Pills N Potions
Nicki Minaj Lyrics

Pills and potions
The drugs and the remedies that we have been taking to deal with our problems.

We're overdosin'
We're taking too much of these pills and potions that's causing us more harm than good.

I'm angry but I still love you
Even though I'm upset with you, I still have love for you in my heart.

Can't stand it but I still love you
I can't bear the sight of your actions, but I still have feelings of affection for you.

I still love, I still love, I still love, I still love, I still lo-o-ove
Repeated assertion of the fact that despite everything happening, the love for the person is still present.

Ayo, they could never make me hate you
No one has the power to make me despise you.

Even though what you was doin' wasn't tasteful
Despite your actions being distasteful.

Even though you out here lookin' so ungrateful
Even though it seems like you're not appreciating what we have.

I'ma keep it movin' be classy and graceful
I will continue with my life without being bitter or resentful.

I told 'em it's no friends in the game, you ain't learned that yet
I have warned you that there are no real friends in the industry, but you haven't realized that yet.

All the bridges you came over, don't burn that yet
Don't sever the relationships and connections that have helped you get to where you are.

N***as want respect, but n***as ain't earned that yet
You can't demand respect when you haven't earned it yet.

Self-righteous and entitled but they swearin' on the Bible that they love you
People who have an inflated sense of self-worth and entitlement still claim to love you and swear by their love on the Bible.

When really they no different from all your rivals
In truth, they're no different from those who compete with you.

But I still don't wish death on 'em
Even though I don't approve of their actions, I don't wish for them to die.

I just reflect on 'em
I just ponder about their behavior.

Yo, people'll love you and support you when it's beneficial
People are only supportive and affectionate when it benefits them in some way.

I'ma forgive, I won't forget, but I'ma dead the issue
I'm going to forgive you for what you did, but I won't forget what happened, and I'm going to put the matter to rest.

Soon as you out a n****s' lives is when they start to miss you
People start to appreciate your presence when you're no longer around.

They see you doin' good, now it's kinda hard to diss you
Now that you're successful, it's difficult for others to speak ill of you.

N****s be sick when they remember all the bad they wished you
People start to feel remorseful when they remember all the negative things they wished for you.

N****s be mad when they can't come and live lavish with you
People become angry when they're unable to enjoy the luxuries that you possess.

But I sped off in the Benzy
But I left in my Mercedes-Benz.

I see the envy when I'm causin' a frenzy
I can see the jealousy in people's eyes when I'm the center of attention.

So I pop pills for 'em
I take drugs to deal with the stress that comes with being famous.

Cop cribs in the hills on 'em
I buy houses in the hills to show them that I'm successful now.

I get high off your memory
I become emotionally overwhelmed with memories of you.

In due time we'll be fine
We will be okay eventually.
