What to Do
Greg A. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Been goin in since 8th grade
Called longshot like Devin Wade
Felt the love felt the hate
Felt the grace felt the shame
Now I’m known for throwing shade
If you come around just be afraid
Nah I’m just playin’ like an arcade
My team out here like a blockade
Goin’ hard on this track (Aye)
Feelin’ sharp like a tack (Aye)
God got me so
I’m never goin back (Aye)
Really givin’ daps (Aye)
Tryin’ out this trap (Aye)
Haters call this crap (Aye)
But I know it slaps (Yah)
I’m goin out my mind now
They tried to count me out
I got no time for the fakes now
Imma do what I do
Imma do what I do
Imma do what I do
Imma do what I do
Imma do what I do
Put in the work no off day’s
Slice the beat guess I slay
Feelin’ shady so call up Sway
Hit my knees when i need to pray
G feelin’ eazy like the bay
Bars no limit when I spray
Guess it’s time to get off the bench and show I ain’t here to play
I dropped my album it was aight
But these new tracks got me hype
Sub genre I ain’t gotta type
I’m just doin’ what I know (Doin’ what I know)
We bout to blow
We doin shows
We gonna grow
Strike a pose
The bass hit hard like Bose
I think I said that before
I’m doin what I do (Doin’ what I do)
Ain’t nothing you can say (Nothing you can say)
Just know if you in my lane
You better make a way (Better make a way)
I’m goin insane (Goin’ insane)
Look inside my brain (Brain brain)
It’s full of big thoughts
But my soul ain’t being bought, nah
I’m goin out my mind now
They tried to count me out
I got no time for the fakes now
Imma do what I do
Imma do what I do
Imma do what I do




Imma do what I do
Imma do what I do

​@Leeloo_the_fox You can be his buddy without cheats. It's extremely easy, depending in what you want him to do. This guide focused on curing him of werewolfism, which I don't think is possible w/out cheats.

All you need to do is visit his house, investigate the signs to summon him, and attempt to communicate with him multiple times. That will eventually open up other interactions, and you can slowly friend (or seduce) him. If you leave the moonwood and return, your friendship will probably have reset with him the next time you see him, so you have to repeat all above steps.

He usually won't show up in your relationship panel, unless he's attacked you and you despise each other. Just look at the forgetting you thing as part of his curse, in that he has 100% wolf brain and doesn't recognise you. If you cheat reset him it will also reset your pie menu with him.

If you visit him as a werewolf, he will attack you on sight. Idk about Vampires, probably the same. He is more than okay with Spellcasters and regular Sims, trust me on that one lmaooo.

He's an npc. He's gonna do npc stuff and be different from normal sims. Ergo, cheat adding him to your household is likely the only way to cure him of his condition.
