Nicki Minaj All Things Go
Yo, I had to reinvent, I put the V in vent I put the heat in vents, man, I been competin' since I look beyond what people sayin' and I see intent Then I just sit back and decipher what they really meant Cherish these nights, cherish these people Life is a movie, but there'll never be a sequel And I'm good with that, as long as I'm peaceful As long as seven years from now, I'm takin' my daughter to preschool Cherish these days, man, do they go quick Just yesterday, I swear it was '06 Ten years ago, that's when you proposed I looked down, "Yes, I suppose" All things go, all things go All things go, all things go I feel one minute, yeah, we got it, then it's gone While we keep waitin' for a moment to live for So can't nobody ever tell me that I'm wrong 'Cause I'ma ride out wit' you, still, the night is young And we keep goin', we go (We go, we go) We wake back up and do it all again (And we know, we know) Said, "Fuck the world, we ridin' 'til the end" When all is said and done, look what we've become (Oh, we go) I just want you to know that I did it for you I lost my little cousin to a senseless act of violence His sister said he wanted to stay with me, but I didn't invite him Why didn't he ask? Or am I just buggin'? 'Cause since I got fame, they don't act the same Even though they know that I love 'em Family ties broken before me Niggas tryna kill him, he ain't even call me And that's the reflection of me Yes, I get it, I get it was all me I'll pop a pill and remember The look in his eyes the last day he saw me All things go, all things go All things go, all things go I feel one minute, yeah, we got it, then it's gone While we keep waitin' for a moment to live for So can't nobody ever tell me that I'm wrong 'Cause I'ma ride out wit' you, still, the night is young And we keep goin', we go (We go, we go) We wake back up and do it all again (And we know, we know) Said, "Fuck the world, we ridin' 'til the end" When all is said and done, look what we've become (Oh, we go) I just want you to know that I did it for you Lemme make this clear: I'm not difficult, I'm just 'bout my business I'm not into fake industry parties and fake agendas Rock with people for how they make me feel, not what they give me Even the ones that hurt me the most, I still show forgiveness I love my mother more than life itself and that's a fact I'd give it all if somehow I could just rekindle that She never understands why I'm so overprotective The more I work, the more I feel like somehow they're neglected I want 'Caiah to go to college just to say, "We did it" My child with Aaron woulda been sixteen any minute So in some ways, I feel like 'Caiah is the both of them It's like he's 'Caiah's little angel lookin' over him And I know Jelani will always love me and I'll always love him And I'm just his little sister, not Nicki Minaj when I'm around him Gee, we did it, let's leave this imprint Just finished writin', this is The Pinkprint All things go, all things go All things go, all things go
