Leopard skin and a cocktail honey, lined with your cocaine

Might run in your circles, put on silk, not weight

You know I see right through the glass, but I've learned how to look away
Despite seeing the truth ("seeing right through the glass"), choosing to ignore or avoid it to cope ("learned how to look away").
So pick me up babe with that limousine running

Pop champagne make it rain that money

A fabulous escape from all the hero talk

Well I aint talked to her in months, I guess she caught your eye
