Check the verses I’m writing, you might wanna learn it. You hatin’ my song but your wife wanna burn it. So now you at the store for some blank CDs. You can’t see me, for your sake, might wanna return it. ‘Cause if you bring them discs home to ya girl, she’ll forget you. And I’ll be the only one she concerned with.
-Drake, Do What You Do

Finally here I’mma star with the timing. My swagger is chill and my flow is reclining. This for anybody that’s searchin’ for cash and purchase so fast. You only get the dough when you grindin’ and so I grind like I’m listening to all Wayne. My pain, you can experience through the rhyming, boy.
-Drake, Do What You Do

Nowadays, you sayin’ that I should go Jermaine, I should go Pharrell. Either or my nigga, make sure you don’t get shelled. Make sure your money’s right and they do a promotion well so you could get checks, cut like Benedict in Ocean’s Twelve.
-Drake (feat. Nickelus F), Money (Remix)

Uh look, I’m bold from the get go, go by the title of Drake. And treating me like the rest is a vital mistake!
-Drake (feat. Voyce), Special

You can just love me like they do. I need someone special in you. I know that out there, there’s a few. See, I’ve been searching, I don’t know what to do
-Drake (feat. Voyce), Special

I’m fire on the move, a tire looking smooth. I’m not perfect but I got a desire to improve. I’m special, like kids in a graduating class- having more trouble than others when addin basic math.
-Drake (feat. Voyce), Special

Gotta be special. A girl I can love that sees nothing wrong with getting used to me. Yeah, my name ain’t change but I’m far from the man that I used to be
-Drake (feat. Voyce), Special

They say my father lives through me, so this is just basically how my dad spit. I know my cash come quick when it’s sunny. You know a girl is special if I stick with her honey. If it wasn’t for dummies, chick would still have money.
-Drake (feat. Nickelus F), Money (Remix)

Time don’t wait for none of us that’s why I gotta chase my dreams. Make my momma proud so she can show off all her pearly teeth.
-Drake (feat. Nickelus F), A.M. 2 P.M.

It ain’t as easy as it looks. We go through some shit. You cut us a check, then we go through some hits. Then you show us respect, then we’ll say you legit. And this is the life that I lead from AM to PM.
-Drake (feat. Nickelus F), A.M. 2 P.M.

I’m on set, make it work, break even on 9 to 5’s. Cigarettes and lotto tickets, tryna keep that grind alive.
-Drake (feat. Nickelus F), A.M. 2 P.M.

Lately, I don’t know about the friends that I hang with. I’m nervous ’round my boys, it depends on their anguish, depends on if they saving all the tops on pepsi, with dreams of seeing girls, topless on jet skis.
-Drake (feat. Slakah the Beatchild), Bad Meanin’ Good

I’m from the city where people be gettin’ lazy litterin’ in the streets. And the club district is poppin’ like literally every week. And promoters’ll push flyers, money exchange hands. Liars sell you their dreams, and dummies exchange plans. Hustlers give you events, bouncers give you pass. Directors give ’em a shot, so girls’ll give up the ass.
-Drake, Make Things Right

Look, if you a girl with the aspirations of being in the background witcha asses shakin’, hittin clubs and skippin’ out on the class you takin’, I ask you to have some patience. (You’re worth so much more)
-Drake, Make Things Right

I fell in love with a video girl, I wouldn’t call her name. I got the feelin’ that they all the same.
-Drake, Video Girl

I love to see my black women, strong, single, independent- doing they thing without popping they booty in some rappers. Video, you n’a mean? It’s a wonderful thing, baby.
-Drake, Video Girl

If she beautiful and honey dances, and you always downtown making money transfers. And anything the color of braces she get excited. She always showing up at these places she get invited. She a video girl.
-Drake, Video Girl

Yeah, man, it’s a funny thing going through the winter up here, man. A lot of girls, y’know, wanna get close. You might think they the one, but just wait, nah mean? Take it slow.
-Drake, Come Winter

You special girl, don’t leave me, baby. To find another just like you won’t be easy, baby. So, at least I know where the ones at. Baby, just promise me if you go that you’ll come back.
-Drake, Extra Special

I’m not one for commitment and romancing exactly because I hate waking up undressed with a dame and guessing her name.
–Drake, Extra Special

Chances are most of the day you was lying around. I made money that’s why these girls eyeing me down.
-Drake (feat. Trey Songz), About The Game (Remix)

I’m the only young dude that the big boys watch.
-Drake (feat. Trey Songz), About The Game (Remix)

Yeah, you best believe that I often tend to surpass what the rest achieve, so they don’t like me.
-Drake (feat. Voyce), All This Love

I’ve been hated by many, wanted by plenty, disliked by some, but confronted by none.
-Drake (feat. Nickelus F), A Scorpio’s Mind

Very few give you that truth, it’s either they can’t do it with lyrics or can’t do it in spirit. They cancel what they doing. The samples that they using can’t get through the clearing.
-Drake (feat. Nickelus F), S.T.R.E.S.S.

Picture when I was in school- me being the closest thing to black, and guess what rap music what I was into. Rest of the kids were sheltered. I never liked to fight but when someone called me a “nigger” I’d punch them. I couldn’t help it. Now I’m grown, I can say what it is. It’s parents that got these black and Filipino nannies raising their kids.
