Passionfruit
Drake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hold on, hold on, fuck that
Fuck that shit
Hold on, I got to start this motherfuckin' record over again
Wait a minute
Fuck that shit
Still on this motherfuckin' record
I'ma play this motherfucka for y'all
Ayy, y'all get some more drinks goin' on
I'll sound a whole lot better

Listen
Seeing you got ritualistic
Cleansin' my soul of addiction for now
'Cause I'm fallin' apart
Yeah, tension
Between us just like picket fences
You got issues that I won't mention for now
'Cause we're fallin' apart

Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no

Listen
Harder buildin' trust from a distance
I think we should rule out commitment for now
'Cause we're fallin' apart
Leavin'
You're just doing that to get even
Don't pick up the pieces, just leave it for now
They keep fallin' apart

Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you, no, no

Um, trying to think of the right thing to say

Overall Meaning

He encourages the audience to get some drinks and relax as he plays the song again. As the music starts, the tone shifts to a melancholic one. In the verses, Drake expresses his thoughts on a fragmented and tension-filled relationship. He mentions the challenges of building trust and the distance between him and his partner. He delivers lines about issues and addiction that they are seemingly unable to overcome. The chorus repeats, suggesting that he knows they are falling apart but cannot seem to change the situation. The song ends with Drake contemplating what to say to his partner, but it's unclear whether they will be able to work through their problems.


Overall, "Passionfruit" speaks to the difficulties and complexities of relationships. It touches on themes of trust, distance, addiction, and communication. The song conveys a sense of resignation, as if neither party is willing or able to make the necessary changes to fix the problems. Drake's delivery is understated, with a slightly detached quality that reinforces the idea that the relationship is slipping away.
