Pound CakeParis Morton Music 2 Lyrics - Drake

1 Good God Almighty, like back in the old days

2 You know, years ago they had the A&R men to tell you what to play

3 How to play it, and you know, whether it's disco or rock

4 But uh, we just went in the studio and we did it

5 We had champagne in the studio, of course, you know

6 Compliments of the, the company, and we just laid back and did it

7 So we hope you enjoy listening to this album half as much

8 As we enjoyed playing it for you, because we had a ball

9 Only real music is gonna last

10 All that other bullshit is here today and gone tomorrow

11 Cash rules everything around me, frikki-frikki-frik C.R.E.A.M

12 Get the-get the-get the-get the

13 Get the-get the-get the-get the money, dollar-dollar

14 D-d-d-d-dollar-dollar, dollar-dollar bill y'all (y'all, y'all)

15 Cash rules everything around me, C.R.E.A.M

16 Get the-get the-get the-get the-get the

17 Get the-get the-get the-get the mon-mon-money

18 Frikki-frikki-frikki, dollar-dollar-dollar bill y'all (y'all, y'all)

19 Yeah

20 Uh, after hours of Il Mulino

21 Or Sotto Sotto, just talkin' about women and vino

22 The contract like '91 Dan Marino

23 I swear this got Michael Rapinos boostin' my ego

24 Overly focused, it's far from the time to rest now

25 Debates growing 'bout who they think is the best now

26 Took a while, got the jokers out of the deck now

27 I'm holdin' all the cards and niggas wanna play chess now

28 I hear you talkin', say it twice so I know you meant it

29 Fuck it, I don't even tint it, they should know who's in it

30 I'm authentic, real name, no gimmicks

31 No game, no scrimmage, I ain't playin' with you niggas at all

32 My classmates, they went on to be chartered accountants

33 Or work with their parents, but thinkin' back on how they treated me

34 My high school reunion might be worth an appearance

35 Make everybody have to go through security clearance

36 Tables turn, bridges burn, you live and learn

37 With the ink, I could murder word to my nigga Irv

38 Yeah, I swear shit just started clickin' dog

39 You know it's real when you are who you think you are

40 Cash rules everything around me, frikki-frikki-frik C.R.E.A.M

41 Get the-get the-get the-get the

42 Get the-get the-get the-get the money, dollar-dollar

43 D-d-d-d-dollar-dollar, dollar-dollar bill y'all (y'all, y'all)

44 Cash rules everything around me, C.R.E.A.M

45 Get the-get the-get the-get the-get the

46 Get the-get the-get the-get the mon-mon-money

47 Frikki-frikki-frikki, dollar-dollar-dollar bill y'all (y'all, y'all)

48 Uh, I had Benzes 'fore you had braces

49 The all-black Maybach but I'm not a racist

50 Inside's whiter than Katy Perry's face is

51 Yellow diamonds in my Jesús

52 I just might learn to speak Mandarin

53 Japanese for the yen that I'm handlin'

54 International Hov, that's my handle

55 My saint's Changó, light a candle

56 El Gran Santo on the mantle

57 'Case y'all didn't know, I speak Spanish too, uh

58 Shout Out to World Wide Wes

59 Everywhere we go we leave a worldwide mess

60 Yes, still Roc La Familia

61 Says a lot about you if you not feelin' us

62 The homie said "Hov, there ain't many of us"

63 I told him less is more, nigga it's plenty of us

64 Cash rules everything around me, frikki-frikki-frik C.R.E.A.M.

65 Get the-get the-get the-get the

66 Get the-get the-get the-get the money, dollar-dollar

67 D-d-d-d-dollar-dollar, dollar-dollar bill y'all (y'all, y'all)

68 Cake, cake-cake, cake-cake, cake

69 500 million, I got a pound cake

70 Niggas is frontin', that's upside-down cake

71 Get 'em a red nose, they clown cakes

72 They shoulda never let you 'round cake

73 Look at my neck, I got a karat cake, uh

74 Now here's the icing on the cake

75 Cake, cake-cake, cake-cake

76 Uh, I'm just gettin' started, oh yeah, we got it bitch

77 I done made more millionaires than the lotto did

78 Dame made millions, Biggs made millions

79 Ye made millions, Just made millions

80 Lyor made millions, Cam made millions

81 Beans'a tell you if he wasn't in his feelings

82 Uh, I'm back in my bag

83 My eyes bloodshot but my jet don't lag

84 A pair of Jordan 3's tryna chase this cash

85 Gucci air bag just in case we crash

86 Uh, last night was mad trill

87 I'm fresh out of Advil, Jesus grab the wheel

88 Yeah uh

89 Look, fuck all that "happy to be here" shit that y'all want me on

90 I'm the big homie, they still be tryna lil' bro me dog

91 Like I should fall in line

92 Like I should alert niggas when I'm 'bout to drop somethin' crazy

93 And not say I'm the greatest of my generation

94 Like I should be dressin' different

95 Like I should be less aggressive and pessimistic

96 Like I should be way more nervous and less dismissive

97 Like I should be on my best behavior

98 And not talk my shit and do it major like the niggas who paved the way for us

99 Like I didn't study the game to the letter

100 And understand that I'm not doin' it the same, man, I'm doin' it better

101 Like I didn't make that clearer this year

102 Like I should feel, I don't know, guilty for saying that

103 They should put a couple more mirrors in here so I can stare at myself

104 These are usually just some thoughts that I would share with myself

105 But I thought "Fuck it", it's worth it to share 'em with someone else more than Paris for once

106 I text her from time to time, she a mom now

107 I guess sometimes life forces us to calm down

108 I told her that she could live with me if she need to, I got a compound

109 But I think she's straight

110 'Cause she supported since Hot Beats right before Wayne came and got me

111 Out of the backroom where I was rapping with Jas over beats that I shouldn't have

112 In the hopes for the glory

113 He walked right past in the hallway

114 Three months later I'm his artist

115 He probably wouldn't remember that story

116 But that shit stick with me

117 Always couldn't believe when he called me

118 You never know, it could happen to you

119 And I just spent four Ferraris all on a brand new Bugatti

120 And did that shit 'cause it's something to do, yeah

121 I guess that's just who I became, dawg

122 Nothing was the same, dawg
