Thank Me Now lyrics

[Chorus]

You could thank me now, 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

Yeah

Well, alright

Here I go

[Verse 1]

Uh, Mahalo from the hardest act to follow

Lately I've been drinking like there's a message in a bottle

Alohas to women with no ties to men

That I know well, that way there are no lies

You can 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 your resolutions, we just got reservations

Living out a dream it feels like I stayed up

And we just want to 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 would have thought the route we'd chosen

Would ever end up this scenic?

I can relate to kids going straight to the league

When they recognize 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 got to A.I. him for your survival

Damn, I swear sports and music are so synonymous

Cause we want to be them, and they want to be us

So on behalf of the demanded and the entertainment

That you take for granted, you can thank me now

And oh my goodness you're welcome, you're welcome

At this point me is who I am 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, cause everyone here is good tonight

Except the niggas that I came with, they good for life

That's how you know it's going down

In case another chance never comes around...

[Chorus]

You could thank me now (Thank me now), 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 (You, you, you)

[Verse 2]

Uh, shallow nigga but deep enough to have gone swimming

I think I'm spending all my time with the wrong women

I think I'll have a chance at love and knowing me, I'll 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 are 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 lattes and low fat muffins?

Do I? Or is missing what we had out of the question?

I'm probably just the reason that you learned your lesson

I got flows for the Marilyn Monroes

Who was there before it all, I guess that's how it goes

They hear about your cons, but focus on your pros

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 allowed, where are they all now?

I know they're somewhere watching

So I'm trying to make them proud

Searching for the meaning, you'll find it next to me

They tell me I'm the hottest, guess we finally get to see

I'm feeling like Nas, who am I to disagree?

They say the doors will open up soon as you find the missing key

That'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 bandwagon's full but you can try and run behind it

I'm sorry

Poolside drinking, Margarita 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 a 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]

You could thank me now (Thank me now), go 'head (Go 'head)

Thank me later, yeah I know what I said (What I said)

But later doesn't always come so instead

It's okay, you could thank me now

It's okay (Okay)
