Ari Lennox - Backwood Lyrics






Said papa gon' roll one for me
He gon' get me lit, he my everyday smoke
Baby let it fall right through me
Give me one more hit of that everyday nasty, so nasty
Light me up, till my problems straight past me
And baby let it fall right through me

I said me and my backwood
Ooh we be vibing so good
(Aha, aha, aha)
I roll he like sushi, such a beautiful tease
(Aha, aha, aha)
He gon' when I count to three

Said papa gon' get your money
I know they need a hit of that everyday smoke
I know you'll bring it right back to me
Just to get me lit
I can't take it no reckless, so reckless
Light me up like barbeque in Texas
Said baby let it fall right through me

I said me and my backwood
Ooh we be vibing so good
(Aha, aha, aha)
I roll he like sushi, such a beautiful tease
(Aha, aha, aha)
He gone when I count to three
I know you can't stay

Sweet bliss when I'm breathing you
I said I know you can't stay
Count to tres, we back to blue
You got me feeling some type of way
Tell me what is a girl to do till you back my way

  34. T.... ....

    I love this woman! Gawdamn! Thank you, Lord!

  35. A.... A....

    Backwood?!!🤤........ is that why she always pretends like she's smoking?

    A.... A....

    I think its because she dont smoke cigarretes... Like in "Whipped Cream", those were stressful moments when you would need a cigarette, but because she may not smoke...💋✌💨

    A.... A....

    Just a theory...

    A.... A....

    @Dyshell Kimble I don't think you understand what I meant.....A Backwood doesn't apply to cigarettes.... where I'm from, A Backwood is a wrap used for smoking blunts. Aaand I know she doesn't actually smoke now cause she's obviously pretending but maybe she does smoke weed every now and again but when she can't then she pretends.🤷‍♀️

  36. S.... B....

    Thank you 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

  50. K.... M....

    Backwood! Man I’m really diggin her fr

  51. Q.... M....

    Laying down chilling #ME&MYBACKWOOD

  52. Q.... M....

    Just discovered
    Love it! Agree 2019?

  53. B.... Z....

    Legendary shit. Jammed to this EP all 2017. Keep it up ari

  54. S.... ....

    I wish this song had no ending, like it just kept going

  55. R.... A....

    Someone please help me!! Whats the sample from?
    Driving me crazy..

    R.... A....

    Whole lot of love by heaven and earth

  56. d.... ....

    Already love this voice

  57. F.... 4....

    You have bars?

  58. F.... 4....

    Vibes just flowing. I fucking love your music

  59. G.... F....

    favorite song!

  60. g.... l....

    Much love Ari! Representing DC so gracefully. One of my favorites!

  61. M.... N....

    2019 and still top 3 of all Ari Lennox songs

  62. B.... R....

    I love this song who else will remember in 2019❤💖💗

  63. Z.... M....

    here in 2018. love u ari!

  64. A.... L....

    Grumble killed this shit

    A.... L....

    And to think Cole had to convince you to put it on PHO

  65. B.... P....

    Whoever did the beat didn't use that sample right smfh. Those horns at the end should have been throughout the track and Ari should have been blowing to it. Song would have been waaaay more dynamic.

    B.... P....

    Bria Philpot make a better beat then lol

    B.... P....

    Ari Lennox 😂idk if this is the real Ari Lennox but it's still priceless 👌🏾. If I did I would bc sometimes I hear dope breaks that could be used as samples (for example the baseline in Teddy Pendergrass Turn off the lights). I'll stick to writing and working on my mini series but as a fan I would love to hear the beat use the horns more and you ripping the shit up (if this is the real Ari Lennox).

  66. S.... H....

    I cant stop playing her music since seeing her live! What a beautiful problem to have! Love it!

  67. c.... l....
