Thank Me Now

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 o-okay

You could thank me now

Uh, yeah

Well, alright

Here I go

Uh, Mahalo from the hardest act to follow

Lately, I've been drinkin' 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 could thank me now for all the info

I give to you ****

I'm on the brink of influential

I'm here for you ****

I guess a hit doesn't add up to a career for you ****

I must have been hard to watch

What a year for you ****

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 wanna party

Patron straight up

Fuck that old shit

I'm on new things

O.V.O 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 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 gotta AI him for your survival

Damn, I swear sports and music are so synonymous

'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

Y-you could thank me now

And, oh my goodness, you're welcome

You're welcome

At this point, me is who I'm tryna save myself from

Rappers hit me up, and I never know 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 **** 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

Y-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 o-okay

You could thank me now

Uh, shallow **** but deep enough to have gone swimmin'

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

I think 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 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 outta 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 allow

Where are they all now?

I know they're somewhere watching, so I'm tryna make 'em 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 that doors'll open up 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 A.T.F 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 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

Y-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 o-okay

You could thank me now

It's o-okay
