He ain't fly, no (What? He ain't fly)

And won't leave me alone (Yeah, yeah, go)
He ain't even fly though (He ain't fly)
You ain't gotta lie, no (No, don't lie)
That's why you're callin' my phone

Your nigga, he so bummy, need to boost his self-esteem (Oh, what we say?)

[Verse 3: Wiz Khalifa]
Uh, you say you want a fly nigga
Roll somethin' and get high, nigga

I'm spendin' all the moss
And if he ain't comin' close, it's time that you tell him bye
I'll take you up in the sky, we'll be floatin'
Get you wet like the ocean
I'm-I'm-I'ma speed up on it
If your pussy was a book, I would read up on it
Girl, I'm just tryna get you back to my crib
Seen all them Instagram pictures you post
So I already know what it is
Talk to me now

[Chorus: Chris Brown, Wiz Khalifa, Chris Brown & Sean Kingston, Sean Kingston]
'Cause he ain't fly, no (Hahaha, he ain't fly)
He don't even drive, no (Don't drive, he don't drive)
That's why you're callin' my phone (My phone)
And won't leave me alone (Yeah, yeah)
He ain't even fly though (He ain't fly)
You ain't gotta lie, no (Girl, please don't lie)
That's why you're callin' my phone
And you're wantin' me to get, get, get it (Leggo)
Beat, beat, beat it, beat, beat, beat it (Girl, get it, get it)
You wantin' me to beat, beat, beat it (Let me beat it up, hey)
Beat, beat, beat it, beat, beat, beat it (Baby, you want me to, say what?)

You wantin' me to beat, beat (Beat it up)
Beat, beat, beat it, beat, beat, beat it (Right about now, yeah, yeah)
Beat, beat (Fi di gyal dem!)

What did Sean Kingston say about "Beat It"?
Genius Answer

Sean Kingston:

The video is crazy. We shot it at this fly big mansion, a lot of beautiful girls. It’s just the modern day Rat Pack. I’m 23, we all grown, so you really see us in a different light. We’re in suits, hot in fashion, just very swag and everything’s real tasteful. Helicopters, luxury cars, Ferraris, classic cars…
