Wale - The Intro About Nothing Lyrics






[Wale:] Time to clock in, baby
[Jerry Seinfeld:] Yeah
[Wale:] You ready?
[Jerry Seinfeld:] Yes, I was ready last time
[Wale:] We gon' call this "The Intro About Nothing." It's gon' go like this:

[Hook:]
Lord, my all, what you think of it?
Been on this long road accumulating luggage
As time proceeds, preoccupied with everything
I think it's 'bout that I sing of nothing

Sipping wine, sipping wine, cause my Henny finished
Hard to be friendly with women who've seen too many niggas
So I keep my circle small, you need reduction
Never too much friends, what is your circumference?
I swear to God, times is hard, but they're getting better
Tryna enjoy every moment, but see we so competitive
Gubana made the level, and I never missed a supper
But still my hunger's like a fucking model at a buffet
I'm with these broads who in love, they ain't seen any better
But dollar signs never mind, and he keep a zero
And if my heart could speak, it would talk to freaks
And leave the room when a nigga try to sleep with 'em
Getting high, getting by, watching time fly
Tell my niggas, I'ma get 'em if they gon' ride
Young, wild nigga living the dream
Although I'm not who I'm destined to be
They keep saying, "Grow up"

[Hook]

I pray my girl don't turn to my baby mother yet
But in fact I do, I need by boo to keep my shit in check
And shit get easier when dreams of chasing respect
Get realized, and ain't no team invading your set
Getting high, getting by as my mind fly
Just bought my homie a Roley simply to pass time
And on top it's lonely so keep your homies right by your side
And if life is short then we'll be the shorts of the Fab Five
Severed ties with any nigga who covet mine
And all the stunting got me looking ugly in momma's eyes
But I gotta do it, these niggas need provocative music
And as a youth momma worked too much to have an influence
Rapping and music, a bunch of bitches acting too foolish
You gotta be stupid, even Tim Allen had him a tooly
Getting high, sitting down, thinking out loud
It's a shame niggas lame, but I'mma hold it down
Let my bread roll, never let my friends go
That's why I let these dreads grow, I'll never fit your fucking crown
Getting high, getting by, watching time fly
Tell these niggas I'mma get 'em every other time
Young, wild niggas sit in your seat
Know every weekend every liquor for free
With chilly roller for leaf, nothing so silly, bitch, I sow what I reap
Double M Genius, make these bitches so deep
I make these niggas' opinion on younger lyricists consistently weak
Put my cardio in the audio and you missin' the beat
I'm out, standing in every avenue, I'm good in the streets
Outstanding, shitting on niggas, but you sit when you pee
Hold up

I figure, they don't care nothing 'bout albums.
So why not give 'em an album about - [chuckles].
Hey, you better sing that shit, nigga.
This how you start the motherfucking show.
My fourth joint in a row.
The moon's in the motherfuckin' sky, all rise

[Hook]

    Damn I used to listen to this in 8th grade

  3. J.... G....

    That build up in the beginning 🔥🔥

  4. M.... R....

    Never understood why this album didn't receive the recognition it deserved. This album is a classic. Since this album has came out I've listened to it at least once every 3 months. This song in particular at least once a month. Plus Raphael Saadiq on the vocals 🔥🔥🔥🔥

    M.... R....

    Yea me extremely slept-on

    K.... M....

  7. I.... C....

    Talent, underrated, classic

  8. D.... D....

    Love the "Seinfeld"-themed album art on "The Album About Nothing."

  9. J.... P....

    “I’m with these broads who in love they ain’t seen better but dollar signs never mind and he keep a zero” some of my favorite wale lyrics. He’s so underrated

  10. F.... T....

    Sounds like he straight up stole chance the rapper's style

    F.... T....

    theajtruth wale was doing his thing long before chance stepped into the game. His style never changed. He’s always been on some real lyrical shit

    F.... T....

    Jake Parola it was proven he did already, talks about it in a interview.

    F.... T....

    What interview and time stamp?

  11. S.... D....

    This Song Is So Underrated!

  12. T.... J....

    That gospel chill

    T.... J....

    Yessssssss!!!!

  13. M.... D....

    One of the dopest songs I ever heard in my life!!!!!

    M.... D....

    I might have to agree hmmm let me think its u pl there

  14. K.... S....

    Intro about nothing and still this song is everything! 2017 gang

  15. j.... m....

  17. 3.... L....

    The honest to god definition of a masterpiece

    3.... L....

    FACTS!!

  18. D.... L....

    "That's why I let these dreads grow, I'll never fit your fucking crown"

    love this song so muuuuucccchhhh aggghhhhhhh, it's so deep and i love how he sings about the real happenings instead of the masquerades that people see and desire to be <3

  19. D.... ....

    feeling this joint !!!! heard it on survivors remorse!!!!!

  20. E.... H....

    Is it just me or does Wale sometimes have the exact same sound as J. Cole

    E.... H....

    Edevard Hvide it's just you but every time cole and wale get on a track together it's fire

  21. S.... C....

    just because you can be a god doesn't mean your haters can prove me wrong.. if you ketch my drift

  22. E.... H....

    Wale is extremely underrated. I discovered his true artwork on display during the release of "Ambition." That album spoke volumes, it had the creativity of multiple artist compacted into one artist. This album is in great comparison to the "Ambition" album, it offers a story line only a few fortunate souls may identify and articulate within minutes. The album starts off with his recognition being undermined and working hard for the accolades from those around him. The first song offers a undertone of a love story, with the true nature of him searching for admirations. The album ends with a love song, bringing everything back into full circle. I feel everyone should give this album a full thorough listen before coming up with an opinion about it; opinions change when taking each song for face value! Great job Wale, please continue to bless the music world with valuable works of art.

    -Erica (Houston, Tx)

    E.... H....

    Erica Hawkins exactly how I feel too. Must be a Houston thing.

    E.... H....

    I agree, this album and this song is a complete masterpiece.

  23. x.... 2....

    Quinn Cook

    x.... 2....

    yessss!

  24. R.... D....

    Everything about this is fuego from the lyrics to the background vocals and beat

  25. z.... ....

    You know an artist is good when they do a Seinfeld album.

  26. M.... S....

    what dope about this album is the logo is the same from seinfields and it was called "the show about nothing" which is like this album name so thats pretty cool

    M.... S....

    MR. SUPER he has 2 mixtapes about nothing if you didn't know

  27. H.... z....

    I love this because if you listen you hear the passion that put into this song

  28. D.... S....

    Picture Tupac on this track!! Not to take away from Wale.

    D.... S....

    Deidre SHAE sorry put Wale is a million times the poet pac was pac was good don't get wrong but he fit the mold Wale does not fit the mold of being a rapper

    D.... S....

    Deidre SHAE marry me
