Drake feat. Nicki Minaj – Make Me Proud Song Words
Verse 1 – Drake
I like a woman with a future and a past
A lil’ attitude problem, all good, it’ll make sh-t last.
Don’t make it too easy, girl, don’t take it too fast,
Yeah, that’s it right there, that’s it, do it just like that,
Only you can do it just like that.
And I love it when your hair still wet ’cause you just took a shower,
Running on a treadmill and only eating salad.
Sound so smart like you graduated college,
Like you went to Yale but you probably went to Howard,
Knowing you, weekend in Miami tryna study by the pool,
Couple things due but you always get it done.
Might have been a time when I loved her too,
But you take that away and you’ll always be the one,
One, I wonder why the moon looks nice, girl,
Maybe it’s just right for the night.
You said n-ggas coming on too strong, girl,
They want you in their life as a wife,
That’s why you wanna have no sex, why you wanna protest,
Why you wana fight for your right,
‘Cause you don’t love them boys.
P-ssy run everything, f-ck that noise!
Chorus – Drake
I know things get hard, but, girl, you got it, girl,
You got it, there you go,
Can’t you tell by how they looking at you everywhere you go,
Wondering what’s on your mind, it must be hard to be that fine
When all these muthaf-ckers wanna waste your time.
It’s just amazing girl, and all I can say is,
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so proud of you,
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so proud of you,
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so proud of you!
Everything’s adding up, you’ve been through hell and back,
That’s why you’re bad as f-ck and you…
Verse 2 – Nicki Minaj
B-b-b-bet I am
All of them b-tches I’m better then.
Mansions in Malibu babblin’,
But I never mention everything I dabble in,
And I always ride slow when I’m straddlin’,
And my sh-t’s so wet you gotta paddle in,
Gotta ro-ro-row, gotta row ya boat,
It’s Pink Friday records and OVO,
Done did the pop tour, I’m the realest deal,
Best legal team, so the deals is ill,
It’s Mac, OPI and a fragrance too,
Apparel, I’m dominating every avenue.
Cobblestone, good view, lil’ gravel too,
Gotta pay for the entourage travel too,
‘Cause I’m fli-fli-fly, I’m flying high,
Ain’t got time to talk, just “hi” and “bye”.
Baby, you can ask me to take a break.
I’ll give it all away, don’t care what the people say.
I’ll be a million, billion, trillion miles away.
He asked my sign, I said, “A sag’!”
I’m a star, sheriff badge,
Whats the point? If I’m guardin’
Double D up hoes, Dolly Parton.
Chorus – Drake
I know things get hard, but, girl, you got it, girl,
You got it, there you go,
Can’t you tell by how they looking at you everywhere you go,
Wondering what’s on your mind, it must be hard to be that fine
When all these muthaf-ckas wanna waste your time.
It’s just amazing girl, and all I can say is,
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so proud of you,
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so proud of you,
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so proud of you!
Everything’s adding up, you’ve been through hell and back,
That’s why you’re bad as f-ck and you know you are.

Everything’s adding up, you’ve been through hell and back
Thats why you’re bad as f-ck and you know you are
