Songs Lyrics: Nicki Minaj

Dear Old Nicki

Maybe you died caus' everybody ask me where you at

I try to channel you and hopes that I could stare you back

But it's like every intersection we just missed each other

You got your fans waitin', tell me you ain't six feet under

And tell me that you're coming back and you just took a break

Maybe I blamed you for everything that was my mistake

And hindsight I loved your rawness, and I loved your edge

Caus' it was you who talked me down from jumpin' off the ledge

Your earrings bamboo, your long nails too, your BMW

Everytime you came through

You was the brave heart, you stole Wayne heart

You never switched up, you played the same part

But I needed to grow, and I needed to know

Were there some things inside of me that I needed to show

So I just deaded you, left you in all black

But dear old Nicki, please call back

You told me you'd come when I needed you

And you said it so sweetly I believed you

But I'm standing here calling, I can't see you

But I am holding you, holding you, holding you to that

Yo, did I chase the glitz and glamour, money, fame and power

Cause if so that will forever go down my lamest hour

I should have kept you with me, gettin' at them nameless cowards

They was no match for you, couldn't defeat your prowess

I had to make them changes, I hoped you understood

You see for every bad, I did a ton of good

But you was underground and I was main stream

I live the life now that we would daydream

My only wish is you come enjoy it with me

Get on them conference calls, go meet the lawyers with me

The money came yeah, tripled and quadrupled it

But I still miss us when we was just on some stupid shit

And it's still fuck the media

They ridiculed you, never believed in ya

They just debted you, left you in all black

But dear old Nicki, please call back

You told me you'd come when I needed you

And you said it so sweetly I believed you

But I'm standing here calling, I can't see you

But I am holding you, holding you, holding you to that

Other

And yes, I'm holding you, holding you, holding you

And yes, I'm holding you, holding you, holding you

And yes, I'm holding you, holding you, holding you

To that
