Drake - Thank Me Now

Versuri Drake - Thank Me Now

[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:] 
my hollow from my heart is hard 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 
I’m 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 the resolutions, we just got reservations 
living out a dream, it feels like I stayed up 
and we just wanna party, patron straight up 
fuck 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 thats 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 that 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, thats how you know it’s going down 
in case another chance never comes around... 
 
[Chorus] 
 
[Verse 2:] 
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 thats 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 I’m the highest, 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 but 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 that this could be the last time you listen 
so while I’m still here in this position... 
 
[Chorus]
