[Verse 2: Drake]
Sittin'✦ Gucci✦ Row like they say up at UNLV
Young rebel, Young Money,✦ nothin'✦ you could tell me
Paperwork takin'✦ too long, maybe they don't understand me
I'll compromise if I have to, I gotta✦ stay with the family✦
Not even✦ talkin'✦ to Nicki,✦ communication✦ is breakin'
I dropped the ball on some personal✦ shit, I need to embrace✦ it
I'm honest, I make mistakes, I'd be the second to admit✦ it
Think that's why I need her in my life, to check me when I'm trippin'
On a mission,✦ tryna✦ shift the culture✦
Tell me who dissin',✦ I got some things that'll hit the culprit
Them strep throat flows, them shits to stop all of the talkin'✦
All of the talkin',✦ got one reply✦ for all of your comments
Fuck what you think, I'm too busy,✦ that's why you leave a message
Born a perfectionist, guess that makes✦ me a bit obsessive
That shit I heard from you lately✦ really✦ relieved some pressure✦
Like ayy, B, I got your CD, you get an E for effort
I piece letters together and get to talkin'✦ reckless
Owl chains like credentials, you know you see the necklace✦
My life's✦ a completed checklist
I'm tired✦ of hearin'✦ 'bout who you checkin' for now
Just give it time, we'll see who's still around a decade✦ from now
That's real
[Verse 3: Drake]
How much time is this nigga✦ spendin'✦ on the intro?✦
Lately✦ I've been feelin'✦ like Guy Pearce in Memento
I just set the bar, niggas fall under✦ it like a limbo✦
The family✦ all that matters, I'm just out here with my kinfolk
Off everything my pen wrote, we went from Bundy✦ to Winslow
This for shorty✦ up on Glengrove who love when I catch my tempo✦
I sip the Pora✦ and listen✦ to Cappadonna (Talk to 'em)
The fresh prince, just had dinner✦ with Tatyana, no lie
All these nineties✦ fantasies✦ on my mind
The difference is that with mine, they all come true in due time
I might come through without security to check if you're fine
That's just me on my solo✦ like "Fuck it", like "YOLO"✦
Wanted✦ to tell you, "Accept✦ yourself"✦
You don't have to prove shit to no one except✦ yourself✦
And if you end up needin'✦ some extra✦ help, then I could help
You know, back on your feet and shit
Tryna✦ get my karma✦ up, fuck the guilty✦ and greedy✦ shit
How much time is this nigga✦ spendin'✦ on the intro?✦
How this nigga✦ workin'✦ like he got a fuckin'✦ twin though?
Life is soundin' crazy,✦ 40 on Martin✦ Scorsese
And I wouldn't change a thing if you paid me
Now real nigga,✦ wassup?
Ayy, yeah, ayy
How much time is this nigga✦ spendin'✦ on the intro?✦
[Outro: Curtis Mayfield]
If there's✦ hell below,✦ I'll see you when you get there
Are you enjoyin' yourselves?
If we may, we would just like to close off with somethin' a bit inspirational✦
Hopefully something✦ a bit relevant as to us all are having✦ the same fears, shedding similar tears, and of course dying in so many✦ years
It don't mean that we can't have a good life
So we'd like to just maybe close out with something,✦ some food for thought, for all of us
