Drake - Thank Me Later Album Lyrics

The money (money)
Cars (cars)
The clothes (clothes)
The hoes
I suppose

Yeah!
I want the money, money and the cars
Cars and the clothes, the hoes, I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful

Drizzy
Aw yeah, Trey, I f*ckin' feel ya
They be starin' at the money like it's unfamiliar
I get it, I live it, to me there's nothing realer
Just enough to solve your problems, too much'll kill ya
And when I leave, I always come right back here
The young spitter that everybody in rap fear
A lot of y'all are still sounding like last year
The game need change and I'm the motherf*ckin' cashier
Nickels for my thoughts, dimes in my bed
Quarters of the kush shape the lines in my head
Take my verses too serious, you'll hate me
'Cause I'm the one to paint a vivid picture, no HD
Yeah, I want it all, that's why I strive for it
Diss me, you'll never hear a reply for it
Any award show or party, I get fly for it
I know that it's coming, I just hope that I'm alive for it

I want the money, money and the cars
Cars and the clothes, the hoes, I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful

Yeah, I want things to go my way
But as of late, a lot of shit been going sideways
And my mother tried to run away from home
But I left something in the car and so I caught her in the driveway
And she cried to me, so I cried too
And my stomach was soaking wet, she only five-two
And Forty, that was all before I showed up
And brought a thousand dollars worth of drinks and got poured up
Damn, my reality just set in
And even when the Phantom's leased, them hoes wanna get in
I do a lot of things hopin' I never have to fit in
So try to keep up with my progress, it's like a dead-end
My girl love me, but f*ck it, my heart beats slow
And right now the tour bus is looking like a freak show
And life change for us every single week, so
It's good, but I know this ain't the peak though 'cause I want the

Money, money and the cars
Cars and the clothes, the hoes, I suppose
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful

(Aight, well uh, aight, we'll just f*ckin' figure it out)
(Young boy figure it out, you know what you're doing
Taking it to the top, all the way to the top
You need to go for the money, and not the honey
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?)

Uh
Wise words from a decent man
Back when I was tryna put a ring on Alisha hand
This lost boy got fly without Peter Pan
And my delivery just got me buzzing like the pizza man
In-person I am everything and more
I'm everywhere these other niggas never been before
But inside I'm treading water, steady tryna swim to shore
I'm on a shopping spree to get whatever is in store
Yeah, just call me "Shopping Bag Drizzy"
Or call me Mr. "Damn, he ain't coppin' that, is he?"
And fans of the freshman is about to get iffy
While this youngin' that you doubted is about to get busy
I'ma kill it, I promise, that's how I know you're mad
I've always treated my city like some shoulder pads
The big homie, use a flash if you must
And I swear I ain't asking for much, all I want is the

(Yeah) I want the money, money and the cars
Cars and the clothes, the hoes, I suppose
I just wanna be (yeah) I just wanna be successful (that's all I want, man)
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful (you gotta tell 'em, Trey)
I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful

Yeah, it's like I, it's like I know what I gotta say
I just don't know how to say it, to you

Uh, pardon the swag, but bitch it's Car-tey
Long bread, I don't eat shortcake, how come I can't
Miss a woman like I can't miss court dates
Cheese, but she's not in this portrait
And yeah, life's fine, but I don't portray
I'm on the other side, but it is a short gate
I don't want the glow, I want the glory
And I'ma f*ck the world, but this is just foreplay
Tired of hearing bullshit, bring on the cow shit
Haven't met a smell that's stinkier than our shit
Ha, and that's word to Toronto
So high up, I got birds in the condo
Ha, ain't that a female dog
Ask her who I am to her, and she yell, "God"
Weezy Baby, I go re-al hard
No further details, boy

(feat. Alicia Keys)

[Intro: Alicia Keys]
Ohhh (All I see is fireworks)
Ohhh (Every night it's fireworks)
Ohhh (All I see is fireworks)
Ohhh (Taking off like)
Oh, oh, ohhh, oh ohh

[Verse 1: Drake]
Money just changed everything, I wonder how life without it would go
From the concrete who knew that a flower would grow
Lookin' down from the top and it's crowded below
My fifteen minutes started an hour ago
Truth over fame, you know I respect the blatant shit
When I hear 'em talkin, I just don't know what to make of it
Hate is so familiar to me, I'm slowly embracing it
Doesn't come natural, bare with me it could take a bit
Yeah, and my dreams who I'm racing with
You can see I'm pacin' it so that I'm always chasin' it
Wayne put me right here, that's who I get the paper with'
I hope that my success never alters our relationship
Yeah, this life is something I would die for
October's Own, but it's lookin' like July 4
I just wish they'd let you try it first
This time I'm really goin' off, fireworks!

[Chorus: Alicia Keys]
When I go off, like July 4th
Feels like a fire, startin' to go higher
It's your revelation
My sweet celebration
Light me like a rocket, 'cause nothin' can stop it
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
Every night it's fireworks (ohh)
Every night it's fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
Taking off like fireworks (ohh)
Taking off like oh, oh, ohhh, oh ohh

[Verse 2: Drake]
I'm just such a gentleman
You should give it up for me
Look at how I'm placing all my napkins and my cutlery
I can tell it wasn't love, I just thought you'd f*ck with me
Who coulda' predicted love could strike with how you stuck with me
Damn, I kept my wits about me luckily
What happened between us that night it always seems to trouble me
Now all of a sudden these gossip brags wanna cover me
And you making it seem that it happened that way because of me
But I was curious and I'll never forget it baby
What an experience
You coulda' been the one but it wasn't that serious
There was smoke in the air before now it's me clearing it
That felt good, all and all I learned a lesson from it though
You never see it coming you just get to see it go
Yeah, I shoulda looked up in the sky at first
Now I see it in her eyes
Fireworks!

