Champagne with breakfast while I'm yawning
You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning
Lord, forgive me, I can't take things slowly (slow)
I'm gone on them once I get going (gone on them, oh)
She tryna take it all off for me
Tryna stay real close to me (close)
I gotta catch myself
I can't play myself
I need to take it

Easy, easy, easy, easy

Money and visa
And you get what you want, always from me
I can't say "No" when you say, "Please"
I can't say "No"
Howisha, you need a
Baby with me, uh

Laughin' it off but I know you're hurtin'
Signs of the times

Taking my time just gets harder to find it
But you're playin' it right, you're playin' me perfect

She tryna take it all off for me
Tryna stay real close to me
I gotta catch myself
I can't play myself
I need to take it

Easy, easy, easy, easy
Easy, easy, easy, easy





I bet I never disrespect you, darlin'
I bet you pardon me, darlin'

Overall Meaning

In Drake's song "Signs," the lyrics depict a luxurious, carefree lifestyle that seems to be caught up in a whirlwind of excitement and indulgence. The opening lines "Champagne with breakfast while I'm yawning, you can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning" suggest a hedonistic approach to life, where the singer is constantly seeking pleasure and enjoyment. The refrain of "Easy, easy, easy, easy" emphasizes the desire for a stress-free, effortless existence.


The song also explores the dynamics of a romantic relationship. The lines "She tryna take it all off for me, tryna stay real close to me, I gotta catch myself, I can't play myself" hint at a seductive encounter, where the singer struggles to maintain control and resist temptation. Despite this internal conflict, he expresses a reluctance to say no, suggesting a willingness to give in to the desires of his partner.


Amidst the lavish lifestyle and romantic interplay, there are glimpses of vulnerability and introspection. The lyrics "I stay to myself, I'll explain myself, I can't play myself" indicate a sense of self-preservation and a desire to protect one's emotions. The mention of "signs of the times" and "laughing it off but I know you're hurtin'" suggests that there may be underlying difficulties or challenges within the relationship.


Overall, "Signs" presents a juxtaposition of indulgence and introspection, showcasing the complexities of relationships within a backdrop of opulence.
