Say Something
Drake ft. Lupe Fiasco Lyrics

This shit was all I knew
My life used to revolve around you

You and me, only
We were all I had

I did it all for you
Everything I did was for us

Still, you were lonely
But you still felt alone

We can work it out
But we can fix it together

Uhh, But I guess things change
But I guess things don't stay the same

It's funny how someone else's success brings pain
It's ironic how success can hurt

When you're no longer involved
When you're no longer with the person

That person has it all
That person seems to have everything

You just stuck standin' there
While you're left standing still

I'm gonna need you to say something, baby
I need you to speak up

Say say something, baby, say something, baby, say something, baby
Please just say something

Yeah, it really sucks whenever since I’ve been long gone
It's painful to see how things turned out since I left

I traded in my senorita for a microphone
I chose my career over our relationship

I hate the way you fell apart girl, its sad to see
I don't like how you've been since we ended things

Your life is good but me and you we're a catastrophe
We were bad for each other, even though your life is good now

If I was unsuccessful would you be satisfied
Would you be happy if I didn't achieve anything?

I need a paramedic girl, I’m feeling paralyzed
I need help, I feel stuck

If I could choose, you will always be a friend to me
If I had a choice, I'd want us to be friends

The more money I made you acting like my enemy
The more successful I got, the more you seemed to dislike me

It's crazy, I can’t help it if you're really ashamed
It's crazy, but it's not my fault if you're embarrassed of me

All the pressure would turn you into my diamond babe
The pressure we faced made you stronger

How can something so familiar be so strange
How can something that used to be so familiar feel so different?

Closest friends get estranged when the status change
Even close friends can grow apart when things change

Ah, is it my mistake, think that where I am and where you at
Is it my fault that I've moved on and you haven't?

And my homeboy Larry Live is the only one that had my back
Only my friend Larry supported me through this

You were the perfect girl, now it seems we don’t match
You used to be perfect for me, but now we don't work

Is it the money, want me to give it back?
Is it about the money? Do you want me to give it up?

I am the topic of conversation
People are talking about me

This is celebration
This is a good thing

Let's toast to the fact that I've moved out my mama's basement
Let's celebrate the fact that I've made it on my own

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

I'm sitting, drink wine and watch Californication of life
I'm relaxing and enjoying my success

You should have been here to kick it with me
You should've been here to celebrate with me

We could have split this whole thing up, fifty fifty
We could've shared in this success together

But now I'm at the forty forty getting bitches tipsy
But now I'm at the club, partying with other women

Killing shit, the ever so talented Mr. Ripley
I'm killing it, I'm the talented Mr. Ripley

How I go from being the man that you argue with
How did I go from arguing with you to being successful?

To me and Dwayne Carter putting out the hardest shit
To making the best music with Lil Wayne

I should want to go back to the one I started with
I should want to go back to where it all began

But I'm addicted to this life, it's gonna be hard to quit
But I'm addicted to this lifestyle, it'll be hard to give it up

Yeah, just ask me how things are coming along
Just ask me about my progress

You could tell me that you've never heard none of my songs
You could say you've never listened to my music

As long as you end up saying one day you plan to listen
But I hope that one day you'll listen to my music

'Cause what's a star when it's most important fan is missing?
What's the point of being a star when the person who matters most isn't there to support you?