[Chorus: Alicia Keys]
When I go off, like July 4th
Feels like a fire, startin' to go higher
It's your revelation
My sweet celebration
Light me like a rocket, 'cause nothin' can stop it
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
Every night it's fireworks (ohh)
Every night it's fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
Taking off like fireworks (ohh)
Taking off like oh, oh, ohhh, oh ohh

[Verse 3: Drake]
Everything the same but it feels different
My dad called me up knowing that I still listen
And he's still got his foot out, guilt trippin'
It's been years, though, I just learn to deal with it
For real, me and my Realtor we built up a better rapport
Got my mother in a place with some better decor
She searched the entire city, I let her explore
And now she's sayin' she's more lonely than every before
How many of our parents' marriages lasted?
I was only 5, I bet I barely reacted
I'm flying back home for the heritage classic
Searching for that feeling, tell me where is the magic?
Let's stay together 'til we're ghosts
I want to witness love
I've never seen it close
Yeah, but I guess I gotta find it first
That's why I'm really going off, Fireworks!

[Chorus: Alicia Keys]
When I go off, like July 4th
Feels like a fire, startin' to go higher
It's your revelation
My sweet celebration
Light me like a rocket, 'cause nothin' can stop it
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
Every night it's fireworks (ohh)
Every night it's fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
All I see is fireworks (ohh)
Taking off like fireworks (ohh)
Taking off like oh, oh, ohhh, oh ohh

[Verse 1:]
Things been so crazy and hected
I should of have got back by now
But you know how much I wanted to make it
It's probably better any how...

[Bridge:]
So if you gotta go
If there's anythin I should know
If the spotlight makes you nervous
If you looking for a purpose

[Verse 2:]
You put the tea in the kettle and light it
Put your hand on the metal and feel it
But do you even feel it anymore
I remember when you thought I was joking
Now I'm all singing karaoke, further than I ever been

[Bridge:]
So if you gotta go...
If there's anyway I can help

[Verse 3: Rap]
Isn't it ironic,
That the girl I wanna marry is a wedding planner
And tell's me my life is to much and moves to atlanta
Damn, of all the places you could go
I just thought you would choose some where that had somebody that you know
I'm alway's up to late
I worry bout you there alone in a place you call home warm nights and cold patron
I hope you don't get known for nothing crazy cause no man wants to hear those stories bout his lady
I know they say the first love is the sweetest but the first cut is the deepest
I tryed to keep us together you was busy keeping secrets
Secrets you would tell everybody but me
Don't be fooled by the money
I'm still just young and unlucky
I'm suprise you couldn't tell

[Bridge:]
I was only trying to get ahead [x2]
But the spotlight makes you nervous
And your looking for a purpose

Song Plays...

I was only trying to get ahead [x2]
But the spotlight makes you nervous...

Song Fades...

[Intro:]
Yesterday when we were getting high, you were invited.
You would've liked it. I-I know you all too well.
I said that we could kiss the past goodbye, but you weren't excited, there's no way to fight it.
You can stay but shawty here I go...

[Verse 1:]
Uh, should I spend the weekend in Vegas?
I'm living inside a moment, not taking pictures to save it.
I mean, how could I forget? My memories never faded.
I can't relate to these haters, my enemies never made it.
I am, still here with who I started with.
The game needed life, I put my heart in it.
I blew myself up, I'm on some martyr shit.
Carried the weight for my city like a cargo ship.
Uh. I'm 23, with a money tree.
Growing more too, I just planted a hundred seeds.
It's ironic, 'cause my mother was a flourist,
And that's how she met my pops and now my garden is enourmous.
It's happening Penny Lane, just like you said.
I avoided the Coke game, and went with Sprite instead.
Uh huh, that's word to the millions that they putting up.
I'm trying to do better than good enough.

[Chorus:]
What am I afraid of? This is suppose to be what dreams are made of.
But people I don't have the time to hang with, always look at me and say the same shit... (they say)
You promised me you would never change.
You promised me you would never change.

[Verse 2:]
Uh. Am I wrong for making light of my situation? Clap on.
When 40 got some shit for me to snap on.
Now that I'm on, I don't really want to worry about getting back on.
I'm just trying to stay on, get my f*cking buffet on.
I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home.
And I be acting like I don't know how to work a phone.
But hit redial you see that I just called, some chick I met at the mall,
That I barley know at all and...
Plus this woman that I messed with unprotected
Texting saying that she wish she would've kept it.
The one that I'm laying next to just looked over and read it.
Man I couldn't tell you where the f*ck my head is, I'm holding on by a thread it's...
Like I'm high right now, the guy right now, and you can tell by looking in my eyes right now.
That nothing really comes as a surprise right now,
'cause we just having the time of our lives right now.

[Chorus:]
What am I afraid of? This is suppose to be what dreams are made of.
But people I don't have the time to hang with, always look at me and say the same shit... (they say)
You promised me you would never change.
You promised you would never change.

