6PM In New York Lyrics - Drake

1 Yeah, oh you gotta love it

2 Oh you got, oh you gotta love it

3 I heard what circulated, let's get to the bottom of it

4 I told 1da send me something and I got it covered

5 Somehow always rise above it

6 Why you think I got my head in the clouds on my last album cover?

7 The game is all mine and I'm mighty possessive

8 Lil Wayne could not have found him a better successor

9 Every shot you see them take at me? They all contested

10 Allen Iverson shoe deal, these niggas all in question

11 Last night I went to sleep, wanted more

12 Tried to decide what direction I should go towards

13 Some nights I wish I could go back in life

14 Not to change shit, just to feel a couple things twice

15 28 at midnight, wonder what's next for me

16 Longevity, wonder how long they'll check for me

17 Prolly forever if I stay in my zone

18 I speak on this generation but can't change it alone

19 I heard a lil lil homie talking reckless in Vibe

20 That's quite a platform you chose, you shoulda kept it inside

21 Oh you tried

22 It's so childish calling my name on the world stage

23 You need to act your age and not your girl's age

24 It gets worse by the annual my career's like a how to manual

25 So I guess it's understandable man

26 Oh you gotta love it, you gotta love it cheer

27 I know rappers that call Paparazzi to come and get 'em

28 To show they outfits off, guess they need the attention

29 I remember when it used to be music that did it

30 But then again times have changed man, who are we kiddin'?

31 I'm managed by my friends that I grew up with

32 I'd rather give that 15% to people I fuck with

33 If me and Future hadn't made it with this rappin'

34 We prolly be out in Silicon tryna get our billions on

35 But here we are, yeah

36 Lately I feel the haters eatin' away at my confidence

37 They scream out my failures and whisper my accomplishments

38 Bitches alter my messages like we have words

39 And stories 'bout my life hit the net like a bad serve

40 Bitter women I'm overtextin' are PMSing crazy this year

41 Fuckin' with my image

42 I've been tryna reach the youth so I can save 'em this year

43 Fuck it I guess I gotta wait til next year

44 And I heard someone say something that stuck with me a lot

45 Bout how we need protection from those protectin' the block

46 Nobody lookin' out for nobody

47 Maybe we should try and help somebody or be somebody

48 Instead of bein' somebody that makes the news

49 So everybody can tweet about it

50 And then they start to RIP about it

51 And four weeks later nobody even speaks about it

52 Damn, I just had to say my piece about it

53 Oh you gotta love it

54 But they scared of the truth so back to me showin' out in public

55 That's a hotter subject

56 I've been whippin' Mercedes and nigga try to budget

57 I gotta make it back to Memphis to check on my cousins

58 Shout out to Ashley, Tasha, Biama, Julia, Ericka, Southern America

59 Part of my heritage, pardon my arrogance, part in my hair again

60 That's that comeback flow, comeback flow

61 Once I start it's apparent

62 I'm with girl whose ass is so big that's partly embarrassin'

63 But fuck all the blushin' and fuck your discussions

64 And fuck all the judgement

65 Your content so aggressive lately, what's irkin' you?

66 Shit is gettin' so personal in your verses too

67 I wanna prove that I'm number one over all these niggas

68 Bein' number two is just being the first to lose

69 My city dictated music, nobody seein' us

70 Winter here already but somehow I'm heatin' up

71 Been observin' the game and felt like I've seen enough

72 Let's drop a tape on these niggas then we'll see what's up

73 Yeah, boy you rappin' like you seen it all

74 You rappin' like the throne should be the three of y'all

75 "Best I Ever Had" seems like a decade ago

76 Decadent flow and I still got a decade to go

77 Oh please, take it ease, where's the love and the peace

78 Why you rappin' like you come from the streets?

79 I got a backyard where money seems to come from the trees

80 And I'm never ever scared to get some blood on my leaves

81 Phantom slidin' like the shit just hit a puddle of grease

82 I cook the beef well done on the double with cheese

83 Special order for anybody that's comin' for me

84 Shit you probably flinch if somebody sneeze

85 You see they got me back talkin' like it's just 40, Oli, and me

86 Cuttin' all loose ends, I be the barber for free

87 I'm almost at four minutes going off on the beat

88 Feel like I'm in the Malibu that had the cloth on the seats

89 Man, oh you gotta love it

90 And on top of that it's getting harder to eat

91 Rappers downgrading houses

92 Putting cars on the lease

93 To think labels said they had a problem marketing me

94 And now it's everybody else that's getting hard to believe

95 Oh you gotta love it

96 And head to toe I'm Prada covered

97 I know your girl well, just not in public

98 Blame the city, I'm a product of it

99 Young nigga from the city

100 You gotta love it
