Aaliyah Nicole - Do What They Can't Do

I'ma do what they can't do
I'ma do my thing, smoke my weed
I'ma do what they can't do, that's be me
(Man, this shit gon' slap)

See, the truth is I've been at this for a while now
Fifteen years on this grind, and they starting to doubt now
You really think you gon' make it Slick, you pushing thirty?
You've been on this pipe dream since you was smelling dirty

Coming in the house smelling like outside
Now I'm old enough to know what it smell like
Still tryna get home before the street lights
Come on

But if you ever heard me spit, you know I'm made for this
Even got fans laughing at my jokes and shit
Before he died, I told Rick I'ma go after it
And my parents still waiting on me to make 'em rich, so

I know I gotta keep on going
Embracing this journey, even when I don't wanna
Yeah, life can get you down, that shit'll make you crumble
But put me in the game, and I bet I won't fumble though

I'ma do what they can't do
(What they can't do) and that's be me
(And that's be me) I'ma do my thing
Smoke my weed, sip my drink

I'ma do what they can't do
(What they can't do) and that's be me
(And that's be me) I'ma do my thing
Roll my tree, smoke my dank

While they be hating, I be hearing them
Dead silent when I win, I guess the fear in them
They see the people taking notice, and it's killing them
But it's been blood, sweat and tears and some years in this

See, I'm a boss, you can't touch my level
I'm the type to put despair in the devil
Y'all keep me laughing like a comedy special
(Funny ass niggas)

But you can miss me with that 'fu shit
I'm just focused on dropping all my new shit
A reminder to the doubters that I do this
Guaranteed this time gon' be ruthless (what?)

My baby said she want some Ruth's Chris
Gotta get to this bag and secure it
So she can dine where she want, she can have what they don't
I got the Ace of Spades, I can't lose it

I'ma do what they can't do
(What they can't do) and that's be me
(And that's be me) I'ma do my thing
Smoke my weed, sip my drink

I'ma do what they can't do
(What they can't do) and that's be me
(And that's be me) I'ma do my thing
Roll my tree, smoke my dank

I'ma do what they can't do
(What they can't do) and that's be me
(And that's be me) I'ma do my thing
Smoke my weed, sip my drink

I'ma do what they can't do
(What they can't do) and that's be me
(And that's be me) I'ma do my thing
Roll my tree, smoke my dank
