The Thing Lyrics by RiTchie

Triple Digits [112]

2024

[Intro: RiTchie]
Dan-dan-dan, dan, oh
Do-do, do-do
It's the petty shit, huh?

[Verse 1: RiTchie]
It be the—, it be the things that just grind all your bones
It be the things that just nobody knows (Things you do, you do)
Yeah
How many ways could a nigga say "No"?
How many days can I take all these blows?
Shit, you prolly don't know (And on you move)
It be the things you don't let in your home
It be the things that just rotten your soul (Rot your soul)
Shit, they rotten your soul (How many?)
How many things you let stop all your flow?
How many things you let block all the dough? (Block your dough)
Shit, you prolly don’t know (They do)
It be the things that nobody knows
It be the things that stunt all your growth
It really stings, but don't let it show (It be the things that)
You hearin' things, but it's down on the low
Don't real me in shit, I don’t wanna know
Don't mix my shit in with all that you broke (They break you)
Do things likе stubbin' your toe
It really stings, but don't let it show
Or whеn see that, nobody knows
Not anything, but knockin' on doors
Or knockin', knockin' them boots
These things they cook on the low
And fill you up, up until you explode
Now everything's fucked (That's all the things you do, you do)

[Verse 2: Quelle Chris]
I was thinkin', you know?
The thoughts, all the things we do for kudos and props
Bro, the back is achin', it hurts a lot (Lot)
Feats of fascination leaps from the top
Look, ma', no hands (Look, ma', no hands)
Check on your fam', check on your folks, feels like the end (End)
Roll the cred's, present the fin', poppin' meds
Just for the grins, just for a smile, if just for a while
'Cause feelin' good don't ever go outta style
And being hood is exhausting, bein' high brow is costly
White folks ancestors really made a mess of things
And all this pressure just to make the means
Post on socials just to make believe
Maybe magic, maybe Maybelline?
Somebody told me being lonely is my brand, that made me laugh (Ha-ha-ha)
Y'all niggas funny

[Bridge: Quelle Chris, Quelle Chris & RiTchie, & RiTchie]
Things we do for love and money
Things we do for love and money
Things we do for love and money
Things we do for love and money
Things we do for love and money
Things we do for love and money
Things we do for love and— (That's all the things you do, you do)

[Outro: Son & Dad]
Wow, dad, you really got me the One Thing Machine?
That's right, son
Infinite ideas for instant gratification
Go ahead, try one
Eat an entire bag of party sized cool ranch— (No)
Call your mom, tell her you love her (Eh)
Compare and contrast where you are in life
With where you thought you would be at the age of seven years old
Examples being: Interpersonal relationships, mental and physical health
Financial stability, career aspirations
Some may find it helpful to look at the status of one's peers
Or even those that one has never met in their entire life
Alright, I got this (That's all the things you do, you do)
