Lose You - Drake
[Verse 1]
No snow tires, the rain slip-slide like Trick Daddy and Trina
Oli North pull in like 10 million a season
Queens Street visions that nobody believed in
If we not on the charts, my XO n_ggas eatin'
Fifty-two consecutive weekends, shout out to Weeknd
The city gets stronger when everybody is speakin', not when everybody out here beefin'
We got it, now we just gotta keep it
America's most wanted, man I'm still on the run
All these number ones and we still not the ones
No hard feelings, but I'll still get you spun
Went and got diplomas, and we still goin' dumb
Please never label n_ggas who lay down for a living
My competition, it's beyond offensive
I'm in it for the glory, not the honor mention
Not trying to be fourth and inches, I'm tryna go the distance
Yeah, distance, I'm on a different mission
This the remix to Ignition, hot and fresh out the kitchen
How you forget to fill up with gas on a road to riches?
Too overly ambitious, too late to fix it
Too late for condolences when it's over with
I need to start sayin' this sh_t when I notice it
Be open with people I need some closure with
Be honest with myself and take ownership
Opinions started to burn when tables started to turn
I really used to feel like they loved a n_gga at first
Exciting times, revitalized
Trust this little light of mine is going to shine positively
I'm just takin' what God will give me
Grateful like Jerry, Bob and Mickey
Better attitude, we'll see where it gets me
I know catching flies with honey is still sticky
I wrote the book on world-class finesses and tasteful gestures and makin' efforts
And never placin' second
And even better knowin' you're first but then takin' second
Inspiring and never takin' credit
I know I deserve more but just never said it
Two middle fingers as I make an exit
Yeah
[Chorus]
Did I lose you?
Did I? Did I?
Did I lose you?
Did I? Did I?
Did I lose you?
[Verse 2]
Winning is problematic people like you more when you working towards something not when you have it
Way less important for my peers in recent years as I get established
Unforgiving times but f_ck it I manage
Why is my struggle different than others?
Only child that's taking care of his mother as health worsens and bills double
That's not respectable all of a sudden?
I don't get a pat on the back for the come up?
What do you see when you see me?
When did all the things I mean from the bottom of my heart start to lose meaning?
Maybe I share it with too many people
Back then it used to just feel like our secret
Back when I would write and not think about how they receive it
I be tryna manifest the things I needed
And look now I mean it's hard to believe it even for me
But you're mindful of it all when your mind full of it all
How did they go from not wanting me at all to wanting to see me lose it all?
Things get dark but my aura just starts glowing I'm overcome with emotions
Ones I can't access when I'm stoned sober
Jealous ones still envy and n_ggas turn king cobra
I could only speak what I know of
Then we wrote a book on calculated thinking and icy Heineken drinking
And rival neighborhoods linking
And putting your trust into someone with the risk of financially sinkin'
All you did was write the book on garbage ass Rollies
Ego strokin', picture postin'
Claiming that you'd do it for motivational purposes only, but you just had to show me
See I know cause I study you closely, I know when someone lyin'
I notice people standing for nothing and gettin' tired
I know what we're both thinking even when you're quiet
Sometimes I just gotta make sure that I didn't lose you
[Chorus]
Did I lose you?
Did I? Did I?
Did I lose you?
Did I? Did I?
Did I lose you?
