Drake - The Winner lyrics

I'm performin' tonight you know that sh** gon' be packed Pay me in advance and make sure that it's exact My ex girl I'll probably show up for the simple fact That tomorrow she can tell all of her friends it was whack But f** that though, this about me They say my whole fan base is missing I.D. But the young trend setting musician I be Got critics giving up the recognition I de-serve Never bring yo' misses By me I'm it I'm it call me Mr. I.T. If I get one wish Imma wish to die free They say gon' head, ball like Mrs. Ivory, And I do The realest in my age group, no sh** Soho, Cosmo, Bah Mar blow fish? Let's make a toast, tell yo' friends come closer Drinks on me like a coaster We doin' it big Look at what I done Look at where I'm is It's only just begun 'Cause I was staying home When they was having fun So please don't be surprised when they announce that I won And this is how my speech goes I deserve this sh**, I deserve this sh**, I deserve this sh** That's all I got to say, at the top is where I stay And tell my haters never go away The Winner Long awaited, hated Fans see me out and they holla happy belated It's about time that you made it I was bumping yo' songs when nobody else played it When I was up in Hot Beat in Atlanta steady giving daps Fetching n***as drinks but I never got to rap If anybody asked though I prolly woulda snapped But I can't sign nothing 'til my lawyer get the fax and No one decides who the definition of talent is And Mrs. Murry look at what my talent did And what yo' business is It's been a couple years Guess it's not about who you know, it's just how you balance it Its always awkward to dummy a n***a artist And get on someone song when you know you comin' the hardest It's how you start actin' when nobody can reach ya My plan just hatched, happy Easter I'm doin' it big Look at what I done Look at where I'm is It's only just begun 'Cause I was staying home When they was having fun So please don't be surprised when they announce that I won And this is how my speech goes I deserve this sh**, I deserve this sh**, I deserve this sh** That's all I got to say At the top is where I stay And tell my haters never go away The Winner Uhh, ok I do it for the love Bunk bed flow, always one level above If I'm in ya starting five you will never need a sub And I'm neva looking down so I always know wa**up.