[Verse 3:]
Well all right. Uh. I live by some advices, girl Lisa told me.
The other day, Lisa told that she missed the old me.
Which made me question when I went missing.
And when I start treating my friends different.
Maybe it was the fast paced switch up.
Or the two guns in my face during the stick up.
Maybe cause the girl I thought I trusted was who set the whole shit up.
Or the fact I haven't seen em since they locked Big Rich up.
I know. At the same time I'm quick to forget.
I'm bout to roll me up a blunt with my list of regrets.
Burn it all, burn it all, I'm starting it fresh.
Cause half the time I got it right I probably guessed.
Did I just trade free time for camera time?
Will I blow all of this money baby, Hammer Time?
I just need some closure.
Ain't no turning back for me I'm in till it's over.

[Chorus: Drake]
I know way too many people here right now that I didn't know last year
Who the f*ck are y'all
I swear it feels like the last few nights we've been everywhere and back
But I just can't remember it all
What am I doing, what am I doing
Oh yeah that's right, I'm doing me, I'm doing me
I'm living life right now man
And this what I'm do til it's over
Til it's over, but it's far from over

[Verse 1:]
Alright, bottles on me
Long as I'm a drink it
Never drop the ball, f*ck y'all thinking
Making sure the young money ship is never sinking
Bout to set it off in this bitch Jada Pinkett
I shouldn't have drove, tell me how I'm getting home
You too fine to be laying down in bed alone
I can teach you how to speak my language Rosetta stone
I swear this life is like the sweetest thing I've ever known
Bout to go thriller Mike Jackson on these niggas
All I need is a f*cking red jackets with some zippers
Super good smito a package of the swishas
I did it over night, it couldn't happen any quicker
Y'all know them, well f*ck it me either
But point the biggest skeptic out I'll make them a believer
It wouldn't be the first time I've done it throwing hundreds
When I should be throwing ones bitch I run it ahh,

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]
Uhhh,
One thing bout music when it hits you feel no pain
And I swear I got this shit that makes these bitches go insane
So they tell me that they love me I know better than that it's just game
It's just what comes from fame
And I'm ready for that I'm just saying but
I really can't complain, everything is kosher
Two thumbs up, eva and roper
I really can't see the end getting any closer
But I'll probably still be the man when everything is over
So I'm riding through the city with my high beams on
Can you see me can you see me get your visine on
Y'all just do not fit the picture
Turn your widescreen on
If you thinking I'm a quit before I die dream on
Man they treat me like a legend
Am I really this cold
I'm really too young to be feeling this old
It's about time you admit it who you kidding
Nobody's ever done it like I did it
Ahhhhh

[Chorus:]
How did I end up right here with you
After all the things that I been through
It's been one of those days
We try and forget about
Take the shot and let it out
Let's get right
Now that I'm here baby...

[Hook:]
Show me a good time
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Show me a good time
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Show me a good
Show me a good
Show me a good time
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)

[Verse 1:]
I live for the nights that I can't remember,
With the people I won't forget
Spending all the money I just work my ass off
For the things I won't regret
I've been waiting way too long long long long
Tellin' everybody that I know we about to be on on on on
I ain't tryin' look like I lie to these niggas that I came up with
That's my team, never would I let a woman come between
What we doing right now
This our dream, Wu Tang Clan niggas want that cream
I'm the Osirus of the shit right now
Go to guy for the hits right now
Whatever you wanna drink girl pick right now
If you can't hold your liquor you better quit right now

[Chorus]

[Hook]

[Verse 2: Drake]
How 'bout you and all your morals in that outfit that you borrowed
Make the most out of tonight and worry bout it all tomorrow
Can't get me right and I do Wayne
Cash money young money pop champagne
Presidential suite girl Barrack Hussain
Tell me can we kick it like [? ] dawg
People really hate when a backpack rapper get rich
And start livin' that life dawg
Feels like when you gettin to that paper hip hop hates ya
They would do it just like I do if they could
It's in our nature
Ahh, young and rich and out of control
I [? ] blowing clouds to the killer
I came up in the underground though
So I'm a spend another ten thousand for Dilla
Call me over rated or creative or too jaded
Because any way you put it bitch I made it, YUP

[Chorus]

[Hook]

Kush rolled, glass full, I prefer the better things
Niggas with no money act like money isn't everything
I'm havin' a good time, they just trying to ruin it
Shout out to the fact that I'm the youngest nigga doing it
Cap on, brim bent, Denzel, every time
She ain't tryna pop that shit for pimp, okay, well nevermind
I, I, I tried to told you, Drizzy still ain't nothin' nice
Bracelet saying "you should quit", cars saying "f*ck your life"
Okay now we outta here, toodles to you bitches
And if you dolled up, I got the voodoo for you bitches, yeah
I'm busy gettin' rich, I don't want trouble
I made enough for two niggas, boy, stunt double
Fame is like a drug that I've taken too much of
But I never ever trip, just peace, happiness and love
I got money in these jeans, so they fit me kinda snug
Plus the game is in my pocket, nigga this is what I does

I'm about whatever man, f*ck what they be talkin' about
They opinion doesn't count, we the only thing that matters
Aww, so we do it how we do it
All up in your face man, I hate to put you through it
I be up all night, whole crew's in here
'Cause I don't really know who I'ma lose this year
Aww, man I love my team
Man I love my team, I would die for them niggas, aww

