Look As a thug I never needed help I was alone and by self Didn’t give a fuck what people had to say Because I will keep living my way Didn’t have no one Now look at me shining Bling bling with my diamonds On my own two feet I’m standing Wish a nigga would try me If you want smoke you dying I don’t give a fuck if your bitch cryin Do I need someone no I’m lying Yeah, look, as a thug I never needed help I rise above, never playing myself From the bottom to the top, I'm the one to admire I spit fire I am the dragon I navigate through the streets, like a real G My flow so cold, it's like an icy breeze I stay focused, never losing my sight Every move calculated, I'm shining so bright I'm a legend in the game, they can't deny The way I rhyme, it's like I'm touching the sky I hustle hard, always grinding for the win I'm the king of this rap game, let the games begin I'm a trendsetter, they tryna follow my steps But they can't match my style, I'm in a league of my own I keep it real, never fake, that's my code Drake, the rap god, I'm in control I'm the voice of the streets, they feel my pain Through my lyrics, I paint a picture, it's insane I've been through it all, the struggle and the strife But I stay strong, grinding every day of my life I'm a boss, I call the shots, I make the moves I'm on top of the game, I got nothing to lose I stay humble, never letting fame get to my head Drake, the legend, I'm the one they dread So remember my name, I'm here to stay No matter what they say, I'll pave my own way As a thug, I never needed help to rise Drake, the rap icon, forever in the skies.
