  • Today I missed my workout, but it worked out
    Now I'm missing work now, but it worked out
    Had to buy a crib, 'fore I bought my first house
    Had my first kid, I love how she turned out
    I love how she turned up, even if I'm burned out
    I'ma have so many seeds, I could have a birdhouse
    Send my love on they mama, I hope it work out
    I hope it work out

    Luckily, my ex ugly
    I don't eat, so she can't get no lunch with me
    I don't reach, so she can't get in touch with me
    Can't be buds with me
    Don't know what to be
    She gon' cuss at me
    Told her, "Give it a rest," so I keep custody
    Keep it all side-eyes and side-hugs with me
    I know that my girl's trust is a luxury
    I don't want my next album soundin' all Usher-y
    But I must confess, I must confess
    For every single ex, I want the best
    I really wish you nothing but success
    I know it's gonna work out

    Doesn't it get dark, right before the sun peaks
    And bears its face
    And doesn't it get so hard to breathe
    But it's gonna work out, it's gonna work out
    With nothing left to give, with nothing left to say
    When no one says they're wrong or sets the record straight

    But it's gonna work out (it's, it's, gonna work out)
    (It's gonna work out)

    That shit might hurt now, but I'm with her now
    Don't need closure now, just keep the shirt now
    Sorry you were led to believe (whew)
    Bunch o' different stories that was never to be (huh)
    No, you isn't ugly I just said it to be (ah)
    Funny, we both know that you look better than me
    Sorry I started runnin' when you ran into me (huh)
    I'm just tryna be the kinda man I'ma be
    And I'm getting better gotta hand it to me
    Seem to always workout when you hand it to G

    Today I missed my workout, but it worked out
    Now I'm missing work now, but it worked out
    Had to buy a crib, 'fore I bought my first house
    Had my first kid, I love how she turned out
    I love how she turned up, even if I'm burned out
    I'ma have so many seeds, I could have a birdhouse
    Send my love on they mama, I hope it work out
    I hope it work out

    I believe in long distance love
    God that's above
    Bond that's so strong can't let y'all bald headed-
    Y'all Interrupt, you all in a rush
    We all gon' meet up, in the up, in the upper room
    If I run into em', I'll be rum-running to em'
    We could re-run the show, we can re-bump into em'
    Maybe we read the wrong one, we could re-jump the broom
    If we read the wrong one, baby we jump the broom
    I'm ready to be groomed, I'm ready to assume
    The position is filled, I was read' since the womb
    I was not made for this, this was made for me
    And it's gonna work out

    Today I missed my workout, but it worked out
    Now I'm missing work now, but it worked out
    Had to buy a crib, 'fore I bought my first house
    Had my first kid, I love how she turned out
    I love how she turned up, even if I'm burned out
    I'ma have so many seeds, I could have a birdhouse
    Send my love on they mama, I hope it work out
    I hope it work out Writer/s: Chancelor Jonathan Bennett
