GIMME A HUG Lyrics by Drake

[Verse 1]

Yeah, Drake elimination, fake intimidation

Take a minute, take a deep breath, have a little bit of patience

"Drizzy, you amazin', you the inspiration

You set the bar for the next generation"

You Neo in the matrix, these niggas just Nemo in the ocean

Small fish, making kids feel emotion

Using you for promotion, truer words had never been spoken

Niggas want to see RIP me on a t-shirt like I'm Hulk Hogan

I appreciate the fans rocking with me, this is really just a small token

Really fuckin' with a visionary

Only reason I ain't got a girl and I ain't gettin' marriеd

'Cause I'm really out herе, filling up the itinerary 'til I'm six feet in a cemetery

Bulletproof doors so heavy, got me rollin' 'round like a dignitary

Funny how it's only bitch niggas that are waiting on the boy's obituary

'Cause if I die, it's these niggas that become the sole beneficiary

And what the fuck are they gon' do with it?

Have the girls up at 29 on stage twerkin' with a dictionary?

Guilt trips, not Turks trips when it's cold out here in February

'Cause right now, shorty parachuting molly like she flying for the military

This girl face so pretty, I can only think of fuckin' missionary

[Verse 2]

Fuck that, make the beat switch, turn the hoes up, give a million to 'em

Right now, I got so many villas booked, I'm like a villain to 'em

Durk's boy told me "Marvin's Room" was his favorite song, he was drilling to it

Thousand niggas rappin' murder shit and like ten niggas that'll really do it

Savage, you the only nigga checkin' on me when we really in some shit, brother

Melyssa Ford, you a legend from the 6ix, hate to see you with a dick-sucker

Shit about to be a lit summer, tell Tony leave the motor runnin'

Tell Mike that the ceiling's too low in Booby, how we supposed to throw a hundred?

Damn

They be droppin' shit, but we be droppin' harder shit (Droppin' harder shit)

Fuck a rap beef, I'm tryna get the party lit

Tryna get the party lit for the bitches

Them Nike tights is huggin' on that ass like they missed it

What's up?

Niggas is hating the boy for sure, the women in love

Walk in the strip club, damn, I missed you hoes, give me a hug

Give me a hug, give me a hug, give me a hug, give me a hug

Drake

[Verse 3]

Yeah, I know that you work in the club

Know that these people might judge

But fuck it, you family to us

So come over here and give me some love

Yeah, give me a hug

I miss you hoes, give me a hug

Give me a hug, give me a hug

What can I say? I miss you girls, I'm stuck in my ways

Princess, Gigi, Pooh, Pink, Luxury, y'all gotta come to the stage

Yeah, come to the stage and show me some love

You know how I'm comin', I'm giving it up

The niggas in here ain't spendin' enough

[Outro]

Bae, I miss you

I'm talkin' to you, baby, I miss you

You, you, you, you, you

Yeah