Drizzy say get her, I'ma get her
I got the kind of money, that make a broke bitch bitter
I got that kinda, wait, wait, fixate
Which bitch, you know made a million off a mixtape?
That was just a keepsake, bought the president
The Louis presidential briefcase, never been a cheapskate
We got the Hawks, I ain't talkin' about the Peach State
Man, for Pete's sake, scratch that-sweepstakes
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha) F*ck I look like, ho?
I look like "yes" and you like "no"
I'm a bad bitch, I ain't never been a mixed breed
On a diet, but I'm doin' donuts in a 6-speed
M6 in front of M2
I see a lot of rap bitches on the menu
But I collect 100 thou' at the venue
And pop bottles with my team, Young Money 'til the death of me

I'm about whatever man, f*ck what they be talkin' about
They opinion doesn't count, we the only thing that matters
Aww, so we do it how we do it
All up in your face man, I hate to put you through it
I be up all night, whole crew's in here
'Cause I don't really know who I'ma lose this year
Aww, man I love my team
Man I love my team, I would die for them niggas, aww

I mean, we can't even rock them shoes
If it don't got a comma on the price tag, you know?
I mean, I mean but then again
Who, who looks at the price tag, you know?
Aww yeah we in this bitch (uhh)
Aww, aww, aww
Oh yeah we in this bitch
Aww, aww, aww

I'm about whatever man, f*ck what they be talkin' about
They opinion doesn't count, we the only thing that matters
Aww, so we do it how we do it
All up in your face man, I hate to put you through it
I be up all night, whole crew's in here
'Cause I don't really know who I'ma lose this year
Aww, man I love my team
Man I love my team, I would die for them niggas, aww

I'm about whatever man, f*ck what they be talkin' about
They opinion doesn't count, we the only thing that matters
Aww, so we do it how we do it
All up in your face man, I hate to put you through it
I be up all night, whole crew's in here
'Cause I don't really know who I'ma lose this year
Aww, man I love my team
Man I love my team, I would die for them niggas, oh

Nails done, hair done, everything did, uh
Nails done, hair done, everything did
Oh, you fancy, huh?

You getting ready so I know we gon' be here awhile
In the bathroom flat irons and nail files
Spending hours in salons on your hairstyles
In the mall steady racking up the air miles
Hit the gym, step on the scales, stare at the number
You say you droppin' 10 pounds preparin' for summer
And you don't do it for the man, men never notice
You just do it for yourself, you the f*cking coldest
Intelligent too, ooh you're my sweetheart
I've always liked my women book and street smart
Long as they got a little class like half days
And the confidence to overlook my past ways
Time heals all and heels hurt to walk in
But they go with the clutch that you carry your lip gloss in
And look, I really think that nobody does it better
I love the way you put it together, uh

Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Nails done, hair done, everything did

You, you fancy huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh??
Nails done, hair done, everything did
Nails done, hair done, everything did ('Sup, girl)
Oh, you fancy, huh?

Well, aren't you a breath of fresh air?
From all these superficial gold digging bitches in here
They get a baller, think that they ain't got to pick a career
Guess they plan on sucking dicks until some millions appear
Like "Voilà!" You do it right he might just buy you a car
Now she play these suckers just like B.o.B play the guitar
Now here you are with your girls having drinks at the bar
I say I'm buying, you decline, that is kinda bizarre
Independent with the demeanor of an R&B singer (check)
Naked ring finger, M3 Beamer (check, check)
Champagne Range, triple-white Jag
Closet full of brand new clothes and handbags
Alexander McQueen, Prada, Gucci, Chanel
D&G, BCBG, Versace, Louis and Bebe
You ain't needy, greedy or easy as these other breezy's
Who f*ck for bottles of Riesling and bowls of baked ziti

Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Nails done, hair done, everything did
Nails done, hair done, everything did (oh!)

Atlanta girls, let me see your hands (yeah)
Wave 'em at them bitches hating on you with their friends (come on)
Girl you got it, let 'em know that everything big
Nails done hair done, everything big
And my NY girls, let me see your hands (woo)
Wave 'em at them bitches hating on you with their friends (come on)
Girl you got it, let 'em know that everything big
Nails done hair done, everything big

Wave 'em at them bitches hating on you with their friends (yeah)
Girl you got it, let 'em know that everything big
Nails done, hair done, nails done, hair done
Say go Cinderella, go Cinderella
Orgasm blush, lipstick and concealer
Devil in a tight dress, girl you a killer
And ain't nobody realer, and ain't nobody realer, go
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go (showtime)
Go, go, go, go, go (as we proceed)

Uh, 5 and a half in boys, ass is off the hook
Cinderella 'bout to lose the glass off her foot
And when I find it is when I find you
And we can do the things we never got the time to
Better late than never but never late is better
They tell me time is money, well we'll spend it together
I'm down for whatever, you just lead the way
We go to dinner you don't even look at me to pay
Mature women with more than me were the first to tempt me
And Jason had this girl Tammy with a purple Bentley
How she got it I ain't never get to ask
I just knew that she was fine like a ticket on the dash
Yeah, but shout out to the homeowners
The girls that got diplomas and enough money to loan us
A little something extra, should we ever need it
If it sounds like you, then let me hear you repeat it

Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Oh, you fancy, huh?
Nails done, hair done, everything did
Nails done, hair done, everything did

Nails done, hair done, everything did
Nails done, hair done, everything did
Oh, you fancy, huh? (fancy)

[Drake:]
These girls ain't got nothing on you
Uhh, say baby I had to mention
But if you were a star you'd be the one I'm searching for
All the girls they got attention
But I just always feel like there in need of something you got
It's obvious you're pretty
Heard that you're a student working weekends in the city
Trying to take you out girl, hope your not too busy
And if there's nothing wrong, got this little song
For you to get ready to
Put those f*cking heels on and work it girl
Let that mirror show you what you're doing
Put that f*cking dress on and work it kinda vicious
Like somebody's taking pictures

[Chorus:]
Shut it down (ey) down (ey) down (ey)
You would shut it down (ey) down (ey) down (ey)
You'd be the baddest girl around round round
And they notice they notice
You would shut it down (ey) down (ey) down (ey)
You'd be the baddest girl around (ey) round (ey) round (ey)
And they notice they notice
You would shut it, hey oh
These girls ain't got nothing on you nothing on you

[The-Dream:]
Girl you the greatest and if he say you ain't girl he's out his
Mind you the finest and if he say you ain't that boy done lost his
Mind, hey baaaby everytime you come around shut it down like
Computers, hey laaady step in my heart let me put you in the lou
Vuitons.

[Hook: The-Dream]
What you want
What you need
I can be (I can be)
Your everything
Them other niggas
Just wanna hit it but if they had it
They wouldn't know what to do with it
(And together)

[Drake & The-Dream:]
We shut it down (ey) down (ey) down (ey)
They know we shut it down (ey) down (ey) down (ey)
Your the baddest girl around

[The-Dream:]
Concrete move,

Ice cream conversations they all want the scoop
You shut that motherf*cker down, down, down
Oh yeah,
Yes indeed, you shut it down down

[Drake:]
Shootin stars all around fire, comets I could bring her through
Shut em down onyx no you not imaginin there looking at you
Long stares even though she standing out she looks like
She belongs here you feel the hours past until you find something
I feel like when she moves the time doesn't yeah baby you finer than
Your fine cousin and your cousin fine but she ain't got my heart beating
Double time you just shut it down girl who told the cops where the party
Was? Why do I feel like found the one? What's in these shots that you order us
Damn I mean you sure know how to paint a town ever since you came
Around it's obvious you

(Down down down)
You shut it down

You shut it down
You shut it down
You shut it, ohh

Go go go get 'em girl,

[Drake:]
The way I'm feeling, things I say all things all just happen in my way what can I
Do to make you stay I know it's getting late but girl I don't want you leave you
Tell your just not the type you want to this right but I'm trying to say I don't believe
You but I refuse to feel ashamed and if you feel the same just wait, really makes
Us better people take those f*cking heels off it's worth it girl nothing is what I could
Picture you in so take that f*cking dress off I swear you won't forget me you'll be
Happy that you let me lay you down, down, down tryna lay you down, down, down you
Still the baddest girl around, round, round they notice, they notice let me lay you
Down, down, down tryna lay you down, down.down you still the baddest girl around,
Round, round and they notice they notice you'll shut it

(Aaliyah)
Let me know, let me know, ohhh ohhh
Let me know, let me know, let me know

[Drake:]
Yo, this is really one of my dumbest flows ever
I haven't slept in days, and me and my latest girl agreed to go our seperate ways, so I'm single
Thinking about what we had and missing you,
But I ain't Santa, I got something for these bad bitches too
I mean paparazzi on me, trying not to get called out,
They always seem to catch me with the women that I brought out
Baby, don't hold on too long 'cause that's how those stories start out,
And all those girls that played me, Eat your muthaf*ckin heart out, it's Drizzy
Always gone but never hard to find,
And since you can't escape me, do I ever cross your mind?
Because all this shit is new to me, I'm learning to behave,
And still spending every dollar they encourage me to save, but I'm good
I know that niggas would kill for this lifestyle,
I'm looking forward to the memories of right now
Never forgettin' from where I came,
And no matter where I'm headed, I promise to stay the same

[Chorus: Young Jeezy & Drake]
I'm just riding round the city with my hood on and my windows down
Ask your girl, I'm the realest nigga she been around
When I pull up in something new and park it by the haters,
And when you get to talkin' bout the greatest, I just really hope that
You'd think of me,
I just really hope that you'd think of me,
I just really hope that you'd think of me,
'Cause I'm trynna be unforgettable

[Young Jeezy:]
This just might be my realest flow ever,
When I say for life, y'all say forever
It's hard, but it's fair, I told that girl "Life hurts"
The closest you gonna get to this is a Pac t-shirt
The name's Young, baby, you know I live that thug life
The good die young, so I'm a need a thug wife
Yeah, I'm talking his and her firearms
Know our jewelry prolly louder than a car alarm
Yeah, I'm in my "used to have to sneak the car"
Now my insides are lookin like a snickers bar
Yeah, I'm talking continental leathers,
Damn right, so fly I need feathers
She saying shit in them streets, so what's the deal?
And I've done everything in the A, but f*ck chillin'
So welcome to my life, no two days the same
Like for y'all to meet the love of my life, her name's the game

