[Chorus]
Hush, hush, baby, you don't have to cry
I'm not sorry, but I lied
It feel a little bit better when you close your eyes, cl-close your eyes
Hush, hush, baby, you don't have to cry
I know you hate me 'cause I'm right
Just close your eyes, this is my
M-m-m-my lullaby-by-by-by-by

[Verse 1: Lil Wayne]
(Hush, hush)
Uh, I tell her I'm workin', I'm not with these hoes
Yeah, she say, "You better be workin' and not with these hoes" (Hush, hush)
I tell her what she wanna hear, not what she don't wanna know
She tell me, "Be quiet and ride me slow, like they got bumps in the road" (Hush, hush)
Look, what you don't know won't hurt your ass
Girl, 'cause if you knew better, you'd do better, yeah, whatever, shit (Hush, hush)
I tell you "I'm here" when I'm there and "I don't" when I do
And you just want me to tell all of the bitches I care for it's all about you

[Pre-Chorus: Lil Wayne]
And I get that, so when I'm with them, I just hit that
I don't even kiss back, my white lies are pitch black, believe that
And I ain't proud of myself, I can't lie to myself
I said, "Self, gather yourself," and left her cryin' by herself, whoa

[Chorus: (Lil Wayne)]
Hush, hush, baby, you don't have to cry
I'm not sorry, but I lied
It feel a bit better when you close your eyes, cl-close your eyes
Hush, hush, baby, you don't have to cry
I know you hate me 'cause I'm right
Just close your eyes, this is my (You met me this way, baby)
M-m-m-my lullaby

[Verse 2: Lil Wayne]
(Hush, hush)
Uh, I tell her, "Don't worry, it's not 'bout them hoes"
She just be hopin' whenever I'm worried, it's not 'bout them hoes (Hush, hush)
Uh, she act like my stories are not gettin' old
But I know she'd rather hear what I tell her, not what she not bein' told (Hush, hush)
Okay, I lied to you 'cause the truth hurts
And it hurts me too, I would cry with you but I gotta work, I gotta work (Hush, hush)
She say, "You better be workin' and not with these hoes"
But I drive 'em so crazy like I got the wheel on the wide-open road

[Pre-Chorus: Lil Wayne]
And I zig-zag, and when I'm with them, I just hit that
We don't even kickback, chit-chat, nor chillax, believe that
And I ain't proud of that shit, I can't lie about that shit
I say, "Self, snap out this shit," and left her crying 'bout that shit, woah

[Chorus]
Hush, hush, baby, you don't have to cry
I'm not sorry, but I lied
It feel a bit better when you close your eyes, cl-close your eyes
Hush, hush, baby, you don't have to cry
I know you hate me 'cause I'm right
Just close your eyes, this is my
M-m-m-my lullaby

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr., better known by his stage name Lil Wayne, grew up in the Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana.

At the age of nine, Lil Wayne joined Cash Money Records as the youngest member of the label, and half of the duo, The B.G.‘z, with B.G.. In 1997, Lil Wayne joined the group Hot Boys, which also included rappers Juvenile, B.G., and Young Turk. Lil Wayne gained most of his success with the group’s major selling album Guerrilla Warfare, released in 1999. He has been listed in the 2012 Guinness Book Of World Records for the record of Most US Hot 100 Hits By A Rap Artist with 64 hits between 1999 and 2010.

Wayne is famous for his command of slow, witty lines and metaphorical jokes. His discography includes a slew of successful mixtapes, including Dedication 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6; No Ceilings; and Da Drought 3. His albums consistently garner acclaim, with Tha Carter series all platinum hits. Tha Carter series has been a work of Wayne’s for 13 years and continues to grow with the fifth installment, Tha Carter V released in 2018 (however, it was initially supposed to be released in late 2014).
