Here Are the Lyrics to Future’s ‘Worst Day’

For a player like Future, Valentine’s Day is the “Worst Day,” and he unloaded the stress of pleasing multiple women on his 2022 single.

The song, released just days before Valentine’s Day, of course, comes on the heels of his first Hot 100 chart topper, his 2021 “Way 2 Sexy” collaboration with Drake.

If you need a guide to follow along with Future’s “Worst Day,” find the lyrics below:

Valentine’s is the worst day

Valentine’s Day, the worst day, got too many to please
I popped a half a pink pill, and put my mind at ease
I bought you all these gifts, tearin’ your heart all in pieces
Tried to pass out new whips, yeah, but all they want is me
Got a Glock under her pillow, she blowin’ for my gang
Not tryna lie to you, I don’t wanna explain
Took off on a store run and jumped on a plane
Every single birthday, another private location

Valentine’s Day, the worst day, got too many to please
Spent over a hunnid Gs and she still wasn’t pleased
I done gave her a hundred Gs, all she want is me
It’s a treat when we meet up, whenever we meet
She just want me to be there on February 14
I come through when I get a chance, but gotta be brief
Tote a LV briefcase, I’m just keepin’ it a G
Made it out the trenches, got more stripes than a zebra
When you got more than one, two, three, four, five, six bi—es
Valentine’s the worst day, when a n—a rich
Got more than one, got Catholics, got Christians
Got a Muslim, got Egyptians, they sayin’ they miss me
Won’t settle for no quickie, got ’em waitin’ up in they Vickies
I leave out and go missin’
I done traveled a long distance, bought a house in another city
Tried to talk to you, but I know you won’t get it
I know if it don’t kill you, you gon’ feel it

Valentine’s Day, the worst day, got too many to please
I popped a half a pink pill, and put my mind at ease
I bought you all these gifts, tearin’ your heart all in pieces
Tried to pass out new whips, yeah, but all they want is me
Got a Glock under her pillow, she blowin’ for my gang
Not tryna lie to you, I don’t wanna explain
Took off on a store run and jumped on a plane
Every single birthday, another private location

Through the laughin’ and the cheerin’, prayin’ for a better day
I’m gettin’ mine, gettin’ it in, smashin’ on acceleration
Do it times ten, upper echelon, heavyweight
Workin’ out my differences with hard work and dedication
Long-distance, in and out, whenever we link up
Trench to the floor, keep a ho to pick my mink up
Make reservations just to check in my coat
My inspiration, never let it drag on the floor
I’m turnin’ up some more, I done been too damn broke
Feel like I’m God-level, so many chicks I adore
Avoidin’ the hurt, ridin’ in circles in a Aventador
Choose one and you gon’ make the other ones feel less important

Valentine’s Day, the worst day, got too many to please (too many to please)
I popped a half a pink pill, and put my mind at ease (put my mind at ease)
I bought you all these gifts, tearin’ your heart all in pieces (tearin’ your heart all in pieces)
Try to pass out new whips, yeah, but all they want is me (all they want is me)
Got a Glock under her pillow, she blowin’ for my gang (she blowin’ for my gang)
Not tryna lie to you, I don’t wanna explain (don’t wanna explain)
Took off on a store run and jumped on a plane (jumped on a jet)
Every single birthday, another private location (private location)

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Forever my lady (ooh-woah, oh)
Forever my lady (woah, oh)
Valentine’s Day, the worst day, got too many to please
I popped a half a pink pill, and put my mind at ease
I bought you all these gifts, tearin’ your heart all in pieces
Tried to pass out new whips, yeah, but all they want is me
Valentine’s Day, the worst day

After Rocky Launch, HitPiece Is Trying to Recruit Artists to the Platform

After sparking music industry outrage over a plan to auction an NFT for every song in the world — without first securing rights holders’ permission — NFT platform HitPiece now reaching out to artists’ teams in hopes of forging official partnerships. Co-founder Rory Felton also tells Billboard the company has hired Gary Greenstein of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati “to represent the company in discussions with rights owners and to advise HitPiece on legal matters.”

