[Chorus: Drake]

Look, if you a girl with the aspirations

Of being in the background with your asses shakin'

Hittin' clubs and skippin' out on the class you takin'

I ask you to have some patience

(You're worth so much more)

To my dudes at the bar with a freak and

Steady lightin' cigars at the parties they sneak in

And look forward to being a star on the weekend

Ya'll part of the speech 'cause

[Verse 1: Drake]

I'm from the city where

People be gettin' lazy, litterin' in the streets

And the club district is poppin' like literally every week

And promoters'll push flyers, money exchange hands

Liars sell you they dreams and dummies exchange plans

Hustlers give you events, bouncers give you pass

Directors give em a shot, so girls'll give up the ass

And groupies that would flock to hometown athletes

And start rolling together like Snoopy and Woodstock

Daffy and Bugs, its all laughing and hugs

Til the dude catch a plane and she back where she was

Right back on the bus, it's a shame cause now

At his window she throwin' bricks like Shaq in the clutch

You can see that's shes colder 'cause he doesn't hold her

Fall flat on the ground trying ta lean on his shoulder

Know that he tried ta told her that he couldn't mold her

If this the type of chick you wanna be when you older, I say

[Chorus: Drake]

If you a girl with the aspirations

Of being in the background with your asses shakin'

Hittin' clubs and skippin' out on the class you takin'

I ask you to have some patience

(You're worth so much more)

To my dudes at the bar with a freak and

Steady lightin' cigars at the parties they sneak in

And look forward to being a star on the weekend

Ya'll part of the speech 'cause

[Verse 2: Drake]

Now up north there's five artists deservin' a listen

And I'm one of em, the other four you know who you are

But if you gotta think through chances are that it ain't you

I single-handedly carry out what you can't do

And see I take a couple of breathers

And then things come together on the spot like a couple that's eager

If you wanna pack a duffel and leave her

Go ahead, I couldn't give two damns like a couple of beavers

But uh, the in & the out and the plan's seeming ill

Whenever I'm out in Memphis the man seen as trill

And every verse the man seem to kill

You can find him with black jays and socks like I'm Andreena mill

Japan and Brazil, the audience screaming

And then you come around and all the fans seems to chill

Advances to deals, financing appeals

The hustles, I have you feeling like you dancing in heels and uh

[Chorus: Drake]

Look, if you a girl with the aspirations

Of being in the background with your asses shakin'

Hittin' clubs and skippin' out on the class you takin'

I ask you to have some patience

(You're worth so much more)

To my dudes at the bar with a freak and

Steady lightin' cigars at the parties they sneak in

And look forward to being a star on the weekend

Ya'll part of the speech 'cause
