Content
This song uses a lot of sexual content. The clean version uses "don't play with me" as part of the chorus, as opposed to "gon' play wit it" and "work them hips" instead of "work that clit". Also, the clean version uses "run" instead of "cum". In almost every other line of the song, Banner alternates between whispering and rapping.