[Chorus: Young Jeezy & Drake]
I'm just riding round the city with my hood on and my windows down
Ask your girl, I'm the realest nigga she been around
When I pull up in something new and park it by the haters,
And when you get to talkin' bout the greatest, I just really hope that
You'd think of me,
I just really hope that you'd think of me,
I just really hope that you'd think of me,
'Cause I'm trynna be unforgettable

[talking: Young Jeezy]
Got this top dropped on this beautiful night
This beautiful night to live my beautiful life
Pain hurts like a cut from a beautiful knife
Just know she right here on my hip, my beautiful wife
Yeah, Drizzy we got em lil brah,
Unforgettable, you'll never forget this, ya understand me?
Time is on me, unforgettable
Let me know, let me know

[Verse 1: Drake]
I've been up for 4 days
Getting money both ways
Dirty and clean, I could use a glass of cold spades
Rolexes, chauffeurs, and low fades
I keep thinking how young can you die from old age
The always tell me no one is working as hard as you
And even though I laugh it off man it's probably true
Cause while all of my closest friends out partying
I'm just here making all the music that they party too
But party on, party on, all night nigga
I got these new rappers nervous prom night nigga
I grow tired of these f*cking grown man liars
Story tellers, they ain't even need a camp fire
Uhh, but I just wanna tell the truth
Before one of these haters load a couple shells and shoot
This shit feel like when fredro star was a sunset bar stunting hard in his yellow goose
Ya, and I'm a mothing f*cking missed target
But a target none the less, and I just started
Was that directed at Muahh?
Can't be, they must be talking to themselves Hov, hands free
Yeah, and I'm just filling up this daily planner
Getting busy cause I'm a star, no spangled banner
Jealous dudes get to talking in their music
And I just say I wrote it for yo girlfriends Kelsey Grammar
Yah, that's what life becomes when you doing you
Welcome to Hollywood don't let this town ruin you
And if you pillow talking with the women that are screwing you
Just know that she gon tell another nigga when she through with you
Don't get impatient when it takes to long
And drink it all even when it taste too strong yeah
I get her feeling live even if it kills me
Promise to always give you me, the real me

[Chorus:]
Who would have thought
I'd be caught in this life?
Let's celebrate with a toast
And get lost in tonight
And make it all light up
(Hey, Guru, tell hom' to go to open that Ace right there),
Wait until the sun goes down
We gon' make this bitch light up
Even when the sun goes down
I'm gon' make this go

[Verse 2: Jay-Z]
OWWWWWWW, Hov turning heads like OWELSSSSS
I'm the man of the hour
Triple entendre don't even ask me how
Con-Edison Flo I'm connected to a high power
Bright lights will make your whole city light up
A trillion watt light bulb when I'm in the night club
I just landed in that G-450, caught the mayweather fight cause his satellite was crispy
Uhh, ya'll can miss me with the money talk
The smart moneys on Hov, f*ck what the dummys talk
I don't do to much blogging, I just run the town, I don't do to much jogging
I ain't gotta scar yet, you f*cking round with me and my dogs is far fetched
Drake, heres how they gon come at you
With silly rap feuds trying to distract you
In disguise in the form of a favor
The Barzini meeting, watch for the traitors
Uhh, and I've seen it all done it all
That's why none of these dum dums could done him off
The summers ours, the winter too
Top down in the winter, that's what winners do
And to these niggas I'm like windows 7
You let em tell it they swear that they invented you
And since no good deed go unpunished
I'm not as cool with niggas as I once was
I once was, cool as the fonz was,
But these bright lights turned me to a monster
Sorry mama I'm promised they wouldn't change me,
But I woulda went insane, had I remain the same ME
F*ck nggas, bitches too
All I got is this money, this will do

[Chorus]

[Drake:]
I said tell me what's really going on
Drizzy back up in this thing I'm ready, what's happenin'?
Gone for surgery but now I'm back again
I'm bout my paper like a muthaf*cking scratch and win
World Series attitude, champagne bottle life
Nothin' ever changes so tonight is like tomorrow night
I will have a model wife
Your bitch is as hot as ice
Everytime you see me I look like I hit the lotto twice
(Drake you got 'em right)
Yeah I got 'em Bun
I love myself because I swear their life is just not as fun
Neeks got the weed, Hush got a gun
CJ got my credit cards and a lot of ones
Yeah, I'm in the city of the purple sprite
Someone tell Maliah I'm on fire she should work tonight
Call her King of Diamonds and tell China it'd be worth the flight
I'll be at my table stacking dollars to the perfect height
Work somethin', twerk somethin' basis
She just tryna make it so she right here gettin' naked
I don't judge her, I don't judge her
But I could never love her cause to her I'm just a rapper
And soon she'll have met another
That's why me and Lil Jazz bout to spazz, can you keep up?
I'm just feeling sorry for whoever got to sweep up
Yeah, bills everywhere, trill everything
And Drake just stand for Do Right And Kill Everything
I love Nicki Minaj
I told her I'd admit it
I hope one day we get married just to say we f*cking did it
And girl I'm f*cking serious I'm with it if you with it
'Cause your verses turn me on and your pants are mighty fitted
Uh, damn, I think you caught me in a moment
Like I catch em stealing flows cause I swear I never loaned it
And life ain't a rehearsal the cameras always rollin'
So come and get a portion of this money that we be blowin'
'Cause it's on

