[Intro]

[Hook]
Work it out, work it out, rapper shawty tryna make it right (right)
Work it out, work it out, with the pen I love you, ain’t none above you I say
Work it out, work it out, when it comes to music, I feel attached but let’s say we
Work it out, work it out, would I have to quit the thing I love to please you?, what’s up
[Chorus]
I’ve been tryna work it out for the boy who ain’t never had a mic
Tryna give life to the beat like a mother (uh huh)
Work it out for the long time in a life (let's go)
In spite, girl, tryna work it out, be a lover (run, run, run, run)
Love and lyrics, you love hysterics, (run, run, run, run) I’m tryna write a spell just to feel your spirit (run, run)
(Ay, yuh, ay, yuh) Do you love my songs? Do you wanna hear it?, I love your heart but my career Kendrick I say

Straight through the storm like I’m Thor, ay (yuh)
