[Chorus: Drake]

This shit was all I knew, you and me only

I did it all for you, still you were lonely

We could've worked it out, uh, but I guess things change

It's funny how someone else's success brings pain

When you're no longer involved, that person has it all

And you just stuck standin' there but

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby

Say-say something, baby

Say something, babe, say something

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby, ohh-whoa


[Verse 1: Timbaland]

Yeah, it really sucks, but ever since I’ve been long gone

I traded in my señorita for a microphone

I hate the way you fell apart, girl, it's sad to see

Your life is good, but me and you, we a catastrophe

If I was unsuccessful, would you be satisfied?

I need a paramedic girl, I’m feeling paralyzed

If I could choose, you will always be a friend to me

The more money I made you acting like my enemy, it's crazy

I can’t help it if you feel ashamed

Thought the pressure would turn you into my diamond babe

How can something so familiar be so strange

Closest friends get estranged when the status change, huh?

Is it my mistake, thinking that where I am and where you at?

And my homeboy Larry Live is the only one that had my back

You were the perfect pair and now it seems that we don’t match

Is it the money, want me to give it back?


[Chorus: Drake]

This shit was all I knew, you and me only

I did it all for you, still you were lonely

We could've worked it out, uh, but I guess things change

It's funny how someone else's success brings pain

When you're no longer involved, that person has it all

And you just stuck standin' there but

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby

Say-say something, baby

Say something, babe, say something

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby, ohh-whoa


[Verse 2: Drake]

Uh! I am the topic of conversation, this is celebration

Let's toast to the fact that I've moved out my mama's basement

To a condo downtown, 'cause it's all about location

I sit and drink wine and watch Californication, to life

You shoulda been here to kick it with me

We could have split this whole thing up 50/50

But now I'm at the 40-40 getting bitches tipsy

Killing shit, the ever-so talented Mr. Ripley

How I go from being the man that you argue with

To me and Dwayne Carter putting out the hardest shit

I should wanna go back to the one I started with

But I'm addicted to this life, it's gon' be hard to quit

Yeah, just ask me how things are coming along

You could tell me that you've never heard none of my songs

Long as you end up saying one day you plan to listen

'Cause what's a star when it's most important fan is missing?


[Chorus: Drake]

This shit was all I knew, you and me only

I did it all for you, still you were lonely

We could've worked it out, uh, but I guess things change

It's funny how someone else's success brings pain

When you're no longer involved, that person has it all

And you just stuck standin' there but

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby

Say-say something, baby

Say something, babe, say something

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby

I'm gon' need you to say something, baby, ohh-whoa