After HitPiece’s beta launch in caught the industry’s attention in February for pulling artwork and other information off of Spotify without artists’ permission, the backlash caused Felton’s company to pull its site offline. Days later, the RIAA — on behalf of the major labels — threatened a lawsuit against HitPiece and sent a public demand letter alleging that the NFT company had violated intellectual property rights.

On Feb. 18, in the wake of the controversy, according to correspondence reviewed by Billboard, HitPiece’s artist relations representative Utkarsh Uppal sent emails to artists’ teams with the subject line “Artwork license opportunity for the Metaverse.” In it, the company rep describes an artist partnership with HitPiece to be a “non-exclusive lucrative licensing opportunity” which will “enable fans to express their appreciation for the music they love by letting them display artwork associated with their favorite music on a digital/metaverse shelf when they buy an NFT.”

The emails also stated that “artists can earn a 90% royalty on initial auctions, and a 10% royalty on all resales between fans” and will offer a “cash advance and a partnership opportunity.” It briefly mentions the earlier beta launch, saying simply that “there was a limited beta test, and we are now implementing product features to ensure only Artists can control the minting and sale of their digital goods.” It does not mention the RIAA demand letter.

When Billboard asked the company for comment, Felton replied by saying, “HitPiece is in fact reaching out to artists…We think artists have the right to control their emotional connection with both their music and their fans and HitPiece is working to foster that engagement.” He added that HitPiece offers “some of the most attractive economics to artists for both initial sales and resales of NFTs.”

Felton’s statements mark a distinct pivot from the company’s beginnings last fall, prior to the beta launch, in which HitPiece used the names of bands like Cartel and Copeland in promotional emails, implying that the bands were official partners. But representatives from both bands, including Copeland’s Aaron Marsh, told Billboard they had never discussed NFTs with the company.

When the beta version of HitPiece’s site went up, artists of all sizes — from XXXTentacion to John Lennon to Left at London — were listed as if they had put their work up for auction with HitPiece, but most didn’t know it was happening. “All of my artists on the platform with NFTs up for sale were not authorized,” one independent label manager previously told Billboard. “I had never heard of the site before today, nor met with any representative for them.”

Following its beta launch, Billboard asked a HitPiece representative to explain how artists who were unknowingly listed on the site could get paid for sales of their NFTs. The company responded by stating, “The ability of artists or owners to be paid is a functionality that HitPiece is developing.”

‘Love Is Blind’ Gold Wine Glasses: Where to Buy the Viral Stemware Online

All products and services featured are independently chosen by editors. However, Billboard may receive a commission on orders placed through its retail links, and the retailer may receive certain auditable data for accounting purposes.

There’s a clear star in the second season of Love Is Blind — but it’s not one of the participants. If you’re among the millions of viewers who binge-watched season 2 of the Netflix dating series then you may have noticed that there are gold wine glasses everywhere.

For those unfamiliar with the show, Love Is Blind features 15 men and women who are separated by a wall where they “date” through conversations and essentially “fall in love” and get engaged without seeing each other in person.

The second season debuted Feb. 11, and the finale is scheduled to drop on Feb. 25. Meanwhile, viewers have been flooding social media with jokes (and legitimate questions) about those gold glasses — especially because it seems that the cast members won’t (can’t?) drink out of anything else.

In an interview with Variety, Love Is Blind creator Chris Coelen shared the motivation behind the goblet-style stemware.

“I don’t know. It’s something I like,” she explained. “When you turn on the show, you know it’s our show. It’s a very authentic, really true following of these people’s journeys, but I like the fact that we have this sort of connective tissue with that in a really light way. It’s fun.”

If you’re thirsty for new wine glasses, we’ve listed a few of the places where you can buy a pair (or four) online for less than $50.
