Make Them Pay

Lyrics of Make Them Pay by Drake

Intro

(Free)

Yeah (free)

Hook

I just wanna be free

I just wanna be free

Free

Free

I just wanna be free

Verse

Yeah, look

Albany Marina, they done served us a hundred subpoenas

I done got my shit inside arenas like Gilbert Arenas

I remember lobster ravioli up at Serafina

I was in a Dream Hotel before I was in the loop, like a carabiner, yeah

Verse

And shout out to all the sweet tings from Willamina

Who tell me at the white party, "Drake, I love the album, man

Well, I mean, you′re kinda genius"

And like Dipset, they really mean it, yeah

I need compliments 'cause lately, it′s just falling-outs and disagreements

Verse

Industry is really evil

And I faced the way they paint me, but it hurts just like the Philly Eagles

LA love the sound, I could play a show for a million people

Don't be surprised, you see the whole YM in CA just like The Village People

These niggas measurin' they dick size in millimeters

I rack up a tab in Chanel ′cause I do buy everything like I′m Middle Eastern

But I realize it's gotta get a little deeper

Other than me talking ′bout the way I'm flippin′ dough like Little Caesars

Verse

I'm tryna catch one of you boys stargazin′ in the field like little leaguers, yeah

And ain't no passes for you Crip walkin', all of that diss talkin′, kiddo, beat it

I′m supposed to be my brother's keeper, so don′t make us hit another buzzer beater

And don't be suddenly eager to hit me up and have no discussions either

Now you gotta plan a meeting with me just like the Russian leader

And shake my fuckin′ hand in front of other people

Yeah, fuck the chatter

Verse

Since 2009, as I climb the ladder

They envy me like Nevada, but it never mattered

My niggas run a phone soon as you check into prison

Your niggas run and talk to Hov for a second opinion

Me, I stood ten toes and accepted the mission

'Cause I′d much rather death than submission

Verse

How can you press the ignition

And let some memories of the past affect your decision?

I love you 'cause of the history

But if we bein' real, I could never forgive you

And you never called me back, but destiny′s written, for real

Fuck a Big Three anyway, there was too many chefs in the kitchen

It was a mess to begin with, yeah

And now they got a new GOAT, and we gotta test the position

Verse

Damn, who is this guy for real?

I guess a magician

Hundred million streams vanished, no one got questions for niggas

Well, maybe I′m best as the villain

Verse

'Cause I got real numbers on niggas who say they got billions

I got all the chains that they ever repped in Virginia

I got niggas′ prized possessions, I get possessive on niggas

I am pressin' everything, I′ll get impressive on niggas

I got problems with people who I would've never dreamed

And that′s draggin' people in who don't wanna get in between

Dog, I was aidin′ Ross with streams before Adin Ross had ever streamed

And, Khaled, you know what I mean

Verse

The beef was fully live, you went halal and got on your deen

And your people are still waitin′ for a free Palestine

But apparently everything isn't black and white and red and green, damn

I′m seein' everyone′s true colors, for real, I'm sensin′ a theme

I'm greater than everybody like some shredded cheese

I was in Hazelton at The One before I was in the loop like a set of keys

Shout out to Cherokee Dee and Skyy Black

'Cause they was at my birthday when I was searchin′ big-booty ebonies, jeez

Verse

Now the penthouse in Bahamas is right next to Jordan like I′m Lebanese

And apparently niggas' souls is for sale like the seven seas

I gave you everything you ever need

But let me find out the Amex the only ones

That credit me for makin′ y'all everything you could never be

Verse

My sixth sense is kickin′ in

'Cause all I hear is people that are dead to me

And that′s why I'm turnin' on my read receipts

To let you know that everything that′s said to me will forever be stored in my memory

I′m better off independent

They should let him leave, yeah

Hook

'Cause I just wanna be free

Free, free, free

Free

I just wanna be free, free, free
