Sex sells, shake it honey
Bouncing around the club like a playboy bunny
Sex sells, it pays to be a bitch
Be a dominatrix first
You gag them, then you whip
Sex sells, lights, camera, …

Ooh, woah, ooh

Don’t wake me up, it’s so surreal (So surreal)
Inside out, that’s how I feel (How I feel)

Ooh-ooh

Waking up in a loveless bed
Still hanging on the thing you said
Liar, walking on a war on fire
No one’s …

[Intro: Drake]
Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
[Chorus: Drake]
I know you been searchin’ for someone
To make you happy and get the job done
You said you needed a man with money
But I can’t be there, so will …
Oh right, oh
Oh why na-da-da-da
I keep my head high
I got my wings to carry me
I don’t know freedom1
I want my dreams2 to rescue me
I keep my faith strong
I ask the Lord to follow me3
I’ve been unfaithful
I don’t know why you call on me
This is my canvas
I’ma paint it how I want it4 baby, oh I
This is my canvas
I’ma paint it, paint it, paint it, how I want it nigga
Fuck you cause there
There is no right or wrong,5 only a song
I like to write alone, be in my zone6
Think back to Forest Hills, no perfect home
But the only thing like home I’ve ever known
Until they snatched it from my mama
And foreclosed her on the loan7
I’m so sorry that I left you there to deal with that alone8
I was up in New York City chasing panties, getting dome9
Had no clue what you was going through, how could you be so strong?10
And how could I be so selfish, I know I can be so selfish
I could tell by how I treat you with my girl
Damn she so selfless, but she put up with my way
Because she loves me like you do11
And though it don’t always show I love her just like I love you12
And I need to treat you better
Wish you could live forever, so we could spend more time together
(I love you mama)
I keep my head high
I got my wings to carry me
I don’t know freedom
I want my dreams to rescue me
I keep my faith strong
I ask the Lord to follow me
I’ve been unfaithful
I don’t know why you call on me
Apparently, you believe in me, you believe in me
Apparently, you believe in me and I thank you for it13
Another day another rhyme ho
Another day another time zone14
Today, I woke up feeling horny so it’s only right
I got two bitches playing on my trombone15
Keep up, never sure where the words would take me
Niggas eat em up, and regurgitate me16
Shit jumped tight never slurred it lazy
Give a virgin the urge to rape me17
Nigga please
Best friends really make great frenemies18
My watch came niggas can’t wait for one of these
I see you nigga, this ain’t no Rolex, it’s a AP nigga
I’m hot, dog, catch up to me nigga
Uh, couldn’t resist19
Aim for the stars and I shouldn’t have missed
But I was riding on fumes so I stopped by the moon20
Now I’m sitting on the hood of this bitch
Like thanks for the view
Waiting on thanks from a few cause without me you wouldn’t exist21
You know that shit gave you the blueprint don’t forget
Cole is your phone on zero percent
Going off, now niggas showing off
Niggas swear they hard but they flowing soft22
I’m taking off like boing on a big ass Boeing23
Getting head24 like a coin toss
Too easy
I keep my head high
I got my wings to carry me
I don’t know freedom
I want my dreams to rescue me
I keep my faith strong
I ask the Lord to follow me
I’ve been unfaithful
I don’t know why you call on me
Apparently, you believe in me, you believe in me
Apparently, you believe in me and I thank you for it