[Chorus: Drake]
Yeah girl it's on
You know what it is when I finally make it home
I just hope that you miss me a little when I'm gone
Yeah I just hope that you miss me a little when I'm gone
And you just tell me what you down for
Anything you down for
I know things have changed
Know I used to be around more
But you should miss a little when I'm gone
I just hope you miss me a little when I'm gone, gone

[Lil Wayne:]
Oooh shit
Muthaf*cker God Damn
Kickin' bitches out the Condo like pam
Gettin' money everyday, I'm a ground hog
'Bout to scoop your girl up like a ground ball
I walk light so I don't piss the ground off
Man I swear my bitches do it 'til they suck the brown off
Erghhh, that's nasty
Yes I am Weezy but I ain't asthmatic
James Bond cologne, hunny I put on
Make 'em run and tell their friends like a marathon
Voice baritone
Haters carry on
Beat the pussy up, call me Larry Holmes
Young Money's Jerry Sloan
I turn every stone
When she masturbate to me, that's how she learn every song
To women I condone better write me when I'm gone
No I'm not that thuggish, not that ruggish but I do pack Bone
Uhh, I'm a love machine
And I won't work for nobody but you
It's only me and her because the Bugatti coupe
It's blood gang slam but I party with Snoop
I ain't lying I shoot
You don't need signs for proof
Turn you to a vegatable like you lining soup
And when I'm in the booth, bitch the lion is loose
Man I got so many styles, I am a group ahaha
Damn, I'll be gone 'til November
But f*ck it I ain't trippin, I know Drizzy gon' kill em'
I'm sticking to the script like lint on denim
Mama said "if the rules ain't bent, don't bend em'"
Real nigga talking
Shut the f*ck up hoe
Gotta do it one time for Haiti, wattup zoe
Weezy F Baby and the F is for front door
'Cause that's where I bring it,
Soo wu if you bang it, mothaf*cka'

[Chorus: Drake]
Yeah girl it's on
You know what it is when I finally make it home
I just hope that you miss me a little when I'm gone
Yeah I just hope that you miss me a little when I'm gone
And you just tell me what you down for
Anything you down for
I know things have changed
Know I used to be around more
But you should miss a little when I'm gone
I just hope you miss me a little when I'm gone, gone, gone

[Singing: Drake]
All night I've been staring
Can you tell I want you
Can't be too wide open
There's nothing I won't do
Ohhhh
Just thought you should no ohhhhhh woah
That's when you start to laugh
Oooo oh, oooo oh
Saying I just want what I can't have
Oooo oh, oooo oh
You won't even give me a chance
Oooo oh, oooo oh
Claiming I'm just not as serious as you
Shawty if you only knew
This is serious

Uhh, I wish I wasn't famous
I wish I was still in school
So that I can have you in my dorm room
How I put it on you, crazy
That's when you start to laugh
Oooo oh, oooo oh
Saying I just want what I can't have
Oh ooooh, oh oooooh
Won't even give me a chance
Oooo oh, oooo oh
Claiming I'm just not as serious as you
Shawty if you only knew
This is serious

[music plays... ]
Huh woah oah, huh woah oah
Huh woah oah, huh woah oah
Huh woah oah, huh woah oah

[Verse 1:]
I'm more than just an option (hey, hey, hey)
Refuse to be forgotten (hey, hey, hey)
I took a chance with my heart (hey, hey, hey)
And I feel it taking over

[Chorus:]
I better find your loving
I better find your heart [x3]
I bet if I give all my love then nothing's gonna tear us apart

[Verse 2:]
I'm more than just a number (hey, hey, hey)
I doubt you'll find another (hey, hey, hey)
So every single summer (hey, hey, hey)
I'll be the one that you remember

[Chorus:]
And I better find your loving
I better find your heart
I better find your loving
I better find your heart
I better find your loving
I better find your heart
I bet if I give all my love then nothing's gonna tear us apart

[Verse 3:]
It's more than just a mission (hey, hey, hey)
You hear but you don't listen (hey, hey, hey)
You betta pay attention (hey, hey, hey)
And get what you been missing

[Chorus:]
I better find your loving
I better find your heart [x3]
I bet if I give all my love then nothing's gonna tear us apart

[Bridge:]
Too many times I've been wrong
I guess being right takes too long
I'm done waiting, there's nothing left to do
But give all I have to you
And I better find your loving
I better find your heart
I better find your loving
I bet if I give all my love then nothing's gonna tear us apart

[beat plays]

I bet if I give all my love then nothing's gonna tear us apart...

