I want to be remembered as an artist that gave you a piece of me, as opposed to some surface bullshit. I just want to be remembered as a poet that was open and honest because I wake up every morning and I'm me.
DrakeSince I started, I've always been giving my music away for free. I've always kind of done it for the people. I don't want to lose my fans completely because they support me in a way that's more than just listening to my music. They support me like we're friends. They support me like they have emotions invested in it.
DrakeIntelligent too, ooh you my sweetheart. I've always liked my women book and street smart. Long as they got a lil' class like half days and the confidence to overlook my past ways.
DrakeCouple stares, couple texts, couple dates. Couple 'I think that we're ready's couple 'I think we should wait's
DrakeCause I'm on set, make it work, break even on 9 to 5's. Cigarettes and lotto tickets, tryna keep that grind alive
DrakeI don't know why everyone is making dance movies. I auditioned for three dance movies in the past two months and for one of them I just couldn't do it.
DrakeDamn, tell me where did all the magic go? I followed the rules and told you everything you had to know
Drake& all your friends telling you stories that you often misinterpret and taint all the images of yo Mr Perfect
DrakeThe game ain't always fair and that's the thing though. You can play your heart out, everyone don't get a ring though.
DrakeYou got your guards up, I do too, there's things we might discover. Cause you got a past and I do too, we're perfect for each other.
DrakeGrudges are a waste of perfect happiness. Laugh when you can. Apologize when you should and let go of what you can't change.
DrakeLandmarks to the muses that inspired the music. When I could tell it was sincere without trying to prove it
DrakeYou put the tea in the kettle and light it. Put your hand on the metal and feel it.. but do you even feel it anymore?
DrakeI love Nicki Minaj, I told her Iโd admit it, I hope one day we get married just to say we f-cking did it and girl Iโm f-cking serious, Iโm with it if you with it, cause your verses turn me on and your pants are mighty fitted.
DrakeI want to get better. That's the only way to progress. So I'm just young having fun making music.
DrakeThese days it's hard to meet women. Feel like my love life is finished. I been avoiding commitment. That's why I'm in this position.
DrakeI'll be there for you, I will care for you, I keep thinking you just don't know. Tryna run from that, say you're done wit that, on your face girl it just don't show.
DrakeI like all different kinds of music. I never heavily molded myself after rappers. Sometimes they say when you think something and you go to say it, you lose a lot of color about what you're trying to say, so to me the best rappers are the people that don't lose that color.
