"Flau n B is 'OTW'! This What Yall Been Waiting 4?"
In the short clip, Johnson belted the lyrics of her new song while she sat on a sofa.
"If you ever call, then I'm on the way. Whenever I slide, I know that I'm safe, so I'm on the way. I'm on the way, yeah. My favorite part. Did I overplay? Your heart is my home. Did I overstay? I overstayed. I overstayed," Johnson sang.
"You put me first. I think we gonna last. You drive me insane. I hope we don't crash, but I'll be okay. I'll be okay. But it kinda hurt and it's getting worse. It kinda feel like a gift and a curse but I don't complain. I need you to stay."