[Song Fades]

[Chorus: Drake]
You could thank me now
Uh, go 'head
Thank Me Later yeah I know what I said
But later doesn't always come so instead
It's okay,
You could thank me now
Uhh, yeah, well alright, here I go

[Verse 1: Drake]
Mahalo from the hardest act to follow
Lately I've been drinking like there's a message in a bottle
Aloha's to women with no ties
To men that I know well
That way there are no lies
You could thank me now for all the info I give to you niggas
On the brink of influential
I'm here for you niggas I guess a hit doesn't add up to a career
For you niggas
I must have been hard to watch,
What a year for you niggas
It's December 31st and we in Miami just meditating
You got resolutions, we just got reservations
Living out a dream, it feels like I stayed up
And we just wanna party [? ] straight up
F*ck that old shit, I'm on new things
OVO clique, Red wing boot gang
Yeah we want it all, half was never the agreement
Who'd thought the route we chose would ever end up this scenic
I could relate to kids going straight to the league
When they recognise that you got what it takes to succeed
And that's around the time that your idols become your rivals
You make friends with Mike but gotta AI him for your survival
Damn, I swear sports and music are so synonomous
'cause we wanna be them and they wanna be us
Yeah so on behalf of the demanded
And the entertainment you take for granted
You could thank me now...
And oh my goodness you're welcome
You're welcome
At this point me is who I'm trying to save myself from
Rappers hit me up and I never know what to tell them
Cause they think that I can help them get back to where they fell from
But drink up because everyone here is good tonight
Except the niggas that I came with, they good for life
Yeah, that's how you know it's going down
In case another chance never comes around...

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: Drake]
Uhh, shallow nigga but deep enough to have gone swimming
I think I'm spending all my time with the wrong women
I think I have a chance at love but knowing me I miss it
Cause me dedicating my time just isn't realistic
Man the good girls went silent on me
They got a boyfriend or left for college on me
And all the bad ones I used to hit her friends now
That make me wish I had a little less mileage on me
But do I ever come up in discussion over double pump latte's
And low fat muffin's, do I?
Or is missing what we had outta the question
I'm probably just the reason that you learned your lesson
I got flows for the Marilyn Monroe's who's there before it all
I guess that's how it goes
They hear about your cons or focus on your pro's
And love you for who you are from the bottom of their soul
But those same ones from your area will grow
Into women that are ready to get married at hello
Because of what they allow
Where are they all now
I know there somewhere watching so I'm trying to make them proud
Searching for the meaning
You'll find it next to me
And tell me that I'm the finest I guess we finally get to see
I'm feeling like Nas who am I to disagree
They say that doors open up as soon as you find the missing key
It's probably why I'm in this bitch shining
Jump up in the sky and put the stars into alignment
I rep the ATF in case you need to be reminded
And the bandwagons full you can try and run behind it
I'm sorry poolside drinking
Margharita rounds
Shout out to my city though I hardly be in town
I'm the Black Sheep, but Chris Farley wears the crown
And I know life is just a game in which the cards are facing down
I'm in the World where things are taken, never given
How long they choose to love you will never be your decision
And I'm aware this could be the last time you listen
So while I'm still in this postion...

[Chorus]

[Drake:]
Yeah uh yeah
These are my one St Thomas flows
Me and my niggas and some madonna hoes
That look just like virgins but trust they down to go
Discussin' life and all our common goals
Smart kids that smoke weed, honor roll
Look how the champagne diamonds flow
Find dining, pour another another glass when the wine is low

I'm in the crib stackin' money from here to the ceilin'
Whatever it is I got is clearly appealin'
These other rappers gettin' at it very you feelin
I hope you feel it in your soul spiritual healin'
Take a look at yourself the mirror's revealin'
If you ain't got it you ain't got it the theory is brilliant

People ask how music is goin' I heard it pays
I just came off makin' 2 million in 30 days
Damn I guess it does what the message was
Sometimes I feel I be spendin' my money just because
But weezy I'm just out here reppin' us
Till I get to shake the hand of the man that's blessin' us

Yeah, I know these niggas miss the mean lyrics
Kush got the room smellin' like teen spirit
I asked kindly if no-one out here would bring there feet up
Until I lose for now I'm the game's single leader
I fly private so no-one tells me to bring my seat up
And book a suite when me and your favorite singer meet up

Who you like, tell me who it is
I'm a make sure that that women is the next one on my list
I should call it a night but f*ck it I can't resist
This one is for all my niggas from my city tryin to diss
Without a respnce from me you really fail to exist
And I love to see you fail that feelin' there is the shit
I swear, aghh pussy nigga get your bread up
Enjoy the seat that the steward just forced your ass to let up
Why your scary ass lookin' down pick your head up
No-one told you your disguise is the most ridiculous gettup
With nose plugs in now I can smell a set up
So your just wastin your time your just only makin me better

Yeah I try to tell them don't judge me because you heard stuff
Chasin' cash that's my brother from the surf club
Damn that nigga always kept it so hood
Back when we would smoke good
At the oakwoods
And have girls fall through like coins in a couch
Now we just f*ckin all the bitches they warned us about
Scared for the first time everything has clicked
What if I don't really do the numbers they predict
Considerin the fact that I'm the one that they just picked
To write a chapter in history this shit has got me sick
But if I really do it don't expect to get a split
Cause this truly is some shit I don't expect you all to get

I'm nervous but I'm about to kill it cause they about to let the realist team in
Throwin up in a huddle nigga Willie beamin
Were still throwin touchdown passes
And tore his frame glasses
Hopin that someone catch it
People say that oh drake we started to miss it
But they need to be a little more specific man is this what ya'll want?

And my best chris tucker impression
Ducking your questions
F*ck your suggestions
Money gets all of my love and affection
Cars all black like the cover of essence
I'm allergic to comin in second
But I never sneeze
Nigga YMOE nigga yeeah

Uh, yeah, this want ya'll want
Octobers Very Own
Young Money
ATF
Thank me later in this bitch wasssup
Free Weezy in this bitch wasup
June 15th in this bitch wasup
