Thank You lyrics

[Verse 1]

As the crowd dies down, screamin' and appalause

As a bad broad opens the envelope

Lemme straighten up my tie that I worked so hard for

Already got my speech, cause this is my award

Like, thank you for the love and every look I get

Thank you to my last girlfriend cause she a bitch

She never held me down, so thank you for the lift

Cause I know she lookin' out like

Thank you to the Northline Streets where I live

Since before I got big, before they shot B.I.G

Thank you to my grandma for keeping me in line

Thank you to my momma cause she never stopped tryin'

Snatched me outta public school to keep me outta trouble

Paid for private school and picked up another hustle

Thank you for every wrong turn I made in life

Just remember, 3 lefts is the same as goin' right

As I'm goin' down this, thank you cause this is very long

Thank you for this award, that I've just won

If you goin' me you are only with some important

You know who the best is, know it all, craigslist

Hah, oh yeah I stretched out, stretched in

Checked out, checked in, sexed out, sextin'

Hey, I always was the best man

Could never had a bride cause I'm fuckin' all the best friends

Last but not least

Thank you for the rappers who all let me share a beat

Put their verse on it, thought that shit was sweet

Then I put my verse on it and I made 'em sound weak

I'm living off recordin', I hope that they recordin'

AV watch be worth a fortune, Ferrari Lambo Porsche and

Livin' dreams out of proportions, yeah bottle after bottle

But I never left the cork in, and you can't have a portion

Thank you to the devil, for tryna' bring me down

Thank you man to Kanye for bring me around

And tryna cut me off short, and run me off stage

So if you didn't hear your name, it doesn't mean I changed

Thank you to the metropolitan colleges I was rockin' with

Means more to me than oxygen, honestly, on some honest shit

Doin' them shoes, wasn't gettin' money

Still got by though, puttin' in budgets

Hell yeah, nigga, full of Benjamin hundreds

Niggas die young, Benjamin Button

I'm gone
