[Intro]

Aye

Yeah

Aye


[Verse: Drake]

On my way to the boat like I ain't just have on a coat when I landed

Owl branded

Perched at the edge of the branches

They don't wanna talk mansions, mine look like a campus

And I'm all about my brothers like the niggas I'm samplin'

I'll leave you red-shirted like the twins from Kansas

Really livin' my dreams I used to have in my aunt's crib

Might throw a Rockefeller chain on in the Hamptons

This shit sound like I'm parked in the alley by ransom

My uncle went bankrupt and he was the last hope

My faith started to dwindle 'cause that was the cash flow

My mom would never walk again, that's what the doc said

So much medication, I was worried she'd drop dead

For real

And I was the good guy, my friends were the hotheads

Times when I thought I should of stuck with my old friends

I might've been at the end of my rope on both ends

The kids I went to high school with got trust funds

But we had more fun, trust

Textin' my promoter, homie beggin' for one plus

Girls wrote me off, didn't think I'd become much

Dinner and a movie all for nothin', that's tough love

Meanwhile, rappers from other cities is cuttin' up

We ain't had the means to really make it, we comin' up

But local niggas actin' like we made it and runnin' up

My heart beatin' fast 'cause I needed to toughen up

We needed to huddle up

I felt like we was doin' all we could but it wasn't enough

Spent a year in Brampton with my girl, just cuddlin' up

'Til one of my niggas hit my phone like you want it or what?

And now, the sound is champion

The singles is dancin', the pills is Ambiens

The lightin' is ambient

The housewives is outside the booth 'cause they can't be in

"Oh, you fancy huh?"

Yeah, I’m the fanciest

They said summer was canceled but I got plans and shit

Where my advances is?

Ladies, it's June, July, where all the Cancers is?

Show me your hands and shit

Even if you ain't a Cancer, throw up your hands to this

'Cause most of y'all cancerous

Michael B. Jordan call you right now, you answerin'

Even if you got a man that love you, you scandalous

You gon' take the chance and shit

You know that relationship is probably in shambles

And you know you a fan of his

Know if he gon' bring you to Miami, you scramblin'

And pack all your luggage, get on the plane and land in it

Yeah, I'm just talkin' outta pocket now, I know y'all sick of me

I looked at the score and y'all can't be countin' the victories

It's still all love between us, despite all the history

It's still October forever, minus the trickery

Talk about a flip the switch challenge

It's been challengin' for ten years

'Cause niggas been out here switchin' on me

And showin' how much realer that some of they bitches can be

This shout goes out to Hov 'cause it's him and then me

For real
